Residential Landscaping & Garden Transformation
From overgrown to outstanding: garden clearance, landscaping and planting for Dorset homes.
Most of our garden landscaping starts where tree work ends: the conifers are down, the stumps are ground, the light is back, and suddenly the garden is full of possibility. We do the transformation that follows, and increasingly, whole-garden projects in their own right.
Purbeck and Dorset gardens have their own character: cottage planting against stone, wind-shaped coastal plots, chalky banks and clay hollows. We plant what thrives here, not what the catalogue is pushing.
What we deliver
Garden clearance & transformation
Overgrown plots opened up, unwanted trees and stumps removed, ground prepared. The full reset.
Planting schemes
Trees, native hedging, shrub and border schemes designed for Dorset conditions, planted properly and guaranteed by aftercare.
Lawns & turfing
Ground preparation, turfing and seeding, and wildflower lawn alternatives for lower-mow living.
Hedges & boundaries
New hedges, renovations of tired ones, and garden fencing from closeboard to picket, with one team for the whole boundary.
Mulch & finishing
Our own kiln-yard wood chip mulch, delivered and laid: beds finished, weeds suppressed, moisture kept.
Why start with the tree people
Landscaping firms hit a wall when the job includes real trees: the leaning sycamore, the TPO'd oak, the stumps in the way. We don't. Because the tree work, stump grinding, machinery and landscaping are one team, your garden project doesn't stall waiting for another trade, and the arisings from the clearance often become the mulch on your new beds.
Built to still look good in five years
Anyone can make a garden look good on handover day. We stake and guard planting properly, prep ground rather than disguise it, and offer aftercare visits through establishment, because the photo that matters is the one three summers from now.
Frequently asked questions
- Do you design gardens or just build them?
- We offer practical design for planting schemes and garden layouts in-house, and we're glad to build to a garden designer's plan, and we price from drawings regularly.
- Can you do the whole job: trees, stumps, landscaping and fencing?
- Yes, that's our sweet spot: one quote, one team, no waiting between trades.
- When's the best time for a garden transformation?
- Clearance and hard work suit autumn and winter; planting loves late autumn and early spring; turf takes best outside high summer. We'll phase the project to the calendar.
