Garden landscaping and installation — Landscape gardener

Provide the agreed plan or describe the features to be installed, including what should be removed or retained. Explain access widths, levels, drainage concerns and material preferences so the landscaper can establish a realistic work sequence rather than price a complete garden from its area alone.

Service scope

Physical creation or alteration of a garden to a defined layout, combining specified ground preparation, hard landscaping and planting. The work schedule must identify design responsibility and specialist interfaces; an installation contract does not automatically include every garden feature or ongoing care.

What is normally included

  • Agreed site preparation
  • Installation of specified garden elements
  • Planting and handover within the approved schedule

What is not included

  • Undefined structural or electrical work
  • Automatic maintenance after completion

Typical tasks

  • Review the installation plan
  • Confirm quantities and retained features
  • Prepare the defined work areas
  • Install specified hard and soft landscape elements
  • Handover the garden and care responsibilities

What to include in your brief

  • Design or feature schedule
  • Site dimensions and photographs
  • Access and level information
  • Removal and retained-item list
  • Materials planting and completion requirements

Choosing the right professional

Compare the full work schedule, ground preparation and specialist responsibilities. Ask how quantities, hidden ground conditions and aftercare are handled, and avoid treating an attractive portfolio as proof that unlisted drainage or electrical work is included.

Important considerations

  • Ground conditions may change preparation requirements
  • Poorly coordinated specialist interfaces can delay completion
