What We Do

Our Approach

Each of our projects are unique with different variables deciding on the outcome for you. There is no such thing as a blank canvas when it comes to creating outdoor spaces. We listen to you and look at your lifestyle, tastes and requirements. These are combined with the environment outside, site conditions and architecture. This allows us to strike a balance between the natural and built environment in order to create a comfortable, usable outdoor space.

We relish the challenge of reimagining old materials already present in your garden. Where possible we reduce and reuse the materials on each of our projects. We encourage wildflower planting as low maintenance landscape solutions. Where possible we reduce the amount of grass for mowing which in turn reduces emissions from your lawnmower.

WHAT WE OFFER:

Tailored Landscape Solutions

We are proud that a particular design style is not present throughout the outdoor spaces we have created. This is because each design is tailored to suit the particular requirements of each individual site. Each site will have varying environmental conditions that will dictate the type of soft and hard landscaping materials we can incorporate into the design. We use these conditions as the starting point for the new design by carrying out a site survey and completing a desktop study.

With private domestic clients we look at their lifestyle, tastes and requirements to establish a design brief. On larger residential, commercial and public realm schemes we look at the requirements of the wider society and local authority development plan in order to establish the design brief. This is the starting point for the new outdoor spaces we create. Please feel free to book an initial consultation in order to establish your requirements. 

Our Services

01

Landscape Design

We work hand in hand with each client to create their unique outdoor space. The process is completed in stages with the client consulted at the end of each stage. Sometimes the initial site survey and consultation is enough to steer the client in the right direction. There is no obligation to engage About Your Garden throughout the entire project life cycle. We tailor the solutions to suit your requirements and there is no one size fits all solution.

02

Landscaping

We work with landscape contactors and builders throughout Ireland in order to realise your outdoor space. Where there is an need for on site support from ourselves we are happy to help out or recommend one of the contractors we work with. This is a full range service from site preparation through to handing over the completed project to the client.

We tend to only work on complete design and build projects. Where you have a requirement for one off elements we are happy to recommend another contractor. 

Landscaping Carpentry

Hard Landscaping

Hard landscaping involves anything to do with the installation of paving, gravel or the construction of walls. These elements make up the bones of the garden in order to create a comfortable usable outdoor space. 

Soft Landscaping

Soft landscaping involves anything to do with plants or soil. Any landscape scheme will live or die by the selection of soft landscape materials. The correct choice and proper installation of soft landscaping materials from project inception throughout the project lifecycle is critical to the success of your outdoor space. 

Other Services

Synthetic Grass

Synthetic grass is a great option where real grass cannot grow due to very heavy use or for the person who wants to throw away their lawnmower.

Water Features

We believe a water feature should either be a stand out part of the garden or a hidden treat you find by following its sound. Either way we love to design and install them.

Boutique Nursery

With our roots set in landscape contracting and design we can source and deliver larger than normal plant pots. Along with a delivery service within Kildare, Dublin and Meath. We also provide a planting service to set our plant pots and containers apart from the normal.

FAQ's

That depends on how complex your project is. If you already know where you want your patio and have selected the paving it does not make sense to spend money on a design. You may be looking for the right tree for the right place. In this case there are loads of online resources to guide you, or your local nursery will have very knowledgeable staff to help you. If you have a larger garden and need help pulling a number of elements together then you need a landscape designer. In the case of architects and other design professionals in the construction industry we work with you to realise your vision. We ensure that the surrounding environment meets the built environment in the best way possible within the given constraints. 

Each of our projects are unique and tailored to suit each client. It takes time to devise a unique landscape solution to suit your needs. If you have viewed our work and like what you see please feel free to book an initial on-line consultation offered at a nominal price. The design service is offered in steps and there is no obligation to book a complete design package. Sometimes the initial site survey and consultation is enough to give you a steer in the right direction. 

A lot of what we do is preliminary landscape design. This is where the client already has the resources in place to implement the design. They only require a two-dimensional landscape plan showing the layout of the different elements. We can go into as much detail as required in order to help you realise your project. With a background in landscape contracting, we will look at your skill level and resources available to complete the finished product and tailor the design around that.
