Low maintenance high impact garden

Marlow, Buckinghamshire

Our landscaping expertise was called on to help create a low maintenance garden front and back with a focus on family enjoyment. This project included creating driveways, paths and patios. Laying hardwearing artificial grass and creating a bespoke sports pitch. With easy to maintain flower borders and raised vegetable beds.

The brief

We were commission by local garden designers Coleby and Faulkner to bring to life their vision of turning a compact outdoor space into a low maintenance, high impact garden with something for all the family to enjoy.

How we did it

After clearing the site, we began the construction work on the back garden with the aim of creating different areas for the different family members, including:

Pathways connecting a raised patio and evening terrace paved in porcelain stone
A bespoke sports pitch with built in goal post made from artificial turf and finished with authentic sports arena fencing
A sunken trampoline, discreetly housed behind a complimentary planting scheme
An integrated, hidden shed to maximise all available space and creating practical storage solutions
A lawn of artificial turf
We were able to retain the existing fence but made it look like new with repairs and a lick of paint.

The renovation continued at the front of the property where we:

Made the driveway more useable and finished it in a stabilised shingle laid on top of honeycomb cells.
Created a front lawn area that housed bespoke raised vegetable beds to allow the clients to grow-their-own produce.

The works were completed in 3 months.

I was recommended Thames Valley Landscapes by our garden designers, Coleby and Faulkner. Right from the start, Paul was engaged and keen to help us make the right decisions to fit the budget and deliver the look we were seeking. He gave me huge confidence that they know what they were doing and could deliver on time and budget.

Through the build, Paul was always willing to answer questions and personally deal with issues promptly as they arose, such as designing and building a replacement shed when our neighbour complained about the original location. The team was very tidy and polite, and we certainly felt very comfortable having them around. We were really pleased with the end result and the final cost, and will happily recommend Thames Valley Landscapes to others.
