Gardens for Good

Having never used a garden designer before I approached Gardens for Good with a deal of caution not knowing quite what to expect as regards their knowledge, service and of course cost. Joe explained the stages, options and prices followed up by a confirmatory email of the above. Having accepted I was kept in constant touch with Joe, Sinead and the team as they worked on the plan tweaking it to accommodate our requests and changes of mind. Matt and his team carried out the hard landscaping efficiently and tidily and was a pleasure to deal with. Our new build standard patch is now transformed and appears so much larger having incorporated our requests along with many of Joe and Matt’s suggestions. The garden is now beginning to fill with bloom and scent. I would wholeheartedly recommend Gardens for Good for your project.

I have worked closely with Joe & the Gardens for Good team for 2 years now, executing his designs and passing on design work to them. It is safe to say that my business would not have grown as much as it did without the help and efficiency of Gardens for Good. The team are experts in their field, with a close attention to detail and a determination to provide the very best designs for their clients.Thank you to Joe & his team!

I engaged Gardens for Good to advise me on some design work on our garden; in particular to open up some of the space and make it more useable for our family needs. Joe and his team provided an outstanding service, including recommending trusted contractors who got the work done in a timely, highly professional and cost-effective way. I would recommend them strongly.

We’re very, very pleased with the garden design and landscaping Joe, Matt, Sinead and the team from Gardens for Good created for our small, walled garden… We were impressed with how friendly and environmentally-sympathetic the whole process was, from talking through our initial needs and wishes (a pleasant space for humans, despite two young and destructive dogs!), through finalising the design, and seeing the work done by Matt’s hard-working, cheerful landscaping team. Gardens for Good were excellent at keeping in touch and making sure we were always aware of what would happen and when (thanks, Sinead and Matt!). The whole process has been a thoroughly good experience: we’re delighted with our new garden and looking forward to spring and summer when leaves and flowers will complete the picture - thank you GFG! (I should add that there are no ‘before’ pictures because it was too depressing to snap what was left of the lawn… the ‘before’ garden looked very WW1, and i wanted to retain the existing paths and patio, having had them put in just five years ago)

What an amazing transformation of our garden. The whole team were so professional and nothing was ever too much trouble. We are so happy, delighted with the results.

Gardens for Good helped us redesign and transform our garden at our property in Oxford. It's an unusual space with very specific requirements and, having been neglected for years, the area had become completely overgrown making it difficult to see any practical solutions. Right form the start Joe and his team were attentive, courteous and took the time to really understand what we needed and wanted form our garden. They created a fantastic solution for the space, the design process was smooth and comprehensive and very attentive to our needs. They also recommended a fantastic contractor who implemented the design with the same level of care and professionalism. We now have a fantastic garden that is stunning to look at, practical to use and a delight to spend time in. We're very grateful to the Gardens for Good team and would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to transform their garden.

Joe’s designed our garden with our wishes and interests but also added his creative suggestions so felt we had picked the right person for the job! We are very happy and enjoying it from inside the house looking out as well as during the hot summer this year. Planting was done in October due to dry conditions so we look forward to all its bloom in the Spring this year! Highly recommend Joe’s company for garden design!
