Contact Us to discuss the Landscape Design Needs for Your Home

Should you wish to discuss the Landscape Design needs for your garden, please contact us and we can firstly have a brief discussion with you about the situation.

What is involved in a Renn-Ta-Gardener Design & Construction Service?

After the initial phone call, Andrew Renn, Director and Designer will set up an appointment to meet with you and your Garden!

This initial meeting is set up for Andrew to assess the site, its existing conditions and potential and to discuss the design brief with you in more detail.

At this point, a conceptual fee letter will be forwarded to you, detailing costings associated with the preparation of conceptual plans for your project.

Should you wish to proceed, a preliminary conceptual design proposal and plan will then be generated.

Ongoing consultation and amendments of the conceptual design proposal will take place, leading up to the production of a master plan. (At this stage, liaising with Councils is also conducted if planning permits are required).

This master plan is essential for pricing and construction purposes and can include materials and plant specifications.

A quote is then prepared and from here, should you wish to proceed, construction will take place, transforming the Landscape Design into a reality.
