It’s been a week since I finished my garden, and honestly, it’s been incredible receiving so many kind comments and messages about the final result. The support has been overwhelming, and it made me want to share the story behind the project and explain why I went to such lengths to create a luxury garden of my own.
Just over a year ago, I bought my first home with a simple vision: to build a luxury patio that would showcase the quality and attention to detail we bring to every project. What I didn’t realise at the time was just how far I would take it.
As you swipe through the photos, you’ll see the journey from start to finish. The original plan was to create a stunning porcelain patio with a raised lawn area above it, forming a beautiful outdoor living space. However, as the weekends went by and I continued working my full-time job during the week, the project grew bigger and bigger. In total, I spent over 60 days working on the garden in my spare time.
Eventually, I created what you can see on slide 4. At that point, I was proud, exhausted, and relieved. After investing so much time, effort, and money into trying to make everything perfect, I genuinely thought the garden was finished.
But I wasn’t done. The top section of the garden still needed attention, and I knew I wanted to push the business further online by creating a project that truly demonstrated what we’re capable of. So I committed an entire week to transforming the remaining space.
Fortunately, my good friend Will took some time off work and joined me on the project. Together, we spent around 15 hours a day on the tools, building the decking, fencing, pergolas, and the water feature. The water feature was something I’d always wanted in my own garden, and after countless hours of planning, designing, and building, we finally brought it to life. Looking back, the investment has absolutely been worth it. Not only have I created a garden that I’ll enjoy for years to come, but it’s also become the perfect showcase of the craftsmanship, dedication, and standards we bring to every job, regardless of our age.
Thank you again for all the support and encouragement along the way!
