Advantageous garden renovation

Most popular garden renovation
Most people opt for a slightly more thorough renovation. First, have your garden completely emptied, new sand poured and then resurfaced. Think paving with concrete tiles, planting, lighting and a garden shed. The average cost for this is around £6,000.
Luxury garden renovation
Do you really want to go big with your garden renovation? Start by having a garden design done in preparation for the garden renovation. Then have your garden emptied, filled with sand and, for example, a section dug out for a pond with fish. The landscaping will be done with more luxurious materials such as natural stone and hardwood and you will enjoy a shed and a pergola. For this luxury garden renovation, you pay an average of £15,000.
Price structure garden renovation
What choices determine the cost of a garden renovation?
Make your garden renovation as crazy as you want. Which choices you can make and what that does to the price are shown below.
Choice 1: Garden design
If you are planning to renovate your garden, you probably have an idea in your head of what you want. Put your ideas on paper so that you know exactly what needs to be done during the garden renovation. You can make a garden design yourself, or have it made by a landscaper with a lot of knowledge, experience and creativity to design the perfect garden with you.
| Product | Gem. price per design, incl. labour costs and VAT |
|---|---|
| Garden design | £ 200 – £ 900 |
| Planting plan | +50% of the design costs |
Choice 2: Empty, excavate or raise the garden
Depending on your new plans, you may want to have your current garden emptied first for a clean start. If your garden has subsided over the years and you are having your garden cleared anyway, then having your garden raised is a quick fix. On average, it costs an extra £10 per m² to raise your garden while it costs £30 per m² if you are just going to raise it. Of course, digging your garden is also an option. You do this, for example, if you want to create height differences in your garden or build a pond.
| Service | Average price per m², incl. £ 15 |
|---|---|
| Garden excavation | £ 10 – £ 25 |
| Garden raising | £ 15 – £ 30 |
Choice 3: Elements
You have an idea about which elements of which materials you want in your ideal garden. These elements and the type of material have a big impact on the garden renovation cost. For example, do you opt for grass or do you opt for new natural stone tiles? Or do you choose the inexpensive impregnated wood or the more expensive hardwood with a lifespan of more than 25 years? These are considerations that you take into account in your garden renovation plan. Below are the average prices of the various elements.
