Landscaping For Solihull’s Gardens
Solihull is home ground for Proud Gardens. Being based in the borough means surveys, site visits and follow-ups are straightforward, and it means we know the mix of gardens here — from the tighter plots of Shirley and Olton to the larger, more established gardens of Knowle, Dorridge and the villages towards Hampton-in-Arden.
Whether you want a complete garden transformation or a single improvement such as a new patio or lawn, we start with a survey and, for larger projects, a 3D design so you can see the result before work begins. See the areas we cover, or go straight to our dedicated pages for Knowle, Dorridge and Sutton Coldfield.

How Much Does Landscaping Cost in Solihull?
Every garden is different, so the cost of landscaping depends on the size and condition of the space, the proposed design, the materials selected and the amount of preparation and construction required. For a guide to typical figures, read our landscape garden design cost guide.
Clear quotations based on the work your garden genuinely needs.
A simple patio installation will naturally involve a different level of work from a complete garden transformation with drainage, groundworks, retaining walls, decking, lawns and planting.
Proud Gardens takes time to understand the space and the result you want to achieve before preparing a tailored quotation. This allows us to consider the practical requirements of the site as well as the materials, finishes and design details involved.
Your quotation is based on the agreed design, scope of work, preparation requirements and chosen materials.
The Main Factors That Affect Landscaping Costs
Understanding these areas can help you plan your project and decide where to prioritise your landscaping investment.
Garden Size & Access
The overall dimensions of the garden and the ease of access for people, machinery and materials can significantly affect the amount of labour and preparation required.
- Total area of the garden
- Side, rear or restricted access
- Removal of existing materials
Groundworks & Drainage
Excavation, preparation, waste removal, drainage and changes in levels are essential parts of many landscaping projects and form the foundation of a long-lasting result.
- Ground preparation and excavation
- Drainage requirements
- Changes in levels and retaining work
Patios, Paving & Walls
The size of paved areas, installation method and choice of material all influence the price, particularly where steps, edging or walls are needed.
- Porcelain or natural stone paving
- Paths, steps and seating areas
- Walls, raised beds and edging
Lawns & Artificial Grass
Natural turf and artificial grass require different preparation, drainage and installation methods, with the selected product also affecting the final quotation.
- Natural turf preparation
- Artificial grass quality
- Pet-friendly and drainage options
Decking & Garden Features
Composite decking, pergolas, seating, garden structures and other design features add character and usable space but require additional materials and construction.
- Composite decking and platforms
- Steps and integrated seating
- Decorative and structural features
Planting & Finishing
Planting plans, borders, decorative aggregates, lighting and the finishing touches help bring the complete garden design together.
- Plant selection and planting
- Soil preparation and borders
- Lighting and decorative finishes
Garden Design & 3D CAD
Detailed planning and 3D visualisation can be particularly valuable for larger or more complex gardens where multiple areas and materials need to work together.
- Bespoke layout development
- Material and feature planning
- Realistic 3D garden visuals
Materials & Finish Level
Product quality, format, colour and finish all influence the overall price. We can discuss suitable options that balance appearance, performance and budget.
- Premium or specialist products
- Material formats and quantities
- Desired quality and finish
Two gardens of the same size may require very different levels of work.
One garden may have straightforward access and level ground, while another may require excavation, drainage, retaining structures and the removal of significant existing materials. This is why a site-specific quotation is the fairest and most accurate approach.

Frequently Asked Questions About Landscaping in Solihull
Find answers to common questions about garden design, landscaping quotations, project timescales and the services available from Proud Gardens.
01Where in Solihull do you work?
Across the borough: Solihull town, Shirley, Olton, Monkspath, Dickens Heath, Knowle, Dorridge, Balsall Common and Hampton-in-Arden, where we are based.
See the areas we cover for the full list, including Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield and the wider West Midlands.
02Do you provide free landscaping quotations in Solihull?
Yes. Start with the enquiry form or a call. For larger projects we visit to survey the garden before quoting, so the price reflects the actual site rather than an estimate.
You are under no obligation, and we will tell you honestly whether a project is a good fit.
03Can you design and build the whole garden?
Yes — layout, groundworks, paving, decking, lawns, planting, lighting and garden rooms, managed by one team from start to finish.
See our garden design and build page for how a complete transformation works.
Explore our 3D garden design service04Do you offer 3D garden design?

Find out more on our 3D garden design page.
Read more about landscaping costs05How much does landscaping cost in Solihull?
It depends on the size of the garden, the groundworks involved, the materials and the finish. The cost section above explains the main factors.
Our cost guide gives typical ranges for design and landscaping projects.
06How long does a landscaping project take?
A single patio or lawn is usually a matter of days. A complete transformation is typically several weeks on site, depending on scope.
You receive a programme with the quotation so you know what happens when.
07Can you work on smaller gardens as well as large plots?
Yes. Smaller Shirley- or Olton-type gardens benefit most from careful layout and material choices; larger plots benefit from zoning and, where useful, phasing.
Both start with the same survey and the same attention to levels, drainage and finish.
View our artificial grass service08What should I include in my enquiry?
Your location, a rough idea of garden size, what you want to use the garden for, and photographs if you have them.
Do not worry if you are unsure what you want — that is what the survey and design stages are for.
