DRIVES & FRONT GARDENS
First impressions are always important. The front of your property is the first thing that you or your visitors will see upon arrival.
We will work closely with you to define your needs & tastes and to provide you with expert advice and workmanship to achieve your desired look.
Driveways should be laid out to accommodate easy manoeuvring of vehicles, while still presenting an inviting entrance to the pedestrian. Security must be considered as well as bin storage, services, boundaries, gates and perhaps lighting and/or electric gates. We can solve all these issues and still create something beautiful that is built to last.

The first consultation is free of charge as is producing quotations for work; design work is chargeable, I can give you a fixed price for this based on the size & the complexity of your garden and based on your needs.
Please Read Our Reviews
John designed a lovely garden and deck area for us, which makes most of the space. The low planting plan has worked well too, and it looks green all year around.
We are very pleased with the work of John Gale and his team. He showed a deep knowledge of landscaping construction and dedication to his work. We wish him success in all his endeavours.
John is a fantastic landscape gardener and built the Amphitheatre at the Infant’s school (which is still as solid as the day it was built) and built a play area, out of timber, for us too. I also know of many others who are pleased with his work.
John carried out work for us involving the laying of a patio and pathways, necessary preparation work and installation of garden lighting. We had no snagging issues and at the end of the project our garden was left in pristine condition. In terms of other comments I would only say that John is meticulous and I wouild have no hesitation in recommending him.
Quality of work was excellent. John is a real perfectionist and works incredibly hard to make the vision come alive. He doesn’t cut corners and is always willing to look at different ways of doing things – expensive and cheaper options. Work was completed to the budget we agreed. Very friendly but not at all intrusive on our lives. Very reliable – turned up promptly every day. Neat, tidy and no hassle. I absolutely recommend him and his work.
“We have worked with John Gale Landscapes twice now, at two separate properties.
On both occasions we were very happy with the process and the final result. John took time to talk over our requirements and ideas. He interpreted these perfectly and showed us clear plans and drawings of what was proposed. The work was completed in a timely fashion and the site was always left in good order. A curved bull-nosed stone step was beautifully executed and the attention to detail when decking around an old tree was excellent.
Both projects were finished on time and on budget.”
John made some good suggestions to improve on what we were trying to achieve. His team was excellent and worked extremely hard to finish the job. We were very pleased with the end result of a curved brick mowing strip, a brick wall and a relaid lawn. We would have no hesitation to use them again for our next project.
John laid our front drive, rebuilt our walls and railings a few years ago and we were so pleased with the result that we had him back to do our back garden. John has excellent attention to detail which extends to very precise symmetry in the garden layout, making it very pleasing to the eye. We were extremely pleased with the result. John’s team worked hard and the project ran smoothly right through to the final sweep up.
