DIY advice
OK, so you've decided you really want to undertake all that hard work yourself! Remember though, its never too late to change your mind and get us in to help you out!
But, if you're going to go the DIY route then the least we can do is give you a bit of helpful advice along the way. So we have created a series of pages taking you through the process of getting a great new garden, from the design stage to sitting back and enjoying your (hopefully!) beautiful new garden.
We also offer an advisory only service, which is charged per half day. You can use our time in a way which suits you best - perhaps you need some construction advice on a new deck or want to be shown how to lay a patio. If you can get a group of friends together to work in a "Channel 4 City Gardener" style then the use of our advisory service could be perfect!
If you already have a list of materials and/or plants you need for your project then why not take advantage of our bulk buying power by ordering them through us. Just send us the details and the prices you have already been quoted (either from a retailer or another landscaper) and we will see if we can get you a better price. There's no charge for trying!
Right, on with you new garden....

Please note Great Spaces Limited can take no responsibility for any problems you encounter by going down the DIY route! These guides are just that - a guide, not instructions. If in doubt USE AN EXPERT!
