How we work

Garden Escapes is a small, core team of specialists. We’re passionate about what we do and we hope that shows.

For us, it’s all about good communication, respect and trust

And that’s how we like to work with our clients too. When you hire us we might follow these steps to start a project:

  • Have an initial meeting to introduce ourselves, listen to your ideas, needs and tastes, and to discuss your budget

  • Perform a site survey and gather the information we need

  • Discuss a rough plan including any concepts and ideas

  • Provide detailed designs including construction drawings and material specifications

  • We’ll give you a quote or a cost estimate for any construction work

Of course, our services are flexible and you’re able to choose all or part of our planning process.

Choose your planting style

If you know what you want from your garden, we’re able to work with your ideas.

Contemporary, lush, cottage, formal, hot Mediterranean, cool colours, urban jungle

We'll draw up a unique planting plan designed to prosper in your garden. By studying the abiotic conditions, we can suggest plants that will flourish in their environment, as well as designing a layout for maximum effect.

Environmental considerations

We believe in the right to create beauty in our lives, but we strive to do that in harmony with the environment. We believe that both can be achieved and relish the challenge of making that happen.

We take the responsibility of our actions as garden landscapers seriously and through a variety of methods we try to design and build gardens that are based upon a concept of environmentally conscious construction.

We want to create bespoke, high quality gardens that quite literally don’t cost the earth

We try to find sustainable solutions in all our projects. Our methods consider the world we live in and aim to minimise harm. Through a deliberate consultation and design process, we try to deliver a garden that fulfils the needs of our clients while having a minimum impact, not only on the surrounding space, but the environment on a global scale.

When choosing materials and products, at Garden Escapes, we try to consider alternative products and methodology, and also what is ‘right’ for the space. We want our clients to enjoy their garden knowing they have stayed loyal to their responsibility to the world.
