The Fundamentals Of Garden Design

By John Buckley


If you are intrigued about garden designs, well, this is for you. We here at Wiltshire Turf work with clients to establish a variation of particular garden solutions and designs. So, this article runs through the services we - and companies in your region - may offer. We hope this will grant you insights on the necessary steps to make the best of your garden. Ask yourself; what does your back garden really mean to you?

When we first began our primary service was turfing. And, while we still rotovate, level and lay lawns throughout Swindon and Wiltshire today, landscape gardening companies offer many other complimentary services too. These may include services such as topsoil delivery, decking, fencing and tree-surgery. All pillars of enhancing your garden space.

Now, while turf is very simple to lay, we find that a lot of our customers prefer to employ us to carry the labour and ask for advice on the best way to sustain their lawn. So, what we tell our customers is that you'll need to establish a foundation of 2 to 6 inches of topsoil for the roots and rhizomes to become established. Once this is done, adequate quantities of water are needed to hydrate your new lawn.

Decking is an additional feature many like to supplement their garden lawn with. In recent years, decking has developed in popularity. It is often the solution home-owners opt for in a couple of key considerations. These including allowing their garden to cater for family and social congregations and the additional upside is that decking improves the prospects of selling on a property.

Thank you for taking the time to read this article. Service can vary from company to company so do your research and search for references and an established track record before selecting your contractor. Of course, if you have any further enquiries please drop us an email and we'll be happy to help.
