What is the difference between hard and soft landscaping?
There are some distinct differences between hard and soft landscaping. Hard landscaping primarily involves the construction of hard structures such as patios, walls and fencing which can form the backbone of a garden. On the other hand, soft landscaping encompasses planting trees, shrubs, flowers and the laying of turf to add an additional layer of beauty and colour to your garden.

What are the lead times from agreeing on a project to proceeding with the work?
Lead times for landscaping work can vary depending on multiple factors such as the complexity of design, supplies required and existing workload. However, for general hard or soft landscaping projects without complex designs, the typical lead time is around 3 weeks. This will be discussed with you based on your specific requirements.
How long will the landscaping work take?
The length of time for your landscaping project can vary dependent on the specific work required and the size of the garden.

Larger hard landscaping activities may take longer but will be discussed with you during the planning stages.
