Hi Olga, the best results for a design for the garden is to clean it out get a blank canvas. Then go all over it with the garden designer company and make sure they see what you like. Then ask the company to do a drawing. There are many possible ideas for soft and hard landscaping projects, it can get expensive. So go all over the drawings and get the quote all in writing. There are companies on here, just post the job. I would love to help you with the protect depending on we're you are. I hope that helps you. Kind regards Carl

Hi Olga, There are plenty of firms on here able to provide a complete garden design service. It would be helpful if you have some ideas as to what the end result should be and the designer will be able to put a design together that suits you. After all, you want a garden to be a reflection of yourself just as you would with interior design. I would warn you that full garden design and makeover can be quite expensive depending on how far you want to take it. I would recommend having a look round gardens near you and finding some ideas that you like. Work out what you want to use the garden for and then consider posting a job on here. Hope this helps Tom

Hi Olga. There are several tradesmen on Rated People that will happily take any ideas you have and incorporate them into building a garden for you. Some of us, me included, will actually suggest what would be best for certain areas of the garden and plan, design and build it for you. I hope this helps. Kindest regards, Mike Belton Belton Landscaping
