One of the keys to a successful scheme is combining good soft planting, which will mature over time, with the more formal hard landscaping. Here, a deck coated in Ronseal Decking Rescue Paint provides an appealing counterpoint to grasses, lavender and the mature trees in the background
When it comes to sorting out your landscaping, there tends to be three main approaches. You might well be a garden-lover with a great vision, really looking forward to transforming your plot into something very special. Alternatively, perhaps your planning consent includes a condition for the production of a formal landscaping scheme. For some of you, this might not be a critical part of your dream home and you may simply be content with chancing your luck at the end of the project with whatever cash is left over.
