New Shed Supply & Build Here we took out a very tired shed that was taking up way too much precious space in a clients garden. In many newer properties garden space is very small so needs to be well thought out. We reconfigured the space, made a path, created a raised bed with brick surround, created circle seating area and a bench slab area. We introduced electrics into the shed which allows for fairy lights to be used in the garden in the Summer. We can carry out Bridge Design, Architects Drawings, Highways Approval and Full Planning Application.
We have a proud portfolio of landscapers, tree surgeons and experienced gardeners in Ware and surrounding Villages, Hertford, Much Hadham, Buntingford & Stevenage. Having worked in Local Government for nine years and the Private Sector for two years, I felt it was time to put my knowledge and experience to my own advantage. With '18 years experience' in contract management for garden design & maintenace, groundwork and housing maintenance we have a proud portfolio of garden landscapers, tree surgeons, builders and experienced gardeners in Hertfordshire, that have been tried, tested and fully approved by us and our clients.
The use of Paving slabs/Shingles in your garden creates the structure from where all the access and planting schemes start and finish. They are like the skeleton which brings it all into the Form and Shape. The overall base of a garden patio is the lead structure. The planting scheme around it, brings it to life. Coupled with a tasteful driveway they really help show-off an outdoor space and way of accessing your garden.
For advice, detailed estimates, costings, timescales, approximate manpower, The Other Room will provide all the help you need for your garden design service. We have some of the best local tradesmen on board and to hand. This means if you have an idea we can help you to organise it and give you professional advice. We will appraise and then give you honest sound feedback on possible areas of controversy or complications and of course on budgets. We work very closely with an experienced architect and we undertake to liaise with the Planning Department for our clients.
A well thought garden can really influence Buyer if you wish to market the house. It is a worthwhile investment for you to use as the Outdoor Lifestyle you created and crafted to be enjoyed by guests/family/friends. And well chosen plants means it get better year by year unlike indoor design and expenditure! If a panel fence is needed for privacy, how about erecting freestanding trellis panels to obscure the wood. This can then be planted with Euonymous/Pyracanthus for an all year round espalier display.
A bespoke fence can be created unique to your garden. To soften top lines of fence panels add curved trellis. To keep a green garden feel to your boundary fence. This means installing a larchlap or close-board fence panel, top with a curved trellis section, then train climbers (Honeysuckle, Clematis, Roses ) to cover the panel, or even Espalier fruit /fruit trees, across them. It completes the overall appearance of your property and there is a huge range of Sadolin Colours that can blend in to your house colour scheme.
Very often gardens are well designed initially, but shrubs become ‘tired' and outgrown in the location they are in. Sometimes this maybe just adding and removing some plants or trees, but in somecases it may involve whole areas to be revamped and new soil put in too. Over years accumulated acid breakdown from some plants or lack of orgainic tilth in the soil will see you garden run down. We have designed various projects for clients including beautiful barns. We have liaised with the Planning Department and, following approval, have taken the projects through to completion having sourced a specialist builder for the project.
Water run-off, once suitably incorporated in SuDS /Rainwater harvesting using underground storage tanks, Foul water back up protection, and even irrigation can be included in an holistic approach rather than a panic defence. For too long we have been designing water away from properties when really we should have been designing it in.
We have maintained a wealth of different size gardens, from the small back gardens, larger display gardens, to 3.5 acre gardens with ponds, jacuzzi's and irrigation. Whilst on site we can also make recommendations such as spring and autumn feeding for your lawn or moss treatment and scarifying the lawn also. For some clients a monthly schedule is what suits them most and we can incorporate that too. It really is the focal point of any English garden, but needs TLC and my well-trained staff would bring out the best of your less than perfect lawns.
We have a general maintenance or improvement service as well as specialist door/cabinet makers, even sash window and bespoke table are what we have undertaken for our customers. We can replace soffits and fascias and various common areas where wood falls into decal and disrepair. Making and fitting bespoke ash kitchen units, restoring fine ash columns and making from customer design palisade fence.
We have a competent team who can apply themselves to most any project in the most diverse gardens. One team does the basic walls, patios, steps, brick piers, and then we have another team, that specialises in construction brickwork such as summerhouses, outbuildings, garden houses, extensions. Please feel free to ask us about any concerns or just general questions related to a project.
Add soft lighting and skilful planting with a scattering of select aggregates and you have a really wonderful enhancement feature. Incorporating a combination of lighting and water features in your garden can be relatively inexpensive when you consider how much it improves the quality of your garden. It makes it a whole new ‘room' which has a different feeling at night when the senses are focused on just the sound of the water, or with LED lighting then the water and lighting combined makes a great focal point in the garden.
We are developing Barn Conversions as a Service by including local well known Builders in our Developments who have historic knowledge of restoration and construction of existing heritage buildings and new buildings in a sympathetic manner. Using our own expertise and incorporating their years of experience is the best of both worlds. We have a Local independent Architect, keeping charges to a minimum and we undertake ourselves, all the complicated Planning Applications, in house which also keeps costs down.
We are happy to quote for the re-rendering and painting of your home and out-buildings as well as a thorough job of stipping down your windows and painting them with a series of weather proofing coats.
