Adding decorative stone to beds
Slide show below
This was a small job of enlarging the bed around the seating area
taking out the lavender from in between the box hedge and placing the lavender in front,
to make a small lavender hedge,
The box hedge will sit lower down and closer to the seating area to give a nice enclosed feel
while the lavender will sit closer to the lawn which will make for a nice gentle scent as the breeze blows through the lavender
the bed was then finished off by laying weed protection and covered with plum slate.
Adding stone chipping
After extending the bed of plum slate my customer wanted
a gravel area around the bed of plum slate.
So I removed all the turf and raked out the area to make a nice level grade
as it is on a slight slop,
no hard core was need as the ground was very firm , added weed membrane
then added a nice thick layer of chippings.

A continuation of the Gravelled area to make a walk way at the top of the lawn to the drive
Adding 20mm Golden flint stone
A small job for a customer that wanted the beds around the trees changed,
so I took out old bulbs and Spanish blues bells,
levelled the ground and edged the lawn before putting weed membrane down
then laid the stone and finally put in 3 paving slabs
down the centre between the trees.
Customer was very happy.
