Project overview

The story, quickly

This Newquay project was a complete front garden transformation completed over just 2–3 days. The homeowner had struggled to keep on top of the space for over a year and wanted a solution that looked great without demanding constant upkeep.

We cleared the area back, removed tired planting and built-up weeds, and then prepared the ground properly so the new finish would last.

The end result is a clean, low-maintenance gravel garden that looks tidy from the street, feels easier to manage day-to-day, and gives the homeowner pride (instead of stress) every time they come home.
