FAQ
Can I customise the design of my landscape or garden design?
Absolutely! We work closely with each client to create bespoke and uniquely tailored outdoor spaces that align with your needs, lifestyle, and personal tastes. Throughout the process we will encourage feedback to get your personal preferences on planting selections, hardscaping materials, and overall layout.
Our goal is to realise your vision for your outdoor space, which is why we deliver a personalised service every time.
How long does a landscaping or garden design project take?
As each project is unique, the timeline for your garden design or landscaping work can vary greatly. Timing for projects can also vary depending on the size and complexity of the job.
For example, a small garden makeover or planting project may be completed within a few days, but more complex services such as hardscaping and construction may take several weeks. During the consultation process, we will provide an estimated timeframe for our intended works which we aim to stick to, while also providing the highest quality of work possible.
How long does it take to install a new fence?
Fence installation is usually a quick process. A standard fence installation can be completed by our professional team within one to two days, but larger or more complex projects, such as removing an old fence ahead of new installation, may take longer.
We will let you know upfront how long we expect your fencing installation to take.
What type of fencing do you offer?
We provide a wide range of fencing solutions, all of which are made using high-quality materials, including traditional wooden fences and sturdy concrete posts. For our wooden fences, we only use top-grade timer to ensure longevity and stability while also aligning with our sustainable goals.
Whether you are seeking a traditional fence or want something more decorative, we can help.
How long does a paving or driveway installation take?
Most paving projects performed by our team, whether patio installation or garden paths, can be completed within a few days. The exact duration for your paving or driveway project will vary based on the complexity.
For example, a small or medium patio installation can be laid within 1 to 3 days, but larger projects like a full driveway renovation may take 1 to 2 weeks. As with all of our services, we will provide an estimated timeframe for your installation during the consultation and quotation process.
What paving materials can I choose for my project?

Are your landscaping practices environmentally-friendly?
Yes – we strive to be eco-friendly in all of our work, as sustainability is a core principle for our company.
Wherever possible, we incorporate sustainable practices, such as permeable paving which lets rainwater soak into the ground, avoiding drainage and environmental issues. We can also include native and drought-resistant plants within your garden design so your landscape will thrive naturally without less water and upkeep.
Creating beautiful gardens that are also eco-friendly is very important to us, and we will work with you to ensure your landscape is sustainable both during and after the project is complete.

Yes! We take pride in our workmanship and stand by the quality of everything we build. With over 20 years of experience, Heath Landscapes & Garden Design delivers a service that is second to none.
If something isn’t right or to your liking, we will do everything we can to make it right. All of the materials we use are premium quality to ensure longevity, and many come with manufacturer warranties for additional peace of mind.
Your satisfaction is our top priority – you can have confidence in our work long after the project has finished.
