“We were the contractors for a recent major refurbishment project, which included a complete redesign of the garden. Janice proposed a highly innovative and attractive scheme for both the hard landscaping and planting. Her approach throughout was highly professional, and I would recommend her without hesitation."

“We found the whole process very easy and enjoyable: Janice listened to and understood our input, and produced a beautiful design for us. Janice talked us through the planting proposals describing all the specified plants, together with options on the hard landscaping materials. We were particularly impressed with Janice’s suggestion for a frameless glass balustrade for our riverside deck, which really enhances our views. We decided to do the landscaping and planting ourselves, and Janice was very happy to come back and help position plants for the best effect. We thoroughly recommend Janice to anyone interested in her garden design services.”

“I wanted to extend and streamline my patio to incorporate a large table for entertaining without removing all the original paving slabs, but did not know how to do this. Janice listened carefully and produced a fantastic design that included all my requests. She was always on hand during the landscaping providing answers to problems and great ideas for planting. I now have a patio that is exactly as I had envisaged which would not have been possible without Janice.” “We needed lighting on our new patio but we wanted to illuminate the area without having glaring spotlights. Janice’s technical knowledge and research provided us with the perfect moonlighting effect for evening entertaining.”

"I had a rough idea of what I wanted and shared this with Janice. Her comprehensive set of questions helped me scope out my requirements in detail. Then she prepared an in depth garden and planting plan for me to review and approve. Once I agreed this, Janice sourced professional landscaping contractors and all plants, furniture and lighting. She worked closely with the landscaping contractor to make sure the job was completed on time and within budget and I’m absolutely delighted with the result."

"Janice listened to our ideas and, by adding her expertise and experience, designed the garden we’d imagined. She carried out the hard landscaping very efficiently and the planting continues to develop how we wanted. A very happy experience."

"Your precise attention to measuring the garden and producing a scaled plan has meant that the hard landscapers have been able to work to your drawings exactly as you drafted them. So no builders' hassle and no extra expense!
Your understanding, advice and ability to visualise our dream during the consultation process, has resulted in a scheme far exceeding our expectations. The drawing which you have produced is a work of art and will be framed and hanging in our gallery when the makeover has been completed."
