Full back-garden landscaping typically lands between £8,000 and £35,000+ depending on size and finishes.

Do I need permission from Guildford Borough Council?

For most landscaping project work, no - but anything affecting the public highway (dropped kerbs) or a conservation frontage goes through Guildford Borough Council. We'll tell you on the visit which forms apply.

Planning a landscaping project around Send?

A landscaping project in Send has to respond to more than a postcode. Send is a strung-out village along the Wey canal with period cottages, 1960s-80s detached estates and a smaller cluster of newer-build around Cartbridge. The clay-and-canal-fill ground near the water is unstable enough that we engineer drives and patios with proper sub-base depths. We inspect access from A247, A3 within 4 miles, no station - Woking and Clandon within 5 miles. and build the quotation around mature trees that need protected root zones during groundworks, with materials and stages written down before work starts.

Page purpose

For property upgrade briefs, a generic regional specification would miss the local plot conditions.

Adding a discreet utility zone behind a screen for bins, bikes and a compost run, relevant landscaping detail for GU23 properties near Old Woking

Read the plot before choosing the finish

Send is inside our 30-mile core area, so site visits are arranged within a week and project supervision is daily, not weekly.
We've spent enough time on GU23 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a landscaping project - the north-facing gardens that benefit from lighter porcelain and reflective planting that gets missed when a national firm quotes from a desk.
Quotes are written, fixed and broken down by stage, with the same crew on site from day one through to clean-down.

A closer proof match

Customers in GU23 can ask for two or three recent addresses to drive past before agreeing the quote - we don't quote work we can't show.

“Steve and his team have been brilliant - from first quote, to waiting patiently through lockdown, and then waiting on me to get everything sorted for him to start. What seemed like an easy job soon turned into a full on hardcore days graft, yet Steve just got on with the job and got it all completed. I am over the moon with the end result and would highly recommend him.”

FAQs - Landscaping in Send

Can you cover Old Woking as part of the same local run?: Yes. Old Woking sits within our normal Send working cluster, so it can be grouped with nearby surveys rather than treated as a distant call-out.
What should I send before a GU23 site visit?: A wide photo, approximate dimensions, access width and a note about the intended use are enough to make the first conversation useful.
How is the quote made specific to this property?: It records excavation or foundation assumptions, materials, disposal, access, programme and exclusions. The allowance is based on the measured site rather than copied from another town.
What changes the specification around Send?: The first local issue we check is mature trees that need protected root zones during groundworks. We also look at access, levels and whether Guildford Borough Council needs to be involved before fixing the construction detail.

What to do before requesting a price

The right result here is one that fits the property rather than a standard package. Bring us the outcome you want and we will turn it into a written local specification. This recommendation is scoped to Send landscaping enquiries.
