Garden Landscaping in Rhodesia

Full garden landscaping — levels, hard surfaces, planting areas and the layout tying it together.

Garden Landscaping for homes in Rhodesia

Landscaping is the job where all the individual trades meet: the levels, the retaining, the paved areas, the lawn or artificial grass, the borders and the routes between them. We take a garden as a whole rather than as a list of separate jobs, working out how the space should flow from the back door to the far end, where the levels need holding with walls or steps, where the seating and planting areas want to sit, and how the surfaces should change between them. Then we build it in the right order, so the heavy work and the muck away happen before the finished surfaces go down instead of over the top of them.

Working in Rhodesia

Rhodesia is a small settlement immediately west of Worksop, on the Chesterfield Canal and the road out toward Shireoaks. It is a compact place with a core of older brick housing built around the works and canal, plus later infill, and the plots are generally modest and regular. Small does not mean simple: on a compact frontage, the layout matters more rather than less, because there is no spare room to absorb a mistake in the setting out. Getting the driveway width, the position of the threshold and the fall toward the road right is what makes the difference between a drive that works day to day and one that is awkward to use. Being on the canal, ground conditions closer to the water are checked properly before base depths are settled.
