Complete Garden Transformations — From Concept to Completion
Most landscaping companies will do part of the job and leave you to piece the rest together. That's not how we work.
At Pulse, we handle everything. Our design and build service means one point of contact, one clear timeline, and a finished garden that works as a whole — not a collection of disconnected elements that were each done by a different contractor.
We start by understanding how you want to use your outdoor space. A family with young children needs something very different from a couple looking for a low-maintenance garden retreat. A new build with nothing but turf needs a completely different approach to a Victorian terrace with an established but underused back garden.
Whatever the brief, we design around your life — not around what's easiest for us to build. From the hard landscaping foundations to the final planting touches, every element is considered, costed, and delivered with precision.
Our team includes landscape designers, groundwork specialists, paving installers, decking fitters, and planting experts. When you book with Pulse, you're not managing a chain of subcontractors. You're getting a complete, coordinated crew who've worked together for years.
What's Included in a Garden Design Project
Garden design is more than choosing nice plants. A truly well-designed garden balances structure and softness, function and beauty. Here's what a typical Pulse garden design and installation covers:
Hard Landscaping
- Patios and entertaining areas in natural stone, porcelain, or concrete
- Garden paths and step construction
- Raised beds and planters in timber, stone, or sleepers
- Retaining walls and boundary walls
- Driveway integration and dropped kerbs where required
- Edging, brickwork, and finishing details
Soft Landscaping
- New lawn installation with premium turf
- Planting borders with shrubs, perennials, and grasses
- Tree planting and feature specimens
- Soil preparation, topsoil supply, and mulching
- Seasonal colour schemes and low-maintenance planting plans
Garden Features
- Composite decking and timber pergolas
- Garden fencing in timber, composite, or metal
- Artificial grass installation for zero-maintenance lawns
- Water features and garden lighting integration
- Drainage solutions and land management
Every project is different, and not every garden will need every element. We'll advise honestly on what will make the biggest difference to your space for your budget.
Our Garden Design Process
We've refined our process over 15 years to take the stress out of large garden projects. Here's how every Pulse garden design project runs:
Free Home Survey
We come to you. One of our experienced team visits your property, walks the space with you, listens to your ideas, and assesses the practicalities — drainage, levels, access, soil condition. There's no charge and no obligation.
Design Concept
Based on your brief and survey notes, we develop a design concept for the garden. This covers layout, materials, key features, and planting approach. We talk you through it, adjust it to your feedback, and make sure you're excited before any work begins.
Detailed Quotation
Once the design is agreed, we provide a full written quotation with a clear breakdown of what's included. No vague estimates. No surprises when the invoice arrives.
Installation
Our team arrives on the agreed start date and works through the project systematically — groundworks first, hard landscaping next, then soft landscaping and features. We keep the site clean, communicate daily on progress, and respect your property throughout.
Final Handover
When the project is complete, we walk the garden with you, explain any aftercare requirements, and make sure you're completely happy before we leave. Your 10-year workmanship warranty starts from this point.
Garden Design for Every Budget & Style
There is no single style of garden we specialise in — because every client is different. What we do specialise in is listening carefully and designing something that genuinely suits your home, your lifestyle, and your budget.
- Contemporary gardens — clean lines, porcelain paving, minimal planting, bold structure
- Cottage-style gardens — informal layouts, lush planting borders, natural materials, character features
- Family gardens — durable surfaces, safe lawns, room to play, room to relax
- Low-maintenance gardens — artificial grass, drought-tolerant planting, easy-clean surfaces, smart design
- Social entertaining spaces — generous patios, built-in seating, pergolas, evening lighting
- Wildlife-friendly gardens — native planting, meadow areas, pond features, habitat zones
Whether your budget is £5,000 or £50,000, the approach is the same: understand what you actually want, design it properly, build it to last, and leave you with a garden you'd show off to anyone.
We'll always tell you honestly if something isn't right for your budget — and suggest alternatives that are.
