Front Path Replacement

An old, excavated front path torn up by a mini-digger was re-laid with large natural stone slabs framed by a warm block-paver soldier course, flanked by fresh mulched beds and a new tarmac drive — a clean, welcoming entrance to the front door.

Circular Lawn & Curved Path Garden

An uneven, leaf-strewn lawn and tired deck were reshaped into a structured garden — a natural stone patio leads to a sweeping gravel path, two circular turf lawns and a central bowl planter, with fresh dark soil borders framing the curves.

Driveway Replacement & Resurfacing

A worn-out front drive was excavated and re-prepared with a compacted sub-base, then finished in smooth black tarmac edged with light-grey block pavers and a patterned tile doorstep — a clean, hard-wearing entrance that complements the brick facade.

Sunken Fire Pit Seating Area

A gravel-filled sunken pit with bare concrete walls and soil-filled planters was built out into a contemporary outdoor lounge — rendered perimeter walls, a central two-tier fire pit with a dark stone cap, L-shaped charcoal-stained timber bench seating and large-format light-grey porcelain tiling, all framed by a cedar slat privacy screen.

Two-Tier Patio & Pergola Build

A muddy, half-built breeze-block retaining wall and excavated site was transformed into a two-tier sandstone patio with a wide stone step, pergola posts and a fresh lawn — finished level with the bi-fold doors for seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

Patio Refit & Pergola Installation

A cluttered, debris-strewn lawn scattered with old furniture and building waste was cleared and rebuilt with a multi-tonal sandstone patio, a neat rectangular turf lawn, a buff-brick raised planter and a timber pergola over a secondary seating area.

Patio Refit & Artificial Lawn

A tired patio with a weedy stone planter and patchy lawn was relaid with multi-tonal natural stone slabs, a new timber sleeper retaining wall and a lush artificial lawn — a low-maintenance garden that stays green year-round.

Front Drive Resurfacing

A muddy, leaf-strewn front plot parked on dirt was been resurfaced with fresh dark asphalt, framed by crisp light-grey block-paver borders and a diagonal run leading to the garage — a clean, hard-wearing finish to the front of the house.

Garden Steps & Raised Terrace

Overgrown, crumbling steps swallowed by vegetation were rebuilt with new sandstone treads, rustic brick retaining walls and a paved upper terrace with a sleeper planter — opening the garden back up with a clean, usable route.

Patio & Raised Koi Pond Water Feature

A bare, excavated plot broken open with a mini-digger was transformed into a finished sandstone patio with a raised brick koi pond, a crushed-slate border and a manicured lawn — all framed by the existing hedge.
