Landscaping
Your home doesn’t end at the back door. The outdoor spaces surrounding your property — gardens, patios, driveways, courtyards, terraces — are extensions of where you live. They’re places to relax on summer evenings, to host barbecues with friends, to watch children play, to enjoy morning coffee in fresh air, to potter with plants, or simply to look out upon with satisfaction. A well-designed, beautifully executed outdoor space adds immeasurably to your quality of life and your enjoyment of your home. Yet outdoor areas are often neglected, left as afterthoughts, or allowed to become maintenance headaches rather than pleasures.
At Klassic GS, we bring the same care, craftsmanship, and attention to detail to landscaping projects as we do to our interior work. We believe your outdoor spaces deserve to be thoughtfully designed, properly constructed, and finished to high standards. We’re not just laying slabs or putting up fences — we’re creating environments where you’ll want to spend time, spaces that enhance your daily life and add lasting value to your property.
Good landscaping begins with understanding how you want to use your outdoor space. Do you dream of summer entertaining on a spacious patio? Do you need a practical, attractive driveway? Would you love a lush lawn for children to play on? Do you want low-maintenance surfaces rather than constant gardening? Would raised beds let you grow vegetables without bending? Do you need privacy screening from neighbours? These questions guide our designs, ensuring we create spaces that match your lifestyle and priorities.
We also assess the practical realities of your site. Drainage is crucial — water needs somewhere to go, and poor drainage creates puddles, mud, and damage. Levels and slopes affect what’s possible and how spaces feel to use. Soil conditions influence what will grow and what foundations are needed. Aspect determines where sun falls at different times of day. Existing features may be assets to preserve or problems to solve. We consider all these factors, developing designs that work with your site rather than fighting against it.
Our landscaping services are comprehensive. For hard landscaping, we build patios in natural stone, porcelain, concrete, or block paving. We construct paths and steps, retaining walls and raised beds, fencing and gates, pergolas and garden structures. We lay driveways in block paving, resin-bound gravel, tarmac, or decorative aggregates. We install outdoor lighting that extends usability into evenings and adds atmosphere and security. For soft landscaping, we prepare soil, lay turf, plant trees, shrubs, and herbaceous borders, and create beds ready for you to personalise with your own planting.
Construction quality matters as much outside as inside. A patio laid on inadequate foundations will sink and shift. Fencing without proper posts will lean and fail. Drainage installed incorrectly will back up and flood. We build things properly, with appropriate groundwork, suitable materials, and techniques that ensure longevity. Our landscaping work is designed to look good on completion and continue looking good for many years, with minimal maintenance.
We’re often asked to coordinate landscaping with other building projects. If you’re having an extension built, the garden often needs reworking too — making good where access was needed, integrating new and old outdoor spaces, perhaps creating a patio outside new bi-fold doors. If you’re renovating a whole property, the outdoors deserve attention alongside the interiors. We can plan and deliver landscaping as part of a larger project, ensuring cohesive results and efficient execution.
The scope of landscaping projects varies enormously, and we’re comfortable at any scale. Sometimes it’s a simple patio and lawn renovation to freshen up a tired garden. Other times it’s a complete redesign transforming an overgrown mess into structured outdoor rooms with distinct areas for different activities. Sometimes it’s purely functional — a new driveway that looks smart and accommodates modern cars. Whatever you need, we approach it with the same professionalism and care.
We consider ongoing maintenance when designing. Some clients want outdoor spaces they can enjoy without constant gardening; we design accordingly with appropriate surfaces and low-maintenance planting. Others love gardening and want beds full of interesting plants to tend; we prepare the infrastructure and leave planting to them or install their chosen scheme. We’d rather create something you’ll actually maintain and enjoy than deliver an elaborate scheme that becomes overwhelming and neglected.
Your outdoor space has enormous potential. Whether you have a compact city courtyard, a suburban garden, or sprawling grounds, good landscaping transforms it from mere outdoor area into a genuine extension of your home — spaces you’ll use, enjoy, and appreciate every day.
At Klassic GS, we’re ready to help you unlock that potential.
