£6.8 Billion spent on gardens

The Budget has been uppermost on everyone's mind. Last year it was estimated that Brits would spend about £6.8 Billion on their gardens and that's about £420 for every garden owning household in UK during 2010. What I wonder is how much of that money was wasted? Two projects last year are shown below, when Greenspace was called in to help put right two different situations. And the amount the owners could have saved if they'd got good advice and had recommendation for a reliable contractor right from the start.


Think what you might save on your project this summer with some good advice right from the start!

As a designer part of my job is to get maximum effect in your garden within what you can afford. Balancing beauty and cost is what I aim to do for all my clients and what I could do for you too. Great gardens that won't need a rethink later on. Yes they'll need care and attention and yes there may be a few losses from extreme weather, but a good garden design ensures your garden will look good at completion and will mature beautifully. Don't leave it to chance - get some good advice right from the start.
