I have just moved to a house with a very worn out garden. It's relatively large (for London that is) but basically pretty bare with a few trees and an interesting but rotting raised decking bit at the end. I'm a single mum now and can't physically take out the trees and the concrete patio, returf or repair the decking. I do enjoy gardening but I'm not that great at it so I am contemplating having someone in. I'm not sure whether to go the whole hog and get a designer + labourers, or to get a jobbing gardener to do the heavy stuff. Has anyone had a designer type person? Would you recommend it and what sort of costs does it entail? I'm not looking for something spectacular, just a nice shape, plants that are happy and space(s) for me and my two very active children to relax and play. Any advice gratefully received!
