Backhouse Construction & Landscaping were brilliant from the first email. Dan sent an invite for a design chat bang on time, no faffing about, and by the end of the call we’d seen two versions of our garden in 3D.
He explained why certain paths would collect water and adjusted them there and then. He’s cheerful, honest and clearly takes pride in neat work, even digital. It’s so nice dealing with a company that treats design like part of the build, not an afterthought.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping delivered our designs bang on schedule. Dan’s communication was spot-on; even called before sending updates to explain changes.
The layout makes perfect sense now — good drainage, realistic planting, and proper space for the BBQ. It’s nice dealing with someone who treats your garden like it matters, not just another job.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping layered planting heights so windows keep their view. The 3D scenes showed seasons too.
Subtle shift, huge difference to how the space reads.

We planned our garden over video because we live miles away. Backhouse Construction & Landscaping handled it effortlessly.
Dan shared his screen, rotated the model, and explained why proportions matter. He even highlighted which parts could be DIY later to save money. That honesty and flexibility made the service feel collaborative rather than transactional.

Dan’s patience is unreal. I changed my mind five times about paving colours and he never sighed once.
Backhouse Construction & Landscaping delivered fresh renders each time and gave fair advice about maintenance. It’s rare to feel so reassured before spending money. We’ve shown everyone the video walk-through; it looks incredible.

Dan showed us how drainage works on the plan. Makes so much sense now.
You can tell he enjoys the craft.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping gave us a measured plan with a simple spec for contractors, plus a maintenance key. The bin store is tucked but reachable, and the herb strip sits by the warm kitchen wall.
It feels practical without looking utilitarian which is exactly what we asked for.

Dan emailed progress updates exactly when promised. Every message was clear and friendly.
The final design had our dog’s little play zone included — even labelled it “Dexter’s patch.” Couldn’t stop smiling at that. You don’t often see trades showing that level of thought.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping produced designs so detailed I could almost smell the lavender beds. Dan worked around our tricky access route and still managed to include a bin store that looks smart.
He’s polite, punctual and tidy even in paperwork — every file clearly labelled. The service felt genuinely premium without being pretentious.

Dan revised the steps so pram access is easy. The updated visuals showed slope and tread nicely.
Now it’s practical and neat.

We worried about drainage. Dan showed falls on the plan with simple arrows and added a slot drain detail.
Backhouse Construction & Landscaping turned a headache into a neat line on a drawing.

I’m not great with measurements but Dan simplified everything. He drew our dining set to scale and showed how paths link properly.
The deck lines up with the kitchen threshold exactly. I’m chuffed to bits. Feels like a grown-up garden for once.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping guided us through the whole design calmly, even when we kept changing our minds. Dan explained how slopes affect cost and maintenance so we could prioritise properly.
He’s one of those people who makes you feel comfortable asking questions. The drawings were tidy and scaled perfectly. Now, when the builders start, we know exactly what’s happening instead of guessing. That reassurance alone was worth the design fee.
