Gardens are spaces that should reflect your personal style
whilst giving you the functionality that you require.

Having a well designed plan is crucial to the success of your landscape.
Our award winning design team will look to bring your garden together
in a way that compliments your home and suits your needs.

 

The Garden Company design service comes together in 3 stages:

1. Design Consultation & Proposal

The design consultation establishes what you want to achieve and what is possible for your garden. One of The Garden Company designers will meet with you to discuss how you would like to use your space. After establishing your requirements and personal style, different materials and plant selections can be discussed endeavoring to inspire you with a realistic dream for your garden.

At this meeting a construction budget will be discussed as well as a time frame. We charge a fee of $250 inc. GST for the consult which takes approximately 2 hours. After the Design Consultation, you will be provided with a design proposal that explains the fees and costs involved as well as a description of what you can expect to receive during the design stages. Our presentations can be customised to suit your needs with options ranging from black& white plans to full colour 3D presentations.

 

2. Concept Plans

Drawing on your input from the design consultation, our designer will produce an initial concept design for your review and feedback. After any revisions are incorporated into the concept, a meeting will be arranged to present the design concept and discuss the key elements such as spatial layout, focal points, views and vista, and structural features such as Pergolas, Decks, Pools & Spas, Outdoor Kitchens and Water Tanks. You will be provided with a construction estimate as well as a selection of material samples and images to help you visualise your future garden.

 

3. Construction Documents

Once your design concept is finalised we develop the construction documents. This involves the drafting of both hard and soft landscape plans, any relevant elevations and detail drawings with the option to have a lighting plan developed for maximum garden appeal.
The construction drawings then enables us to provide you with a detailed construction quote and we can begin to prepare a schedule of works.

 

 

Follow Up Services

With the planning complete and the construction in full swing you’ll be comforted to know that we provide some follow up services both during and beyond the construction that helps to ensure your garden reaches its full potential. By offering Project Management our designers are on hand during the construction period to ensure your garden maintains its integrity. We can provide you with a quote for this service when you receive the construction documents. To be confident that your garden will perform at its best, our designers are able to put together a Garden Maintenance Schedule for your garden with monthly and annual recommendations.
