Your new home needs the perfect setting; it is time to reach for your wellies and pull on your gloves.
If you have renovated instead then chances are you inherited a garden withestablished trees and plants along withthe property which will all need a major overhaul and a fresh look at the garden layout. Here’s some advice from people who have been there, done that and now got a lovely lawn to prove it: Decide what you want from your garden when you are designing your home; it is never too soon to start. A garden room withsliding glass doors and a patio or decking, all withcarefully placed heating indoor and out, will keep your garden in play nearly all year round.
It is never too early for action. Knowing where you want external power points for garden lighting and heating and pipes for taps or water features makes it easier and more economical to install when the house is being built. The same applies to garden paths, hard standings for sheds and summer and greenhouses and locations for decking.
