Raised oak sleeper beds with three tiered paving levels

This client came to us with his own ideas of what he'd like doing with his outside space. After talking over the various options these pictures show the end result. Because the garden sloped downhill we created three separate landing or tiers by stripping off the existing turf and making three separate levels retained by a combination of brickwork and oak sleeper beds. We then laid paved paths from the top tier down to the back gate with a feature circle of paving in the centre. The garden was finished off with some highland cobbles and Cotswold stone chippings.

This is what the customer had to say - "Sometimes our expectations of builders and landscapers are pitched low as we wait vainly for the quote, or for them to turn up. Not with Rich. He came to give us a price as promised, suggested some useful cost-savings, and returned to do the work pretty much to the day he anticipated. His and his colleague's work was exceptional, neat and they kept us informed of what they were doing so that we could facilitate access to the garden. Totally reliable and trustworthy and would willingly recommend. Thanks."
