Why employ a garden designer?

1.	Helps to develop an overall concept
2.	Sound practical horticultural advice will always be at hand.
3.	Allows the client to visualise ideas.
4.	Detailed drawings enable the client to obtain competitive quotes from landscape contractors.

How does the service work?

Our customers will always be given a rough guide price for the service on initial contact for example at a trade fair or over the phone. If you wish to go ahead we arrange a free no obligation visit, for us to meet you, discuss your requirements, view photographs and plans of completed projects. During this meeting we can give you an accurate quotation for the design costs.

Once commissioned the site will be carefully surveyed, photographed and notes will be taken on all existing features. Concept sketch proposals will then be drawn up. These give an overall ideaof the design themes, what features will appear and how these will be connected to the planting scheme.

Once the client has approved the concept, the drafting of scaled  A1
master plans and planting schedules can begin. Full colour master plans are available at an extra cost. The drawings will be returned to the customer encapsulated in a protective plastic cover, allowing them to be used in all weather.

What if you need help building your garden?

We work on a regular basis with various landscape contractors. All are experienced, reliable and able to construct a great variety of garden styles.

Planting

Plants are hand picked from our regular suppliers and delivered to the site. Once all the hard landscaping is complete Addis Garden Design carry out the planting and make all the finishing touches.

Aftercare

From spring 2003 we will be offering a competitive maintenance service for only gardens we have created. This will keep us in close contact with our customers, and means we will always be on hand to give advice and help with the development of the garden over a period of time.
