This project called for the complete make-over of a plain garden space, that was unused and laid to lawn. The customer requested a raised 'L-Shaped' deck with space for dining, relaxing and cooking. The deck height increased visibility into the neighbours garden, so we suggested a slatted privacy wall and incorporated a covered BBQ area. The final additions were to build a small storage shed / bar around the end of the hedge to infill a prominent gap and a full width outdoor bench next to the BBQ.
We converted the existing gravelled pond area into a raised deck and sunken pool. The old timber path in front of the garden room was also rotten, so was replaced that with matching decking boards to create a seamless flow back to the customers house.
