Pricing

I believe in transparent pricing, so you know what to expect from the start. Every garden is different, and the amount of work involved can vary depending on its size, access, levels, existing features and the level of design detail required.

​

The prices below are starting points based on the approximate area of the garden being designed. Following our initial consultation, I’ll provide a firm quotation based on the size and complexity of your garden and the drawings and design information required for the project. Provided the agreed scope remains the same, that’s the price you’ll pay.

​

Some projects need relatively straightforward detailed drawings, while others may require additional construction details, setting-out information or indicative drainage and lighting layouts. Your quotation will clearly set out what is included.

​

My staged payment structure gives you flexibility and control over timing and budget as the design progresses.

The Design Process

Compact Gardens (up to 75 m²): from £500

Small Gardens (76–150 m²): from £750

Medium Gardens (151–400 m²): from £1000

Large Gardens (401–800 m²): from £1,500

Gardens over 800 m² are priced individually.

Design fees are split into two staged payments: 70% at the start of Stage 1 and the remaining 30% before Stage 2 begins.

Your Design Includes:

Stage 1: Design & Concept | 70% payment

Initial consultation and site survey, site analysis, mood boards, 2D sketch plan with written explanations, 3D renders, and one round of revisions to ensure the design is exactly what you’re looking for

Stage 2: Detailed Design | 30% payment

Detailed scale drawings, material specifications and hard-landscaping layouts, together with any additional design information listed in your quotation. Depending on the project, this may include construction details and indicative drainage or lighting layouts.

Please note: Your design includes one round of revisions during Stage 1. Small changes requested after sign-off will normally be charged at £75 per change. Where a request is likely to require more substantial work, I’ll provide a separate quote before proceeding.

The Planting Process

Planting Design Service:

Planting design prices are based primarily on the area being planted rather than the overall size of the garden. The final quote will also take into account existing conditions, planting density, the number of separate beds and the level of detail required.

Up to 25 m² of planting: from £300

26–50 m²: from £400

51–100 m²: from £600

101–200 m²: from £800

Over 200 m² are priced individually.

Stage 1: Planting Design

For standalone planting design, the service includes an initial consultation and site assessment, including measuring the planting areas and reviewing conditions such as aspect, soil, existing planting and drainage.

​

Where a more detailed measured survey is required because of the size, levels, number of planting areas or overall complexity of the site, this will be quoted separately before work begins.

​

If the planting design forms part of a full garden design, I’ll normally use the site survey already completed for that project, so a separate survey is not usually required.

Stage 2: Plant Supply & Installation — Optional

Once your planting plan is complete, you can choose to move ahead with plant supply and installation. I can source plants through a trusted nursery and provide a separate quote covering plant costs, delivery and installation as required.

​

Payment for the planting design is due before Stage 1 begins. Plant supply and installation are quoted and invoiced separately.
