Garden Design & Installation

We work with our clients to create beautiful gardens with thoughtful design, quality installation and expert planting

We work on a diverse range of projects. Most involve Design, Installation and Planting to fully transform a space from beginning to end. But some clients, who have the skills to build a garden themselves just need inspiration, vision and Design Plans to work from. Whatever your requirements we can help.

Let's have a chat about
your project

"I'll help you transform your garden
into the ideal outdoor space,
so let's make a start today"

So how does the process work?

The Initial Design Consultation

Our starting point for any project

Initial Design Consultation - this allows Bel to take a tour of the garden with the client, offering inspiration, expertise and ideas and discussing requirements for the space. There'll also be a discussion about budget and time frames for installation. Following the consultation, a brief and proposal of works will be drawn up for the project. Contact Bel to book an initial consultation.

Garden Design Package

The next stage in the process, this includes:

Garden Survey and Site Analysis

Carried out by Bel and her team to assess the site, environment and elevations. Where necessary, Bel will arrange for a Topographical survey of the site.

2D & 3D Garden Design Plans & Documents

Bel creates a detailed 2D Design Plan and 3D Garden Visuals showing the proposed new layout, landscaping features and ideas, Mood Boards. Setting Out Plans and a Scope of Works are provided for the landscape contractor ready for installation. All plans and visuals are created digitally in house, to provide accurate to-scale documents which is important for the landscaper during the quote and build phases.

If you are looking to install the Garden yourselves or you have a Landscaping team lined up to carry out the work, once the Garden Design and Planting Design Package is approved we hand the project over to you. If you have opted for installation by our preferred Landscapers and Planting by our team, then the project proceeds to the next stage...

Garden Design Transformation

Then comes the physical part of the process which involves:

Installation by a Landscape Contractor

Installation of the Design (by external contractors) - Bel can introduce clients to local experienced landscapers who will carry out the works to a high standard, following the scope of works and soil improvements specifications provided.

Planting Installation

Plant Sourcing - With plant nursery contacts through out the UK, Bel will source top quality plants and arrange delivery to site on the first day of planting.

Installation of Planting - Bel is a hands-on plantswoman, carrying out the planting on each project and bringing in skilled gardeners to help if and when required. Find out more about Planting Services

We are absolutely delighted with our beautiful new garden designed and installed by Bel! We had an unusually shaped garden which we didn't have the knowledge to handle, but at the same time had quite specific ideas of what we liked and disliked. Bel listened to our ideas and the challenge didn't phase her at all! The preparation of the the soil by her team, and the planting of the garden by Bel herself over three days couldn't have gone smoother. We would highly recommend Bel in terms of her expertise, conscientiousness and friendly, easy going personality and we can't stop looking at our amazing new garden!

Mrs Prist, Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire

"Bel is brilliant. Easy to work with. Lots of ideas and plans but great at listening and quickly tapping into what you like, want and need. She has bags of style with a healthy dose of practicality and is 100% reliable. Totally recommend."

Mrs Munden - Thrussington, Leicestershire

/

"Bel delivered professional advice in a friendly way after she had established what her clients wished to achieve. All in all - it has been a pleasure to work with her"

Mrs Harrison - Woodhouse Eaves, Leicestershire

/

"If you are looking for advice on your garden or a new designs then look no further than Bel Grierson. We have used her on several aspects of our garden to lower the maintenance and update the planting with spectacular results. Bel is easy to work with and is totally in tune with all our requirements."

Mr Stapleton - Rothley, Leicestershire

/

"Bel has delivered a delightful garden with a design that has transformed a shallow plot surrounded by fences, into a garden full of interest. Bel listened carefully to our concerns and gave her total attention to each step of the way."

Mr & Mrs Bayley - Loughborough, Leicestershire

/

"Our 20 year old garden was looking tired and boring. No colour and a mishmash of plants that were past their sell-by date. We had no idea what to do to rescue the situation as we knew very little about what plants would do well. Then we found Bel. Our garden is transformed; beautiful colour that just keeps coming all through the year, easy maintenance and a joy to sit and look at with an appropriate glass in one hand. Bel interpreted our thoughts perfectly and has produced an extraordinary result. She is patient with non-gardeners, knowledgeable and highly professional. Not afraid to get her hands dirty and endlessly helpful. I simply cannot recommend her too highly."

Mr & Mrs Benussi - Ashby de la Zouch, Leicestershire

/

"Bel redesigned and planted our garden this summer. It has transformed it from dark and dingy to a fresh open space. Bel is a pleasure to work with, friendly and helpful, full of ideas and always ready to listen to what you want and find the best way of delivering it. Recommended!"

Mr Goodman - Loughborough, Leicestershire

/

"Bel provided good advice and warm, friendly and professional support at all stages of our garden transformation. Her knowledge about plants and her design ideas gave us confidence from the outset. We are delighted with the result, and now look forward to enjoying our new garden in the months and years to come."

Mr Corner - Rearsby, Leicestershire

/

"Bel has recently redesigned a large area in my garden which was previously a 'wilderness'. I was very pleased with the design that she came up with - it was clear that she had paid attention to what I had said I wanted and understood my style. Great communication throughout the process and now that the planting is finished I am looking forward to next spring and watching it develop."

Mrs Phillips - Ratby, Leicestershire

Thank you very much Bel for your design to renovate our back garden. It’s been great to work with you, we really appreciated spending time with you to hear your ideas and develop those with you for a new vision for our garden. We love the pond and wild at the back of the garden and the new plants you’ve sourced have all settled in very well and we are excited to see how they will grow!

Mr & Mrs Adshead, Loughborough

/

Absolutely delighted with our new garden. Bel’s design carefully incorporated all of our wish list and much much more.
Receiving the designs far exceeding our expectations and her subsequent coordination with her recommended landscapers made the project go without a hitch allowing us to work full time throughout, returning home to a little more transformation each day!
Her planting scheme was the cherry on the top. It's beautiful and we couldn't be happier with it. Eight weeks post planting the garden is thriving and we're really enjoying pottering around tending to it as per Bel's comprehensive maintenance instructions.
We couldn't be more delighted - thank you.

Mrs Fraser - West Leake
