Garden design & landscaping in Ongar

Planning a complete garden rebuild in Ongar? EH Landscapes brings garden design and landscape construction together in-house, from the first layout ideas to paving, planting and the finishing details.

We also build schemes prepared by independent garden designers. Share your site photographs, priorities and intended budget so we can discuss the right scope. Our pricing guide explains indicative budgets and what affects the cost.

Complete garden construction

A successful rebuild starts with the practical foundations: access, levels, excavation and drainage. Those decisions need to support the terrace, lawn, planting and outdoor living spaces in the design.

Our landscape construction service brings these elements together around an agreed specification.

Services include:

  • Complete garden renovations
  • Patios, paving, and pathways
  • Lawn installation and turfing
  • Raised beds and garden borders
  • Decorative stone and gravel features

View the wrapped steps and connected terrace in our Great Dunmow project for an example of how a change in level can become part of the garden design.

A layout designed around your home

Where you sit, how you move through the garden and what you see from inside the house all influence the layout. We develop the arrangement, materials and planting together so each part has a purpose.

Services include:

  • Custom garden design plans
  • Patio and entertaining area design
  • Front and rear garden layouts
  • Structural landscaping features
  • Contemporary and traditional garden styles

For independent designers, our construction partnership service starts with the drawings, specification and site information.

Planting for structure and seasonal interest

Planting needs to work with the light, soil and space available. Trees and hedges provide structure and privacy; shrubs, perennials and grasses add texture and seasonal change.

We discuss how much maintenance you want to undertake and use that to inform the planting scheme.

Services include:

  • Trees and shrub planting
  • Flower beds and borders
  • Seasonal planting schemes
  • Wildlife-friendly planting
  • Low-maintenance garden solutions
