Landscaping Solutions Ltd have just won their second BALI accolade. We look at what went into the this award-winning garden.

Landscaping Solutions chose Britannia Buff Yorkstone to create a traditional feel that immediately felt at home with the original boundary wall.

I was absolutely delighted to hear that one of our Landscape clients had recently won their second BALI award.  Landscaping Solutions Ltd are a Surrey-based design-and-build company and won their award in the domestic build category for gardens in the £30,000-£60,000 budget range.  The award-winning garden features decking, London stock brickwork, water features, timber screening, amazing planting and natural stone paving. 

It's striking that, even though the garden is traditionally designed it gives the feel of being a true extension to the family's living space - something which in my experience is usually reserved for more contemporary-styled gardens.

Landscaping Solutions were looking to source a clear Buff Yorkstone Paving.  Owner Ben West came down to our depot to view our stock of bespoke material Yorkstone raw material.  This is where we prepare stone for bespoke projects. The stone that we had in stock was not the right colour, so we used our stone contacts to locate the type of raw material that Ben was looking for.  Eventually we located some blocks of Britannia Buff Yorkstone that met the project specification and, from then on, it was all systems go.

Using our own wire-saw we cut the blocks down in 900x600x40mm paving. 900x600 is a really popular size for our clients.  There was also some bespoke stone requirements for the project and we supplied a number of sawn Yorkstone bench tops.  These were supplied with pencil rounded edges and perfectly complemented the paving.
