Really happy with how the work was carried out and the finished garden totally met our expectations and looks great. The team were professional and worked in less than ideal conditions with respect to weather and access.

Whether you have a family house in town or in the country, a courtyard or an estate, any outdoor space is a fantastic asset; an extra room to your home, a versatile space to spend time with family and entertain friends, an escape from the stresses of a busy life or a place to grow your own food, creating a healthy sustainable lifestyle. From a rooftop terrace to a country escape, we can create your perfect garden.
We install planting schemes, trees and hedges, large and small. Whether you have an established garden you would like to enhance or overhaul or a new-build property with a blank canvas; we can help. Or maybe you are looking to add some low maintenance kerb-appeal to the front of your house or screen out a view with planting?
One We can advise you on the plants that will thrive in your location and install them so you can enjoy watching them grow. We understand soil conditions and drainage and can suggest and carry out remedial action where required. Our planting team can implement existing designs, or our designers can create a new planting scheme for you. Whilst we can create elaborate herbaceous borders if you ask us to, we find that most clients have busy lives and are looking for a garden that looks good throughout the year and requires minimal upkeep or expertise. We understand how to provide colour, structure and texture to your garden throughout the year without the requirement for time-consuming upkeep or expert plant knowledge. We can offer an easy monthly care plan which will allow you to enjoy your plants for years to come.
We’re not just green fingered… Our in-house hard landscape team offers a wide range of installations, from patios and decking to traditional brickwork or rag stonewalling and driveways. We have both the experience and expertise to deliver a wide range of products that cater for everything from the classic period landscape to the modern minimalist townhouse or rooftop terrace.
Gardens have become ever more hard-working, multi-functional outdoor spaces that need to accommodate elements of outdoor entertaining, cooking, lounging, playing, food-growing, storage and screening, which all have an element of hard landscaping such as patios, decks, terraces, raised planters, walls, pergolas and screens. The popularity of bi-folding doors means gardens are not only more accessible than ever, but they are also permanently on display. This requires sensitive planning and quality installations of hard surfaces, and accurate planning of levels. Our extensive knowledge of products, both traditional and cutting edge, ensures we can deliver a quality product that is right for the surroundings and expresses your individual style.
All gardens grow and evolve over time and throughout the seasons. Whether you have a newly created landscape or a mature garden, we can provide ongoing maintenance services from weekly lawn mowing and general garden maintenance to seasonal planting and hedge cutting.
We offer impartial advice on how to look after your garden, and our involvement can be a one-off visit to help get the garden under control, seasonal or regular visits, to help your garden look its best and for your plants to thrive.
Whether you need only one of the services we offer or a combination, you have a design that you would like to commission or need inspiration; we are happy to arrange a visit and advise you on an approach that works for you and to give you a quote – just give us a call.
Our in-house Design Studio creates state of the art bespoke designs for installation by our specialist teams: an integrated service for your peace of mind.
We are with you from start to finish. Take a look at our garden & landscaping case studies and see our process in action.
“I am a chef, a restauranteur, I see myself as an obsessed perfectionist in my own world and when I work with anybody I want that to be same. I don’t want to work with people who cut corners. I don’t want to work with people who just tell me what they can do but can’t deliver it. And I think with Green Oak you get a real sense of open conversation and it works for both them and for me.”

I think you have done a fantastic job on the design. It all worked extremely well and surpassed expectations on what the garden can look like.

We had an overwhelmingly positive experience with the design process for our roof terrace – Marlene and her team addressed our brief thoroughly and they were incredibly flexible in allowing multiple rounds of edits until we got to the perfect design. Throughout the process they were extremely professional, friendly and attentive, making us feel like very valued customers. Overall, we can’t thank Marlene and the team enough for all the hard work they did on our design.

My first impressions are “WOW! – you’ve absolutely smashed the brief out of the park!” We love the water feature/rill/pond and the fact that the existing patio space is being fully utilised as useable space. There are many clever design features that are a “nod” to the existing house and its build materials, and overall we are both blown away by this, thank you.

I’m very much enjoying the garden, at every opportunity, along with all the family. We’ve even had a large party which used the garden to the full and everyone who’s seen it has loved it!

I put 10 because I am really impressed with the workmanship your team provided, also the clearing up afterwards you could not fault, in fact the garden paths were cleaner when they left than before they arrived. So thank you, I would certainly recommend your Company to anyone as the men were very polite and helpful.

I have to say the garden has been an absolute haven and place of tranquillity over the last few months. It’s been a joy to watch it all grow this year and it’s looking absolutely stunning! I’ve taken loads of pictures over the months, including ones at night with it all looking pretty and the neighbours keep commenting on it too.

Good question…
Most of our project work is design led. This makes sure you are making the most of the space and getting the best value for money. It also means that you and us are both clear on what we are delivering because there is documentation in the form of plans and visuals we have agreed on. I hope you believe us that saving on a design is false economy: The difference between most ‘DYI’ design jobs and a job that has been designed and executed accordingly is immediately apparent.The quality of your final result is in the detailing, in the way the materials are combined and the use of a consistent visual language throughout the project. And that is without considering the solutions a good design can bring to your space that you wouldn’t have thought of. Landscaping isn’t like a few cushions that you can replace if you don’t like them, it’s something you will live with for many years and that can either give you joy every time you look at it or it can be the cause of regret. We like to deliver joy! … however for very straight forward pieces of work a design may not be required. Talk to us and we will give you an honest answer.
The good thing about our team is that we know that whatever we design can be built and accurately translated onto the site and within the agreed budget. During the design process, our wider team are also involved in consideration for construction methods and on-site logistics. We understand there is nothing worse than a vision that can’t be delivered. For you, it also means that there is one point of contact and that all the responsibility rests with us. There is no finger pointing between 3rd party designers or subcontractors when a nimble and coordinated approach is required, especially when there are changes or if unexpected situations arise during the project’s construction phase.
Definitely! Staff development is a fundamental part of our commitment to provide a first-class service. We have an enthusiastic and talented team each specialising in different elements of the outdoor sector. All our staff our DBS checked for peace of mind and safety.
We endeavour to cause minimal disruption to our customers’ personal lives while we undertake any project work. As long as we have access to the area and an outside tap and electric supply, that’s all we need.… although we never say no to a cup of tea!
Be our guest.….we have a show garden located at Corker Outdoor Living in Paddock Wood, or we can arrange for you to visit either one of our ongoing projects, or one that has been recently completed.
