Garden Construction

Construction is rarely a client's favourite part of the process! It is almost unavoidable however. Services and foundations need to be installed, whilst hard surfaces and water will give a garden much of its future structure, and will form durable and practical elements of the garden for years to come.

My company Firth Gardens constructed gardens for over thirty years and I have experience of a very wide range of different materials, construction methods, and finishes. These days I no longer offer full constructional services but can recommend capable and trusted landscapers to undertake work that I have either designed or specified. This work can include:


  • Installation of services (drains, electricity, lighting, water and irrigation pipework)
  • Foundations
  • Retaining and free standing walls
  • Patios and paths
  • Pergolas, arbours, gazebos, trellissing and other woodwork
  • Ponds, waterfalls and fountains
  • Irrigation systems
  • Lighting
  • Drives, SUDS compliance
  • Reedbed filtration systems
  • Green roofing
  • Soft landscaping (soil importing, bed construction, planting, turfing, training, after-care).

I am happy to subcontract to specialist landscapers whose work I know, or to work in conjunction with client nominated outside contractors where both teams bring differing expertise or efficiencies to the job.

Please contact me for a discussion, without
obligation, of your project and its requirements.
