Solihull is known for leafy roads and large detached homes, and the gardens usually match. Big lawns, tall hedges and mature trees give plenty to work with, but they also need thoughtful handling. We provide landscaping in Solihull that respects the character of the plot and brings the terrace, paths, lawn and planting together into one coherent garden.
Whether you want a complete redesign or a series of smaller improvements, we start with a proper walk around the grounds. We note the levels, the trees and the views, then agree a plan, build it ourselves and take all of the waste away once the work is done.
With big gardens, a substantial terrace is often the centrepiece. A large paved area beside the house works for dining and entertaining, with steps or a gentle slope leading down to the lawn. We lay the base carefully, because a large surface shows every dip, and we match materials to the style of the house. Around Solihull, that attention to detail is what separates a garden that merely looks tidy from one that feels finished.
Paths across a larger garden help you move around without trampling the lawn in winter. We design them to follow natural routes, perhaps curving to a seating spot or a vegetable area. Wide lawns often need levelling, feeding or re-turfing, and we handle that groundwork before any planting goes in around the edges. We leave planting until the heavy work is complete, so the beds are never trampled by barrows or delivery trucks.
Mature trees and tall hedges are a defining feature of Solihull, and they influence every decision we make. We keep digging clear of major roots, choose planting that copes with shade and drip, and trim or reduce hedges that have crept too far into the garden. Where something has outgrown its place, we can discuss removing it. Taking a measured approach protects the trees, which are often the most valuable thing in the garden.
Parts of Solihull lie within conservation areas, which may affect trees, walls and boundaries. Rules differ from street to street, so the local council is the right place to confirm what applies to your property. We are glad to describe exactly what we would do, which makes any enquiry to the council quick and clear. Early answers from the council also help you avoid delays once the work is booked.
A large garden does not have to be done at once. Many Solihull customers phase the work: groundwork and terrace first, fencing and hedging next, planting after that. We keep the full plan on file so later stages fit the earlier ones. We also cover Shirley, Knowle and Dorridge, so contact us and we will arrange a visit.

From our base in Hall Green we work across Birmingham, the Black Country, Solihull and parts of Worcestershire. Choose your area.
Yes, and many customers do. We draw up the full plan first, then build it in stages, starting with groundwork and hard landscaping. Each phase finishes tidily with waste cleared, so you can use the garden between stages and plan the next one when ready.
Possibly. Conservation areas can restrict work to trees, walls and some boundaries, and the rules vary by property. Your local council can tell you what applies at your address. We can describe the planned work in plain terms to help that conversation.
We plan access routes and storage areas away from the healthiest turf, use boards where machines or barrows must cross it, and keep materials off the grass. If damage happens, we repair or re-turf the affected area as part of the job.
