Why Spring Is the Best Time for Garden Work
Spring is when most homeowners start thinking seriously about their gardens. The weather improves, the evenings get longer, and suddenly that tired patio or overgrown lawn is impossible to ignore. After a long winter, your outdoor space deserves some attention. If you are thinking about a garden project this spring, here are the most popular transformations we carry out across Staines, Egham, Ashford, and the surrounding areas.
New Patio
Replacing old, cracked slabs with modern porcelain or natural stone is the single biggest improvement you can make to a garden. It creates a clean, level entertaining space that looks fantastic from the moment it is finished. Most patio installations take 3 to 5 days depending on size, and the difference between what was there before and the finished result is always dramatic. We lay patios in porcelain, Indian sandstone, limestone, and slate, so there is something to suit every style and budget.
Artificial Turf
If you are tired of mowing every weekend, or you have a shaded area where real grass simply will not grow properly, artificial turf is a brilliant solution. Modern artificial grass looks and feels remarkably realistic, and it stays green all year round with zero maintenance. No mud, no bare patches, no mowing. We install it with a proper sub-base and weed membrane underneath so it drains properly and lasts for years. It is particularly popular with families and pet owners across Staines and Feltham.
Full Garden Makeover
Our most popular spring project is the full garden makeover. New patio, fresh turf or artificial grass, new fencing, and sometimes raised planters or a pathway linking everything together. We handle the entire job from the initial design conversation through to the final clean-up, and most full makeovers are completed within a week. It is the kind of project where the before and after photos speak for themselves.
Fencing
Winter weather takes its toll on garden fencing. If your panels are leaning, rotting at the base, or have blown over completely, spring is the ideal time to get them replaced before you start using the garden again. We offer close board, panel, composite, and decorative fencing, all fitted with concrete posts and gravel boards for maximum lifespan. Composite fencing has become very popular recently because it does not rot, does not need painting, and looks smart for decades.
