A Comprehensive Design and Landscaping Service
Both Alan & Sue work closely with you throughout the design build and they can liaise with planners and authorities if the work requires it.

So from beginning to completion:
The Company of Landscapers can provide a fully comprehensive design and landscaping service for you and would welcome submissions of designs for costing and construction from other designers and design practices.
