The initial consultation gives you the client, a chance to meet us, and for us to view your site and listen to your brief and individual requirements.

We can immediately offer guidance and suggestions and let you know just what is possible. 

After this initial meeting, if you consider Boxwood Gardens to have the capacity to deliver your project, we will arrange for a full site survey and produce some basic drawings and plans.

Boxwood Gardens are more than happy to offer the initial consultation visit, free of charge.

The Site Survey can be carried out at a time to suit you (including weekends) and will give Boxwood Gardens a chance to take an in-depth analysis of your proposed garden site.

At this point, we will also take direction from you as to your likes and dis-likes, things that you will definitely be requiring and those that you won’t.

The Site Survey will be highly detailed and will include the taking of measurements, photo’s, aspect (orientation of the sun) soil types & structure, boundaries, provision of drainage, site access, levels & elevations, existing buildings & planting. The Site Survey is essential for the drawing up of plans and planting schedules.

It is also important for determining whether any planning applications may have to be made.

As soon as we have had a chance to collate all of the data and your requirements, we will commence the process of producing 2D rendered drawings, 3D visuals, full planting schemes and any requirements for garden lighting.

At this point, we will also advise on any planning applications that may have to be made and discuss any requirements for drainage or irrigation that we feel may be required.

All Conceptual Designs will be totally bespoke and tailored to your exact requirements. We will be more than happy to make any changes, revisions or amendments that you may have.

A charge is made for all Conceptual Garden Design work that Boxwood Garden’s provide (fees to be agreed before commencement) however, these fees will be credited in full if you choose to have any subsequent construction work carried out by ourselves.

The Master Plans will show all final details of your garden project. These will include any patio/decking, areas of lawn, fencing, planting, water features/Art work, lighting/electrical, seating areas, garden structures (summer houses, sheds, pergolas etc.) or any other items or areas requested.

These plans will enable estimates/quotations and other costings to be made as well as providing working drawings for construction teams.
