Garden Design in Wilmslow
Homes in Wilmslow
Many homes in Wilmslow are large detached family houses. With a large plot it is easy to end up with separate pieces that never quite connect: a patio here, a shed there, a lawn nobody crosses. A plan for the whole garden avoids that. It settles where the family will actually spend time, such as a terrace close to the house, a seating spot in the part that gets the most sun, and open lawn for play. Near the centre, older houses sit alongside, and we keep the house in mind when choosing materials. The photo on this page shows a finished garden of ours with a circular sunken seating area, a firepit and a curved bench set into artificial grass. The reviewer beside it praised how a small project grew into a full transformation.
“We cannot recommend WilsonJones Landscape Design highly enough. We are absolutely delighted with the results. Stephen has totally given our back garden the “Wow factor”, with an absolutely stunning transformation. What started as a small project, evolved into something we’d never have imagined for our own garden. This was mainly thanks to Stephen’s bold suggestions and great design talents Retaining walls, steps, elevated decking area with a glass balustrade, artificial lawn, and to top it all off, a beautiful fish pond, with cascading “water blade” waterfall. What looks wonderful during the day, looks absolutely amazing at night when the lights are switched on. We get loads of comments and admiration from the neighbours, and visitors too. We are completely over the moon with the whole project. Couldn't wish for better! Thank you Stephen.”
What matters for garden design in Wilmslow
For Garden Design in Wilmslow, the visit is about the garden as it stands today. We look at how water drains, where light falls and how the levels change across the plot. Then we work out how terraces, walls and steps sit with the planting. You see the layout and the chosen materials before we put a price on the work.
- We walk the garden with you and talk through how your household wants to use it
- Levels, drainage and light are checked on site
- The layout is drawn with paving, structures and planting planned together
- Materials are agreed with you, then we quote for the build
Questions about garden design in Wilmslow
Do you only design, or can you build the garden too?
We build as well. Our landscaping covers groundworks, drainage, walls, terraces, structures and planting, from a tidy back garden to a whole-plot rework. The same team carries the job from excavation through to planting.
Will we know what the garden will look like before we get a price?
Yes. We agree the layout and the materials with you before the work is quoted, so the price is for a design you have already seen.
What matters most when a terrace goes in next to the house?
Wherever it sits, a patio should fall slightly away from the house so rainwater runs off, and it lasts longest on a properly dug and compacted sub-base.
