    Great team, even better results

    Posted 29 October

    Great work carried out by the team, had arris rail fences replaced, new decking area created and an old gravel area covered with astroturf. Dan brought his experience together to help us during the quoting process get the right solution for the garden. Team kept in communication throughout and couldn’t be happier with the end result

    Extra fence panel and drainpipe installation

    Posted 27 October

    We needed a new small fence created and fitted, supply and fit a drain pipe and secure a wooden sleeper in position. Chris came round and offered the most practical solution, gave us a quote for half a day’s work. Work was done to a high standard and Dylan was a star, building bespoke fence panel rather than using an ‘off the shelf’ one. He installed some drainpipes and also moved and secured a railway sleeper that had moved since it was fitted. Overall, it was a great service that Balfour provided and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to others looking for garden work, large or small.

    Garden renovation

    Posted 27 September

    Really pleased with the work carried out – the team removed the old decking, levelled the garden, and installed artificial grass and new fencing. Everything was completed to a high standard, with great attention to detail. The garden looks fantastic and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!

Our Process:

We probably work quite differently to other trades people you have met before. Our approach is all about listening, clarity and communication.

Our initial visit will always be very much centred around what YOU want to achieve from the space you would like created. From there we are on hand to assist you with our honest opinion and provide you with the years of experience we have. After all, that’s why you call us!

Whether this is design ideas, material pairings or colour schemes for planting. Our goal is to interpret your ideas and transform them into the dream you had before we started.

Once we leave you, we’ll have a great idea of what it is you are trying to achieve. Within a week we will have a full, detailed quotation sent across for you to read through. Where required we can also create ‘mood boards’ and sketches which certainly help with more detailed and complex projects. If you have any questions or amendments that you would like to discuss, we are always at the end of the phone or on email.

Once you let us know you’d like to us to work with you, we arrange a second meeting to agree the final design, material options and mark out the garden area if necessary, to help you visualise the space.

From that point, we provide you with an approximate start date (you never can rely on the British weather) and we get going with all the behind the scenes organising ready to begin.

Throughout the project Chris, Dan and the team are always on hand to answer any questions, make any adjustments you’ve since thought about and make any last decisions on materials, sizes of areas etc.

When we are all finished making a mess and your project is complete, we like to have a final consultation with our customers. Nothing formal, this is really just a walk round the garden discussing the particular elements, checking you are happy and providing information on the best ways to care for your new dream space.
