What we do

  • These reports are a straightforward survey of what is found on-site, and serve as a foundation for detailed recommendations thereafter. These initial surveys may include reference to plant health, plant identification, presence of invasive weeds, or myriad other factors that indicate the current condition of the soft landscaping on your site(s).

  • These reports are a step forward from the initial survey listing recommendations for improvements, tailored to your own aspirations and any specific issues that you are looking to address.

  • Produced for individual sites or entire portfolios, these highly detailed plans provide a breakdown of the objectives, resources, actions and future considerations that are required to maintain external spaces, ensuring they are maintained and developed according to best sustainable practices embedded in the principles of environmental horticulture.

  • Detailed month by month and plant by plant schedules of the maintenance required on the soft landscaping on each of your sites, to improve and develop their full potential, and keep everything looking sharp through the year.

  • For contractors with remote sites that need monitoring, Tom is able to provide regular visits to help ensure your quality standards are being upheld.

  • For sites with Japanese Knotweed, Himalayan Balsam, Giant Hogweed or any of the many terrestrial plant species on the Schedule 9 invasive species list, a full site survey is followed up with a detailed management plan. Tom is an independent Certificated Surveyor of Japanese Knotweed (CSJK).

  • A comprehensive planting design service is available for projects anywhere in the UK, be they at the planning stage or part of existing sites.

  • Tom works closely with ecologists to help you integrate your Biodiversity Net Gain goals into your planting and soft landscaping.
