Our Process: Garden Design & Build

Choosing the right landscaping company is about more than finding someone who can lay a patio or install fencing. You want a team that communicates clearly, works professionally and delivers the finished garden they promised. At LS Garden Design & Build, we’ve developed a straightforward process that keeps every project organised from the first conversation through to the final clean-up.

Whether you’re planning a complete garden transformation, a new patio, driveway or fencing installation, our process is designed to give you confidence at every stage.

Step 1: Initial Consultation

Every project begins with a conversation.

We’ll discuss what you’d like to achieve, how you use your outdoor space and any ideas you’ve already collected. Whether you’re looking for a modern entertaining area, a practical family garden or improved kerb appeal, we’ll take the time to understand your priorities.

We’ll also discuss:

  • Your budget
  • Timescales
  • Design preferences
  • Materials
  • Practical requirements
  • Any drainage or access considerations

This initial consultation helps us understand exactly what you’re looking for before recommending the most suitable solution.

Step 2: Site Survey

Once we’ve discussed your ideas, we’ll carry out a detailed site survey.

Every garden presents different challenges, so we assess factors such as:

  • Existing ground levels
  • Drainage
  • Access
  • Existing structures
  • Soil conditions
  • Services and utilities
  • Measurements

This allows us to recommend practical solutions while ensuring the finished garden is built to last.

Step 3: Quotation

Following the survey, we’ll provide a clear, detailed quotation.

Our quotations explain exactly what work will be carried out so you understand what’s included before any work begins.

If you have any questions, we’re always happy to explain the proposed work before you make a decision.

Step 4: Planning the Project

Once you’re happy to proceed, we’ll agree a suitable start date and organise everything needed before work begins.

This includes:

  • Ordering materials
  • Scheduling deliveries
  • Preparing equipment
  • Confirming project timings

Careful planning helps minimise disruption while ensuring work progresses efficiently once we arrive on site.

Step 5: Construction

This is where our biggest difference becomes clear.

Many landscaping companies divide their workforce across several projects, meaning different people arrive throughout the job and work can be delayed while teams move between sites.

At LS Garden Design & Build, we work differently.

The same experienced team stays with your project from the first day until completion. We don’t leave your garden to start another project elsewhere before yours is finished. This allows us to maintain consistent workmanship, keep communication simple and ensure every detail receives our full attention.

Step 6: Final Inspection

Before we consider any project complete, we carry out a thorough inspection.

We check every aspect of the installation to ensure it meets our standards and your expectations.

We’ll walk through the completed project with you, answer any questions and make sure you’re completely satisfied with the finished result.

What You Can Expect While We're On Site

We understand that having work carried out at your home can be disruptive. That’s why we aim to make the installation process as straightforward as possible.

While every project is different, our customers can expect:

  • Professional and courteous tradespeople
  • A tidy and organised work area
  • Respect for your property
  • Regular progress updates
  • Safe working practices
  • Careful handling of materials and equipment
  • A completed project before we move on to another job

Our goal is to complete every project as efficiently as possible without compromising on quality.
