Garden design — Landscape gardener — Professionals

Garden-design leads need a clear user brief and reliable site information. Providers should define the level of design being commissioned, address practical maintenance expectations and distinguish creative proposals from technical details or installation work outside the appointment.

Service scope

Development of an agreed layout and planting or material proposal for an outdoor space, based on its users, dimensions and site conditions. Concept plans, detailed specifications and construction support are separate outputs; a garden design does not automatically include installation.

What is normally included

  • Garden brief and site review
  • Agreed layout and planting proposals
  • Specified plans schedules or design revisions

What is not included

  • Automatic construction or plant supply
  • Uncommissioned structural or drainage engineering

Qualification checks

  • Confirm user needs and priorities
  • Review survey accuracy and constraints
  • Identify retained features
  • Define design outputs and revisions
  • Allocate specialist and installation responsibilities

Quote guidance

Separate concept work, detailed plans, planting schedules and construction-stage support. State the measurement basis and revision allowance so a low-cost layout sketch is not compared with a fully specified garden-design package.

Lead risks

  • The budget may not support the reference design
  • Site information may be too limited for detailed proposals
