The Brief & Obstacles

The Problem:

This project was an immediate safety hazard. Doreen had a raised terrace sitting nearly a full meter above the garden, but it completely lacked a retaining wall or safety barrier. To make matters worse, the old slabs were actively rocking back and forth when walked on, and the existing steps were a severely narrow 30cm wide. It was an incredibly dangerous setup that made accessing the garden an everyday risk.

The Precision Build

The Solution:

We performed a complete structural and safety overhaul over three weeks. We fully excavated the failing terrace and engineered a brand-new, load-bearing masonry retaining wall using premium solid brickwork to permanently secure the 1-meter drop. We then laid a rock-solid Indian Sandstone patio on a compacted sub-base to eliminate any movement. Finally, we removed the dangerous 30cm steps and constructed safely proportioned, wide brick steps leading down to the lawn, giving Doreen total peace of mind and safe access to her garden.

"Redesigned the whole garden"

"Chris showed us 3D concepts so we could see how it would look before work started. The new layout makes the garden feel much bigger and it's easier to maintain. We now spend much more time outside."
