Ross built us a brilliant brick step outside the house. He thought of a simple strong design, worked hard to finish it in one day, turned up when he said he would and communicated fantastically throughout the whole process. Recommend 100%.Verified reviewerJob location: BN1- PPeter R

Posted 23 September 2025
Amazing work. Ross replaced a decking area and some stairs. The area feels bigger now, it doesn't feel like a fix but like a new feature in the garden. It's given us new ideas for that area. So much so that we regret not having done it before summer... Ross was really helpful and informative during the process. Can't recommend him enough!Verified reviewerJob location: BN110 Good work

My Name is Ross. I am a multi skilled landscaper with 25 years of experience in the industry. The work I do varies between the seasons and I am fortunate enough to be able to take on both Landscaping projects and Carpentry to a very high standard.
I started out my career journey at the age of 21 helping to build treehouses for a landscaping artist and laboring for various other landscapers eventually building up my confidence over the years to start my own small businesses. Honestly, I absolutely love what I do and feel blessed to be allowed to transform people's spaces for them to help create their dream outdoor sanctuary. I have formed my company combining hard and soft landscaping and woodwork. I also have experience in joinery, prop making and set building and as a company aim to keep things as imaginative as possible!
I have a small team of skilled tradesmen who come from different creative backgrounds. We are courteous, polite and have a friendly but professional approach when working with our clients. We are of course Dog friendly! and happily encourage any interactions with pets when working around our client's home.
We are extremely passionate about nature and are an eco-conscious company ensuring we only use sustainably grown timber, and any waste disposal is dealt with responsibly and recycled when possible.
In 2025 we are very excited to be opening our new workshop! which we will be using to prebuild moveable products like garden planters and garden furniture.
We will also be making bespoke cabinet furniture for inside the home too so don't hesitate to enquire about that!
Id sincerely loves to hear from you regarding your vision so please do get in touch for an informal chat to start the ball rolling 🌱
