A garden makeover doesn't necessarily mean starting again from an empty space.
Often, the best result comes from identifying what already works and improving the areas that don't.
You might have a lawn worth retaining but an old patio that needs replacing. Your paving may be in reasonable condition while the fencing, levels and planting areas make the garden difficult to use.
Alternatively, the entire layout may no longer suit your household.
We can help reorganise the space so the different areas of the garden work together.
A makeover could include:
The exact combination depends on your garden and what you want to achieve.
A garden shouldn't only look good in photographs.
It needs to work in everyday life.
Before deciding on materials, it helps to think about what you actually want the garden to do.
A properly positioned patio or decking area can provide somewhere practical for outdoor furniture, dining and entertaining.
For households with children, the priorities may be usable lawn space, secure boundaries and clear connections between different areas.
Artificial grass, paving and carefully planned hard landscaping can reduce the amount of mowing and routine garden maintenance required.
A quieter seating area away from the house can make better use of a previously neglected section of garden.
Paths, steps and changes to levels can improve movement around gardens that currently feel awkward or disconnected.
We'll plan the project around those practical requirements rather than filling the space with features you don't need.
We provide garden landscaping throughout Yeadon and the LS19 postcode area, including properties across the town and towards Rawdon and Guiseley.
Gardens across Yeadon vary significantly.
Some established properties have mature gardens that need modernising without losing all of their existing character. Other homes have smaller outdoor spaces where careful planning is important because every part of the garden needs to earn its place.
The wider residential area around Leeds Bradford Airport also includes homes with different levels, boundaries, access arrangements and exposure.
These details affect how a landscaping project should be approached.
Instead of treating a Yeadon garden makeover as a collection of separate products, we look at how the patio, lawn, fencing, paths and levels work together as one outdoor space.
For many garden transformations, the patio becomes the main usable outdoor living area.
It might sit immediately outside the house to provide easy access from the kitchen or living space, or be positioned elsewhere in the garden to take advantage of a particular aspect.
The paving itself is only part of the project.
Preparation, levels, falls, drainage, edges and connections with the surrounding lawn or landscaping all contribute to the finished result.
We install patios as individual projects and as part of complete garden makeovers.
A fresh lawn can completely change how a garden feels.
But laying turf over poorly prepared ground won't deliver the result most homeowners expect.
Our turfing projects can include preparing and levelling the area, improving the ground as required and laying fresh turf to create a natural lawn.
When incorporated into a wider garden makeover, we can also ensure the lawn meets surrounding paving and other features cleanly.
Not every household wants to mow and maintain a natural lawn.
Artificial grass can provide an alternative where homeowners want a consistently green area with less routine lawn maintenance.
Correct preparation underneath remains important.
The base, drainage, edges and joins all influence how the finished lawn looks and performs.
Artificial grass can be combined with paving, decking and other landscaping to create clearly defined areas within the garden.
Decking can be useful where you want to create a defined seating area or make better use of a change in level.
Depending on the garden and specification, timber or composite decking can be considered.
A properly planned deck needs more thought than simply choosing the visible boards.
The supporting structure, ventilation, drainage, access and how the deck connects with surrounding ground all need consideration.
Replacing tired fencing can make a surprisingly large difference to a garden makeover.
Fencing provides the backdrop to much of the outdoor space, as well as serving practical purposes such as privacy, security and boundary definition.
Where required, we can incorporate new fencing and gates into the wider landscaping project so they work with the patio, lawn and other features rather than looking like a separate job completed afterwards.
Drainage and ground conditions can have a major impact on how enjoyable a garden is to use.
A garden that regularly becomes waterlogged or muddy shouldn't simply be covered with new turf or paving without considering why the problem occurs.
Factors can include:
Some gardens around the wider Leeds area can also contain heavy or difficult ground, so drainage and preparation should be considered as part of the project where relevant.
We assess the actual garden rather than promising one drainage solution for every property.
Changes in level don't necessarily make a garden unusable.
In some cases, dividing the garden into defined levels can make the space more practical and visually interesting.
A project might incorporate:
The appropriate solution depends on the amount of level change and the construction required.
Where retaining structures or more substantial engineering work is involved, this needs to be properly considered as part of the project.
"Low maintenance" doesn't have to mean covering the entire garden in paving.
Often, a combination of surfaces produces a more attractive and practical result.
For example, a low-maintenance garden could combine:
Porcelain or stone paving for dining and seating.
Artificial grass for a softer green area.
Decking for an additional seating zone or change in level.
New fencing to create a clean backdrop and improve privacy.
Defined borders to retain planting without requiring extensive garden maintenance.
The aim is to reduce unwanted upkeep while keeping the garden feeling like an outdoor space rather than simply another hard surface.
Family gardens need to accommodate different activities.
Parents may want an outdoor dining area while children need usable lawn space. Secure fencing might be important, while paths need to connect different areas without wasting too much of the available garden.
A practical family garden makeover could therefore combine:
Planning these elements together usually creates a more coherent result than adding them one at a time over several years.
We'll discuss your existing garden, what you'd like to change and how you want to use the finished space.
We consider access, existing materials, levels, drainage and the different areas of the garden.
We'll discuss the proposed landscaping, materials and work required before providing your quotation.
Existing landscaping is removed where necessary and the garden is prepared for the new installation.
Hard landscaping, paving, decking, fencing and lawn areas are installed according to the agreed project.
We complete the finishing details and review the transformed garden with you.
There isn't one meaningful average price for a garden makeover because the phrase can describe anything from replacing a patio and lawn to rebuilding almost the entire outdoor space.
The cost can be influenced by:
The best approach is to decide what you want the garden to achieve and then price the actual work required.
We provide quotations based on the individual property rather than advertising a generic makeover package.

If several parts of the existing garden already work, there may be no reason to remove them.
For example, we could retain a healthy lawn while replacing the patio and fencing.
Or an existing patio might remain while an unused lawn area is redesigned.
The advantage of looking at the garden as a complete space is that we can decide what should stay as well as what should change.
That can often be more practical than automatically starting from scratch.
If you only need one improvement, an individual service may be more appropriate.
For example:
Need somewhere to sit and dine? Consider a new patio.
Want a natural lawn? Our turfing service may be enough.
Want less lawn maintenance? Consider artificial grass.
Need more privacy? New fencing may solve the problem.
Have several of these problems at once? That's when a complete garden makeover becomes particularly useful.
