Landscaping Services inNewton Abbot & South Devon
From patios and driveways to garden rooms, decking and planting, one dedicated team takes care of every project with the same attention to detail, from the groundwork to the finishing touches.
01
Patios & Paving
Patios built on foundations you'll never see, and never have to think about.
- Natural stone, porcelain, concrete and block paving
- Correctly excavated and compacted sub-base on every job
- Falls set so surface water runs away from the house
- Edgings, thresholds and cut detail finished properly
02
Porcelain Patios
Crisp, low-maintenance porcelain laid to tolerances the material actually demands.
- Slurry-primed, full-bed laying for every slab
- Tight, consistent joints in the correct exterior grout
- Slip-rated surfaces suitable for shaded Devon gardens
- Porcelain steps, copings and edge trims cut to match
03
Indian Sandstone Patios
Natural riven sandstone, carefully laid to bring out its warm colours and timeless character.
- Riven and sawn Indian sandstone, single size or mixed patterns
- Full mortar bed, slab by slab, to take the natural thickness variation
- Slabs blended from several packs so the colour runs evenly
- Pointed with the correct jointing compound, not brushed-in sand

Before you enquire
How we price, plan and carry out the work
How do you price a job?
Always a fixed price. It's calculated from the measured area and the labour time the work genuinely needs, so you know the figure before we start. An hourly rate is only applied to unforeseen or additional work that comes up during the project, and we'll tell you about it at the time, not at the end.
What deposit do you take?
On larger projects there's sometimes an initial deposit of around 10%. In all cases 50% is due once the job has started, with the balance on completion.
Are you insured?
Yes: £2 million public liability cover. The two tradesmen working alongside Phil are self-employed and their work is covered under that same liability insurance.
Do garden rooms need planning permission?
Typically not, we design within permitted development wherever the site allows, and building regulations are always adhered to. Permitted development limits depend on your specific plot, so we check before anything is agreed.
Who does the electrics and plumbing in a garden room?
Those are subcontracted to qualified trades and coordinated around our build programme, so you're not left chasing anyone yourself.
Which areas do you cover?
Teignbridge, Torbay, Exeter and the South Hams, from our base in Denbury near Newton Abbot.
What are your working hours?
8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday.
