Design & Build - Ferndown
Arguably one of our best and most intricate, detailed design and builds to date. The owner of this property has a rescue house cat and a passion for Japanese themed gardens with an impressive collection of Acers. Together, with her, we designed the ultimate Japanese catio - an expansive outdoor, house cat safe environment for both our human and feline clients to relax, play and enjoy in any weather.
The garden was roughly split into 2 with the top half being the 'enclosed' cat safe area and the bottom half being an open continuation of the theme.
We designed the composite decking platforms around the existing mature Acer trees, creating a multi-level path around the garden with the deck platforms overlapping and appearing to be floating above one another.
We built a solid polycarbonate veranda full width across the back of the house and a fully electric and insulated garden room with large bifold doors, picture windows and roof lantern to provide shelter from the weather.
The remaining perimeter of the garden was then defined with composite fencing and Frake hardwood cladding on the garage, garden building and house walls.
Finally we incorporated more planting in the ground and in pots and 'enclosed' the top half of the garden with Japanese themed screening across the top and as a barrier to the bottom half of the garden with bespoke sliding doors.
Lighting was incorporated around the garden with wall lights, under deck LED's and spike lights.
The main challenge in this garden was to create an enclosed area without feeling enclosed, and ensuring that the top half of the garden and into the back of the house remained bright and airy. We completely achieved this and the results are quite stunning.

Phase 2 to come!
​
​
Design & Build - Christchurch
This project involved re-designing both front and back of the house for a couple who wanted a design with curves incorporating paving, turf and planting areas; an increased parking area to the front without dominating the aesthetics.
For the back garden, we created a design with intersecting circles using sandstone paving and setts, turf and planting areas to create a very practical and visually pleasing space.
The curved design continued to the front drive/garden with a sweeping shallow S curve to divide the 2, giving the required larger parking area whilst maintaining proportions with the green areas - the turf and beds.
The project was completed on time and on budget.

Design & Build - Canford Cliffs
The clients here had plans drawn up by a local designer which completely transformed the garden, maintaining and replicating some existing elements and creating 'zones' using various tiering and materials.
We began by stripping back, excavating where needed and putting in structural elements such as the gabion walling and sleeper tiering. We wrapped the boundaries in non-imposing stake and wire fencing which will disappear within the greenery.
A new patio and pathway to the top of the garden was laid using porcelain paving with the path changing to a self binding gravel path into the top wooded area to a new shed.
We built raised sleeper vegetable beds with self binding gravel surround and various ground-level planting beds with integrated lighting.

"BH performed a big garden job for us - installation of a large garden building, installation of a 15ft swimspa jacuzzi and a total rework and redesign of the whole garden itself - from tiled patio to pergola walkway. My wife and I were both massively impressed with both Chris and Matt but also the whole team. I knew they were good from the first day when all tools and materials were cleaned up and stored in an orderly fashion with weather protection. And so it proved to be on the job. Not only this, but Matt and Chris came up with some great and novel solutions throughout the build, always looking for the most sensible and cost effective ways to still achieve the aesthetic desired, but at the right price. Throughout the job and even after the job, the BH team also found and fixed all snagging identified and implemented those little touches that made all the difference and made the garden feel absolutely perfect for us. Which you knew is what they wanted to make sure we loved the end result. Massively pleased with the end result - great work guys! Highly recommend."

This was a tired, inherited family garden that needed updating. The owners wanted a contemporary design to include a swimspa and garden room whilst maintaining a large lawn area.
We cleared and excavated the whole garden which was a mixture of block paving and old lawn, just keeping the mature shrubs.
We proposed a light coloured porcelain paving outside the back of the house disected by wood effect porcelain plank paving which ran around the swimspa and led to the end of the garden with a large patio area by the garden room.
​
We built a block retaining wall and reinforced concrete base on which to sit a swimspa in-ground. Composite decking surrounded this with an access hatch for maintenance. We also installed an outdoor shower.
​
We designed and built a bespoke garden building which is half garden room, half gym. Fully insulated, plastered and painted, full electrics and clad with Frake rainscreen cladding, we built a moveable internal wall to be able to change the room sizes and an overhanging roof to create a very useful storage area to the rear.
​
The garden was finished off with contemporary pergola arches on which to trail climbers and a new lawn.
The project was completed on time and on budget.

Design & Build - Bournemouth
This garden was a challenge due to its extreme triangular shape. We produced a contemporary 'tropical' design which lost and took the eye from the sharp top angle of the garden.
The owners wanted low maintenance so we used porcelain paving and artificial grass. We built block and rendered raised beds which came off the angled back wall to create zones and formalise the garden giving the impression of more space, and painted the brick wall dark grey to 'disappear' it back.
The aluminium pergodas give the versatility to use the garden in all weathers and we built a bespoke outdoor kitchen bbq for alfresco dining.
The garden was finished with UK hardy tropical style planting to complement the existing mature palms.
​
The project was completed on time and on budget.
"When we moved into our house a year ago we thought there was nothing we could do to disguise the fact our garden was a very odd triangular shape. How wrong we were. After a lot of research we contacted Matt and Chris, and from the first meeting we knew they were going to be amazing. They have completely transformed the space and incredibly made it look twice the size. We are so happy with all the work and workmanship, and all the team who knew exactly what they were doing. Throughout the process, they were available to talk to at any time and even encouraged us to make adjustments if they thought the space would suit us better a different way. Matt's design is stunning and we cannot fault their professionalism, attention to detail and planting ideas. The work was carried out exactly on budget and to the timescale agreed at the start. I am so pleased with the end result that i just stand for ages at the patio doors looking out to my beautiful garden. I can't wait for better weather as i think i will be out there all the time! Thanks so much to Matt and Chris and all the team who produced such a fantastic result.."
