How we work

Foundations before finishes.

the part nobody sees decides how long it lasts

How a project runs

Built up in courses, like the ground itself.

    Walk the garden together

    Ideas, materials and honest advice on what will work on your ground, before anything is dug.

  2. 02

    A written quote, properly specified

    Depth of dig, sub-base, drainage and finish all set out, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

  3. 03

    Groundwork done right

    The part nobody sees is the part that decides how long it lasts. We spend the time here.

    The finish, then a clean site

    Laid, pointed and detailed. Garden and frontage swept before we leave.

About Fords

A small team, kept that way on purpose.

Fords Landscape & Gardening is led by Liam, working across leicestershire and the surrounding counties. The people who walk your garden and write the quote are the people who build it, and most of the work comes the best way it can: recommended on by the gardens next door.

Why Fords

Done right, rather than done fast.

A small, hands-on team, kept that way on purpose. Every patio, driveway and border gets the time it deserves, and every client gets our full attention.

    Advice on materials and finishes

    Stone, porcelain, block or timber. We walk you through the options and recommend what will look best and last longest.

  2. 02

    You deal directly with Liam

    The people who quote the job are the people who build it. No call centre, no passing the buck.

  3. 03

    Foundations before finishes

    A patio is only as good as what is beneath it. We take the time underground that others skip.

  4. 04

    Recommended by neighbours

    Most of our work comes by word of mouth: clients who recommend us on, then call us back for the next project.
