• initial meeting

At this meeting our portfolio and method of working are discussed. We will ask what you want from your garden, any restrictions for us to work around, a rough budget and discuss our fees. The design is staged to maximise your involvement throughout the process. Fees are payable at the completion of each stage and there is no obligation to run through all stages.

• survey

The next step is to visit the garden and carry out a measured survey for our base plan and a detailed photographic survey.

• outline plan.

We will prepare a coloured Outline Plan/Sketch Design which will include all the basic elements in the proposed design. We then discuss this Outline Plan to make amendments and adjustments and agree the type of planting and hard landscaping to be detailed in the Masterplan.

• masterplan

A hand drawn coloured Masterplan, Planting Plan, Visual and Plant Maintenance Programme are prepared for the next meeting.

• quantities and specifications

Quantities of materials along with the Masterplan and specifications are given to the landscape contractor. At this point you will also receive a firm quotation on the cost of the total project. The costings are broken down to allow you to see where your money is going.

• build consultancy

Consultancy throughout the build and planting ensures completion to the very highest of standards and our customer’s complete satisfaction.

• planting

Planting is carried out using the highest quality plants, hand chosen and delivered onto site by Paperbark prior to planting by oursleves.

• maintenance

A maintenance schedule is provided with the Masterplan so that you can look after the garden or engage Paperbark to maintain the garden until it becomes established.
