Consultation fee – £35 per hour to include travel time and fuel (I am based between Axminster and Honiton). In most instances an initial consultation and garden walk through will take two hours. Before your consultation visit and to make best use of the time, please consider how you want to use your garden and if are any particular wishes that you want to include to be able to fully enjoy your outside space.
I can provide guidance and advice on all of the items below. This not an exhaustive list so if there is anything garden related that you would like advice on do contact me.
