Epoch Landscapes
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Essex.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 March 2021
“18 months ago I wanted to change part of my garden which had become overgrown. I decided to contact a young company for ideas , and Stathis suggested that he create a Woodland garden. We discussed a variety of bulbs , ferns , scrubs, and plants that would be appropriate together with a layout. I am extremely pleased with the outcome and I consider it excellent value.”
Earth Designs Garden and Build London and Essex
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Essex.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 August 2016
“Matt and Kat make a great duo; Kat's designs are innovative yet practical, she took into consideration the fact that we both work, making the garden low maintenance (although it doesn't look it), we have teenagers so they have somewhere to hang out, plus a little one on the way so she incorporated plenty of space for us add a tipi (another of Kat's brilliant and unique ideas). Matt's workforce were reliable and efficient, with the ability to foresee issues and address them rather than cause delays. They were polite, cleaning up after themselves each day and generally doing a smashing job. We are over the moon with our new garden, all our visitors have commented on the amazing job and we can't wait to see what it looks like during the different seasons. Both myself and my partner would wholeheartedly recommend Earth Designs.”
Helene Garden Design
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Essex.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 April 2018
“Knowledgeable, engaging, really tries to understand her clients. Helene has done a great job designing and implementing a large, traditional border and shrubbery, advising on garden planning, planting and how a garden might grow in the long term. This is an ongoing relationship so project length and cost are indicative. Top marks. Highly recommended.”
Consilium Hortus
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Essex.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 July 2019
“Sam is very helpful and listens to what you actually want and makes sensible suggestions. He can work within your preferred budget. We have used him on a number of occasions and will continue to do so. I would recommend him fully.”
Paul Dracott Garden Design
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Essex.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 March 2016
“Paul possesses a depth of knowledge, a passion and an eye for detail that is second to none. He took our plot (ugly patio, laid to lawn, patchy and moss ridden) and transformed it into a thing of beauty which takes my breath away daily. He listened carefully to our aspirations and made some detailed notes which he then turned into a design upon which a detailed landscape and planting plan was developed for the landscaping team. Paul was onsite regularly throughout the 3 week project and carried out all of the planting himself. He even popped back to meet with us after completion to hand over and give us all the information and tips we need to maintain our new 'living room'. We are already using it more. The different layers and textures integrate to give a feeling of space and tranquility we never had before. The lighting casts shadows on the house and highlights our feature trees and shrubs which we look forward to watching grow. I've always lived my life at 100mph and Paul has given me something I've never had before; a space to relax and a hobby that I can grow into that brings a new element to my life. I whole-heartedly recommend Paul to anyone considering a garden project.”

“I have found Dave and Tom to be true perfectionists. Dave's eye for detail and the care he takes is excellent. The services are bespoke for each customer, from full garden design to patio's, and driveways, Dave has an extensive knowledge on plants and when to prune etc. He has just completed a driveway and patio for me in black limestone and it looks fantastic. I highly recommend his services.”
Wild Butterfly Gardening
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Essex.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 September 2023
“Sarah and the team were outstanding from the first design consultation through to the final shrub was planted. So quick too. We’ve had a great first summer with our new garden.”
Jeremy Allen Garden Design
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Essex.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 November 2018
“We wanted to convert a large and unused space in our garden into an area which would predominantly feature planting. It was also important that it blended into the open country-side beyond. Jeremy devised a huge, naturalistic planting scheme featuring seven large planting beds filled with flowers and grasses with narrow paths in-between. The plants are arranged in large swathes which provides great impact and also makes maintenance much easier. This garden now looks absolutely beautiful flowering from May through to October. Jeremy did a great job and we would certainly recommend him to others.”
Pehrsson Scott Ltd.
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Essex.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 September 2019
“We appointed Pehrsson Scott to carry out the design and the construction of our town garden in Hertfordshire. We found Henry and the team to be very responsive and engaging at all times. They listened to our brief and involved us in the design process ensuring we understood every detail and were happy with the design before signing off each stage. They gave us a clear understanding of the costs from the outset and were always approachable and pleasant to deal with once the work began. We were very pleased with the outcome and our garden is now a space which the whole family can enjoy. We look forwards to working with them again in the future.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 June 2019
“We are extremely pleased with our front garden. Jon provided us with a professional, friendly service, and has given us a modern, low maintenance garden which is exactly what we asked for. We would most definitely recommend Jon Gower Garden Design.”

The right landscape designer can create a garden that anchors your house to the site, connect it with the environment and create a welcoming exterior to the home. From soil, grasses and plants to structural elements such as retaining walls, walkways and even water features to maintaining these lush grounds, Essex landscape companies are well-versed in the components that make up a functional and visually pleasing outdoor space. Landscape architects and contractors in Essex vary in their range of services, so think carefully about what you want from your gardening service you want from your professional and how extensive a project it will be before hiring them.

What does a landscape architect or landscape designer in Essex do?


Landscape architects in Essex, who typically belong to the Indian association of Landscape Architects (ISOLA), are trained to develop comprehensive structural plans that include plants, hardscaping, water use, drainage and more. They can also design any structure that will be added to the landscape, such as gazebos, retaining walls and other garden features. Typically, the expertise of an Essex landscape architect can apply to understanding your space and natural environment. They work closely with architects and other contractors to develop your landscape or garden in accordance with the other plans.

Landscape designers or garden designers in Essex specialise in aesthetics and horticulture. Keeping in mind both style and functionality, a landscape designer will analyze your architecture and garden to produce a plan that may or may not include location and materials for walkways, patios, water features, garden aspects and more. In addition, he will carefully assess your geographic region to choose plants, trees, and flowers that will flourish naturally, as well as address concerns such as drainage, screening and soil conditions.

Certain landscape architects and designers in Essex only help with the planning portion, while some may deliver the plans and then oversee a hired landscape contractor. Others follow a design-build approach — take care of both the design and all aspects of the landscape architecture and construction.
