Fully Bespoke Garden Design & Construction
Project Background
The client’s original garden featured an ageing paved area with limited usable space, uneven lawn levels, and a lack of structure or defined zones. While naturally bright and spacious, the garden didn’t offer an inviting place for dining, relaxing, or hosting guests.
The homeowner approached The Leicester Landscaping Company seeking a complete transformation—something contemporary and functional, with clean lines, quality materials, and a layout tailored to daily living.
Client Objectives
- Create distinct zones for outdoor dining and relaxation
- Maximise usable space with a more practical layout
- Improve the flow from the property into the garden
- Use modern materials with long-lasting durability
- Introduce improved planting and soft landscaping
- Deliver a low-maintenance but stylish final design
Our Bespoke Design Approach
We began with a full on-site consultation, taking into account how the client wanted to use their garden. From there, our designers developed a fully bespoke layout with 3D visuals that included:
- A spacious porcelain-tiled patio leading from the house
- A raised lawn for structure, separation, and visual interest
- A second elevated seating terrace for evening relaxation
- Contemporary planters and a curated planting scheme
- Warm timber accents to contrast beautifully with the clean paving
Every detail—from slab choice to step design—was selected collaboratively with the client to ensure the finished space matched their personal style and practical needs.



Construction & Build
Our landscaping team completed a full renovation, including:
- Removal of the old patio and garden waste
- Installation of a reinforced sub-base for the new porcelain patio
- Construction of timber-framed raised levels and steps
- Laying high-quality porcelain tiles for both patio areas
- Turfing the lawn for an instant refresh
- Installing feature planters and soft landscaping elements
We maintained clear communication throughout, ensuring the client felt involved and informed at each stage.
After: A Contemporary, Functional Outdoor Living Space
The finished garden is a striking transformation from the original space. Key features include:
✔ A large porcelain-tiled dining patio
Perfect for hosting, weather-resistant, and easy to maintain.
✔ A raised lawn with clean timber edging
Adds structure while keeping the garden looking open and spacious.
✔ A modern upper seating terrace
Complete with premium outdoor furniture, providing a dedicated area to unwind.
✔ Thoughtful planting and contemporary planters
Softens the overall design and introduces year-round visual interest.
✔ A cohesive, balanced design
Every element works together to create an elegant, versatile garden tailored to the homeowner’s lifestyle.



Client Feedback
The homeowner was thrilled with the transformation, praising the craftsmanship, attention to detail, and the seamless experience from initial design to final installation. The new garden has become a true extension of their home—stylish, practical, and built to last.
Customer Testimonials
EXCELLENT Based on 52 reviews Posted on Nick DaviesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a back garden redesign. The end result is exactly what we were after. Many thanks!Posted on JohnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Reuben Aiden and Sean put in hard graft and completely transformed our garden within three weeks, Miles planned out the garden taking into account our specific needs, whilst Terry organised planting taking into account sun and shade requirements. It was a pleasure having them in our property as they are all such lovely guys. It wasn't cheap but it was value for money.Posted on Mary A'Herne-SmithTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our garden make-over done back in January-February. This review hasn't taken so long to do because we're not happy but because of one of the factors that Miles had to consider when planning our garden. So the factors he had to consider: 1. My health - I have fibromyalgia and therefore there are many times when my husband has to do everything. We needed a garden that was very easy to maintain and simple to develop. 2. We have an active Irish Terrier, and like all terriers, he likes to dig! We needed a way to protect the garden from our beloved dog. 3. We had exceptionally heavy clay in the garden. 4. It was a new build bungalow that was oddly shaped, with a patio that wasn't what we wanted it to be, and a hot tub to consider. We weren't sure how best to work around that. Miles came up with a plan that delivered on ensuring the garden is everything we want it to be. It is easy to maintain and we have already started to put in little touches of our own. By placing a lovely looking gate at one side, it can keep the dog out of the main garden when he's on his own and it neatly separates the main garden from my kitchen garden. 40 tonnes of heavy clay was dug out and replaced the first week of the build. This has given the new plants ample time to develop. The design of the garden has included an enlarged patio with paving linking each side of the main garden, preventing muddy sections. The pergola is already a stunning feature, with it only going to get better as the evergreen jasmine develops over time it. At every stage of the work, Miles and his team were completely professional, with especial thanks to Terry for his choice of plants. Over 95% of them have thrived, which I have been told is very high when absolutely everything is new! In June I was invited to open my garden for our village open gardens day. The compliments from everyone who came were lovely, though I had to point out it wasn't my work but the work of the Leicester Landscaping Company. Many thanks to them.Posted on Jordan JamesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Transformed a boggy mess (heavy clay soil) into a lovely relaxing space. The whole process from planning (Miles came up with some great ideas for us and the design images were so close to reality), groundworks (removing 35 tonnes of clay and putting in drainage) to the final fixing were all painless. The guys that did the work were great and it was amazing fo see the transformation happen before our eyes. We would highly recommend 'The Leicester Landscaping Company'
