Design fees
I offer my first consultation free if you’re within about 45 minutes car journey of Hawkhurst. If you’re a little further away, I might need to charge for the extra travel time. If this is relevant, I’ll always confirm any charge before we schedule our meeting, so there are no surprises. For clients based further afield, a virtual consultation is also available. It’s a great way for us to explore your ideas, review your space, and discuss next steps without the need for travel. Following our detailed discussion I will follow up with an email summarising what we talked about. This will include practical next steps and an outline of specific fees.
The cost of a design depends on the size of your garden and how much detail you need. I’ve broken the process down into stages to give an approximation of overall cost. You may not need all of the steps and you can stop at any point if you feel you have what you need.
