Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the design process take? From initial consultation to final design presentation, expect 3–6 weeks, depending on the time of year. Implementation timelines vary based on project scope and season but if patience isn’t a virtue you possess (I know, thats me all over) then we can usually have a garden built in a matter of weeks out of our busier season.
Do you handle the installation, or just the design? We offer both! We can manage the entire build—planting, paving, lighting, and landscaping—or provide your chosen contractors with detailed plans and ongoing support.
What if I only want to implement part of the design? Absolutely. We design with phased implementation in mind, so you can prioritise areas and spread costs over time.
Can I make changes after the design is finalised? Yes. We include one round of revisions in the package. Additional changes can be accommodated for a small fee but we’d rather work with you to get the design exactly right.
Do you work outside of Kildare? Yes! We serve clients across Ireland, we also design in the UK and have designed and built in France, Switzerland and Portugal too. Travel fees may apply for projects outside Ireland.
