Laurence Maunder Garden Design & Consultancy

We have known Laurence for many years, and he has provided garden inspirations in the past. He's very friendly and easy going, so it's easy to discuss ideas and projects with him. This year he drew up a design for relaying a large patio area, creating a new path down the side of the house, and defining the border between the garden and the drive. We were very pleased with proposal, and have proceeded with the work which is currently in progress. We can strongly recommend Laurence for any garden design projects that you might be planning.

We have used Laurence on two projects now. He is very professional and has great ideas. On both occasions he has come up with a great concept design. The plans are very detailed and easy to work from. We would highly recommend Laurence for garden design.

Laurence was a pleasure to deal with. Not only was he punctual and professional, his design was better than we could have expected and the presentation and explanation of his vision was clear and thorough. We would not hesitate to recommend Laurence. Thank you :)

Laurence recently provided a fantastic design for our countryside garden and were delighted with the quality of his ideas/drawings and his professional manner throughout. He also recommended a local landscaper who did a great job of turning Laurence's plans into reality. We would highly recommend Laurence to anyone looking for a quality garden designer.

Laurence helped us transform an untouched and unloved plot into a beautiful and restful garden. His attention to detail and inclusion of our (limited) ideas all contributed to a beautiful outcome - as did his recommendations as the contractors to be used. We also worked together on the planting plan and although its early days (the planting only happened a week ago!) we are very much looking forward to enjoying our beautiful garden in Spring 2021.

Laurence provided a fantastic landscape design for us which included hard and soft landscaping and planting plans. We couldn't fault the quality of his designs and his professional manner throughout. He also recommended a first rate landscaper who did a great job of turning Laurence's plans into reality. I highly recommend Laurence to anyone looking for a quality job.

We used Laurence's expertise in the design of the area surrounding the house which comprised of three sides; a front parking area and garden, a side garden, and a back patio and garden. Laurence met with us to discuss what we were looking for. Our areas were mainly grass with a square concrete patio at the back. We wanted something more in keeping with the Georgian house and style. Laurence was meticulous in his preparation for the design spending a lot of time taking very detailed measurements. Once complete Laurence created a number of designs which we went though until we got a plan we really liked. We were provided with large colour detailed plans and Laurence then put in touch with a great landscaping company for the work. They did a terrific job but constantly spoke about the great and detailed plans they were able to work from which they said meant that the work was easier and therefore cheaper than it would have been. Between the two we ended up with our dream place with a bigger parking area, much better and larger patio and much improved style. We have had many complimentary remarks from neighbours (who believe we have added to the value of their houses) and others who have said that the work is of a standard you would see in Belgravia! We are very pleased and would recommend Laurence to anyone looking to improve their property and garden in both style, function and value.

Laurence was great. Not a big project, but that didn't matter to him. He was professional, creative, understood the brief and was full of good ideas. I recommend him.

Laurence did a great plan for our front garden. He took account of what we wanted to achieve and came up with ideas we would never have thought of on our own. He was great to work with and we would certainly recommend him.

Such talent! Right on our doorstep. We couldn’t believe our luck when we found Laurence. Laurence gave us a plan for our neglected garden of 3 acres which had such unrealised potential. In the last 12 months we have had it all done and it’s fantastic. He didn’t even baulk when halfway through we said we had decided to have a pool incorporated into the design. He is professional with great plant knowledge, practical hard landscaping knowledge and a great eye for design. Laurence always did what he said he would do when expected and to our budget. He also helped on the ground during the implementation of his plan, consulting with the contractors and setting out the finer detail of the lawns. Laurence’s help was invaluable and the results are stunning.

Have used Laurences services on a number of occasions. He's great. Easy to get on with and produces fantastic designs. Will no doubt work with him again.

Laurence's professional designs made our waste land into an amazing country garden. He kept us informed all the way through and kept to time frames. It was a pleasure to work with him and his ideas were incredible and everyone who visits admires the design. It includes a lawned area, a pond, flower beds, natural bank planting, walling and driveway. We would not hesitate to recommend Laurence to others.
