THE BASILDON PROCESS

From vision to reality — your garden transformation journey

  1. 1

    Discovery

    2-3 days

    We walk your site together, mapping microclimates and reading soil stories. Understanding Basildon's unique conditions — from clay challenges to coastal influences — shapes every recommendation.

  2. 2

    Concept

    1-2 weeks

    Initial sketches evolve into detailed proposals. Mood boards capture the feeling, material samples bring texture to life, and planting palettes reflect your personal style and local ecology.

  3. 3

    Detail

    1 week

    Technical drawings specify every level change, drainage solution, and lighting position. Construction details ensure longevity while material schedules keep everything on track and budget.

  4. 4

    Build

    3-8 weeks

    Your vision takes physical form through skilled craftsmanship. Daily progress photos keep you connected to the transformation, while careful sequencing protects existing plants and minimizes disruption.

  5. 5

    Aftercare

    Ongoing

    Gardens evolve with seasons and years. Our aftercare visits fine-tune irrigation, adjust plant positioning, and provide seasonal maintenance guidance to ensure your landscape matures beautifully.
