Landscaping in Knutsford
Homes in Knutsford
The centre of Knutsford is a conservation area with many older buildings. If your home is in it, check what applies to your property before you settle on a design. The photo on this page shows our finished work on another job: a rectangular swimming pool with dark stone coping and a pale stone surround beside a white rendered house, where the dark coping gives a crisp edge against the paler stone. That sort of edge detail is planned with the layout, not added at the end. The review beside it credits the design talent behind a whole-garden project.
“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 landscaping in Knutsford
The work runs in a clear order. We dig out and sort the drainage, build any retaining walls and steps, then lay terraces and paths on a properly compacted sub-base with a fall away from the house. Planting comes last. For a quote, use the call button and tell us roughly what the garden is like now and what you want to change.
- Drainage, digging out and retaining walls sorted before any surface goes down

Questions about landscaping in Knutsford
Can a deck or pergola be part of the same project?
Yes. We handle garden design, groundworks, hard landscaping and planting, so a deck can be planned with the rest of the garden. Steps, balustrades, screening and pergolas are built into the deck's own structure rather than added afterwards.
What decides how a terrace looks when it is finished?
The material sets the tone, but the detailing completes it: coping, edge courses, steps and the alignment of the joints. Underneath, the sub-base and the falls decide whether it stays level and clean.
