From groundwork to finish
One considered landscaping approach.What We Can Build
Garden landscaping in Solihull
Landscaping does not have to mean starting again with the whole garden.
Sometimes the right job is a better patio, a usable lawn or sorting out the level and drainage that has never quite worked. At other times, several parts of the garden need tackling together.
Patios & paving
New terraces, paths and seating areas using materials suited to the look of the house and the way you use the garden. Proper preparation, levels and drainage matter just as much as the paving you see on top.
Lawns & turfing
New lawns start underneath the turf. We can prepare and level the ground, deal with unsuitable areas and create cleaner edges so the finished lawn sits properly within the rest of the garden.
Complete garden landscaping
If several parts of the garden need changing together, we can bring groundworks, surfaces, lawn, boundaries and finishing elements into one coordinated build.
Artificial grass
For gardens where a low-maintenance surface makes more sense, we can prepare the base and install artificial grass as part of the wider landscaping. See artificial grass.
Decking
Decking can make awkward levels far more useful, create a seating area beside the house or garden room, or provide a softer alternative to paving. See composite decking.
Fencing & screening
New boundaries, privacy screens, slatted timber and practical fencing can completely change how enclosed and finished a garden feels.
Drainage & groundworks
Water sitting where it should not, poor falls, soft ground and old bases can undermine everything built above them.
Steps, walls & changing levels
Sloping gardens often become much easier to use once the levels are properly considered. Steps, retaining elements and defined terraces can turn difficult ground into usable space.
Garden clearance & preparation
Old paving, tired lawns, unwanted structures and overgrown areas can be stripped back so the garden is ready for the next stage.
Planting & borders
Borders, planting areas and structural greenery can be incorporated so the finished space feels like a garden rather than a collection of new surfaces.

A Practical Starting Point
What kind of landscaping project do you have in mind?
You do not need to arrive with a finished plan.
Some customers know they need a new patio. Others know the whole garden is not working but are not sure where to begin.
The useful starting point is simply understanding what is wrong with the space now and what you want to be able to do there when the work is finished.
Perhaps it is dated, uneven, too small or disconnected from the rest of the garden.
Poor levels, waterlogging, shade or worn areas may mean the ground needs more attention than simply laying fresh turf.
New fencing, screening or planting can make the space feel much more contained.
Steps, terracing and properly planned transitions can make awkward ground much more practical.
When paving, lawn, drainage, boundaries and planting all need attention, it is usually better to consider the work as one project.
From Enquiry To Finished Garden
How a landscaping project works
We begin by understanding the space, access, levels and scope of work so the practical side of the project is considered from the start.
Tell us what you need
Send an enquiry with a short description of the garden and the work you are considering. Photographs are useful if you have them.
We look at the garden
For suitable projects, the next stage is assessing the site including access, existing surfaces, levels and obvious drainage issues.
Agree the scope
We define what is being removed, what is staying and what the finished landscaping needs to include.
Prepare the site
Clearance, excavation, groundwork, drainage and sub-bases are tackled before the decorative finishes.
Build the landscaping
Paving, walls, steps, lawn, decking, fencing and other elements are completed in the right sequence.
Finish & hand over
Once the work is complete, the finishing details are dealt with and the garden is left ready for you to start using.
Practical Landscaping. Properly Considered.
Why use Proud Gardens for landscaping in Solihull?
A good-looking finished garden depends on practical decisions made much earlier.
How water moves, where the levels finish, how materials arrive on site and how one part of the garden connects to the next all affect the finished result.
We look below the surface
Ground preparation, drainage and levels are considered as part of the job rather than treated as an afterthought.
Built around the way you use the garden
A family lawn, entertaining terrace and low-maintenance garden all need different decisions.
One overall garden
Paving, decking, fencing, lawn and planting work better when considered together rather than tackled independently.
Design help when the project needs it
If the problem is bigger than choosing a new patio, we can move the project into a more detailed garden-design process first.

Common Questions
Questions about landscaping in Solihull
Do you only take on complete garden transformations?
No. If the garden does not need a complete redesign, the project may focus on one or several practical elements such as paving, lawn, decking, fencing, levels or drainage.
Can you replace an existing patio?
Yes. An existing patio can be removed and the area reconsidered in terms of size, levels, falls and connection to the house and garden.
Can you deal with drainage and a garden that holds water?
Drainage can form part of a landscaping project. The cause matters, so the site needs to be assessed rather than assuming every wet garden needs the same solution.
Do I need a full garden design before you can landscape it?
Not necessarily. A defined patio, lawn or fencing project may not need a full design package. Where several areas and levels need resolving together, designing the garden first may make more sense.
How long will my landscaping work take?
It depends on the scope of work, access, groundwork, materials and the number of elements involved. Once the site has been properly assessed, the programme can be discussed around the actual project.
Can you remove the old garden before the new work starts?
Clearance and preparation can be incorporated where required, including removal of old surfaces and elements that need to come out before construction begins.
