Garden Bed Design
Beds planned around your soil, sun and how much time you've got.
How does garden bed design work?
A garden bed that fights its conditions is a garden bed you'll be replanting every year. We plan beds around what the site actually gives you, sun and shade through the day, drainage, exposure to wind and salt, and how much maintenance you honestly want to do.
That covers the shape and edge of the bed, soil preparation, plant selection and layout, mulching, and a straightforward plan for keeping it going.
It works for a single tired front bed just as well as a full re-plan of the yard.

FAQ
Garden Bed Design, your questions answered
Can you work with the plants I already have?
Usually, yes. Existing shrubs and trees often set the structure of a bed, we'll keep what's healthy and worth keeping and design the rest around it.
Will the plants you choose survive here?
That's the point of designing rather than just buying plants. We select for your sun, soil, exposure and how much watering you're realistically going to do.
How often should I have this done?
It depends on the job and the season, lawns and hedges want a regular rhythm through the warmer months, while bigger garden work is usually a once or twice a year thing. We will suggest an interval that suits your yard, and on a Golden Circle Membership plan we track the timing so it never gets forgotten.
Do I need to be home while you work?
Not necessarily. As long as we can get to the yard and to an outdoor tap if the job needs water, plenty of our residential work is done while you're out, we confirm everything beforehand and send photos when it's finished.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, Golden Landscaping is fully insured, and we're owner-operated, so the person who quotes your job is the person responsible for the result.
Is the quote really free and fixed?
Yes. Quotes are free and fixed, you'll know the price before we start, with no hourly meter and no surprises on the invoice. A quick call with a couple of photos is usually all we need.
Do you take the green waste away?
Yes. Clippings, prunings and garden debris can be mulched back where that suits, left in your green bin, or taken away with us, just tell us which you would prefer when you book.
