LANDSCAPING IN CANNOCK
New-build gardens around Cannock, Hednesford and Heath Hayes are often handed over with thin turf on compacted ground and a basic fence. Landscaping is how you turn that into a garden that drains and grows properly.
We sort the ground, fix the drainage and lay new turf, fencing, paths and beds. Free site visit, fixed written price.

LANDSCAPING NEW-BUILD GARDENS IN CANNOCK
If your lawn turns into a bog every winter, the ground underneath is usually the reason. We break it up, improve the drainage and lay new turf on proper soil.
Artificial grass is a popular option on smaller new-build gardens where real turf has struggled. It needs a proper free draining base to work.
PRIVACY, DRAINAGE AND TREES IN CANNOCK GARDENS
Gardens on the newer estates in Heath Hayes, Hednesford, Norton Canes and Great Wyrley are often overlooked, with low fences or open boundaries between neighbours. Privacy is usually one of the first things on the list. Taller fencing up to the usual two metre limit, trellis on a lower fence, or a run of evergreen planting can all help, depending on what the deeds and any estate rules allow.
Many estate gardens also slope slightly towards the house or the back fence. Before we lay new turf or artificial grass, we regrade the ground so water runs away from the house, break up the compacted layer underneath and, if needed, add a land drain or soakaway to take the water somewhere useful.
Towards Huntington and Cannock Chase, older properties often have bigger gardens with mature trees and hedges. There, the work is usually about defining spaces with paths, beds and a lawn edge, and keeping the trees healthy by working around the roots rather than through them. We give you a clear breakdown so you can choose which parts to do first.

Most garden problems start with levels and drainage, so we look at those first. Clearing and taking away the waste from the work we do is part of the job.
Many of the estates around Cannock, Hednesford and Heath Hayes have narrow roads and tight parking, so we plan deliveries and the skip around your neighbours' cars before the job starts.
