Hard and Soft Landscaping for Manchester Gardens

Landscaping is where the separate jobs in a garden come together: the patio, the paths, the lawn, the fencing and the planting, set out so they work as one space. We're a local, family-run business based in Failsworth, and we plan and build gardens across Manchester and Greater Manchester.

Hard landscaping is the built structure: paving, walls, steps, edging and drainage. Soft landscaping is the living part: turf, planting beds and borders. Getting the hard work right first, with proper levels and falls, is what lets the soft work thrive.

Whether you want one corner sorted or the whole garden reworked, we'll visit, measure up and suggest ideas free of charge.

Our Landscaping Services

Lawns, fences and sheds: pick a service to see how we do it, or ask us to plan the whole garden on one visit.

What a Garden Makeover Can Include

Patios and Paths

Level, well-drained paving that links the house to the garden, in natural stone, porcelain, block paving or resin.

Lawns, Real or Artificial

Fresh turf on a properly prepared soil bed, or artificial grass on a compacted stone base where a real lawn struggles.

Decking

Timber or composite decks for sloping plots, raised seating areas or the corner that catches the evening sun.

Walls, Steps and Raised Beds

Brickwork that deals with changes in level and gives planting a clean, defined edge.

Planting Beds and Borders

Beds dug, edged and prepared with good soil so new planting gets the best possible start.

Sheds and Storage

A shed on a proper level base, positioned so it is easy to reach and does not dominate the garden.

What Affects the Cost of Landscaping

Every garden is different, so we price each job after a free visit and give you a clear written quote. These are the things that make the biggest difference.

  • The size of the garden and how much of it is changing
  • Materials chosen for paving, walls, decking and lawns
  • Changes in level, steps or retaining walls
  • Drainage work and the condition of the existing ground
  • Access for machinery and how much waste needs removing

How we carry out the work

How We Carry Out a Garden Makeover

No pressure at any stage, and nothing is booked until you have the price in writing.

Visit and Ideas

We survey the garden with you, look at levels, drainage and access, and suggest layouts and materials that suit how you use the space.

Clearance and Groundwork

Old paving, tired lawns and overgrowth come out, then we dig to the right depth and set levels so water runs away from the house.

Hard Landscaping

Sub-bases, paving, walls, steps, edging and fencing go in first, because they set the shape of everything else.

Soft Landscaping and Tidy Up

Turf, artificial grass and planting beds are finished last, then we clear our waste and sweep down, so the garden is ready to enjoy.

Garden Landscaping Questions

What's the difference between hard and soft landscaping?

Hard landscaping covers the built elements: patios, paths, walls, steps, edging and drainage. Soft landscaping is the living side, such as lawns and planting beds. Most makeovers need both, and we usually build the hard landscaping first.

Can you do the whole garden in one go?

Yes. Doing it as one job means levels, drainage and materials are planned together, and the garden is only disrupted once. We can also phase the work if you would rather spread it out.

Do you help with the design?

We offer free design ideas as part of the quote visit. We'll suggest layouts and materials based on the size, aspect and levels of your garden and how you want to use it.

Will my garden be left in a mess?

No. We remove old materials and our own waste as we go, and the site is swept and left tidy when we finish. Keeping a tidy site is a big part of how we work.

Do you work outside Manchester itself?

Yes. From our base in Failsworth we cover Greater Manchester, including Oldham, Rochdale, Bury, Bolton, Salford, Stockport, Trafford and Wigan.
