Gardens that feel finished

Design, planting and hard landscaping — one team, no hand-offs.

We wanted somewhere the kids could kick a ball without it feeling like a car park. Lily drew it properly, the lads were here six weeks, and the planting still looks good two summers on.

Lily Emort

I started Emort Landscaping after ten years with larger firms where the person who designed your garden never saw it built. Here, I sketch it, price it, and my team and I build it — so the levels, drains and planting actually match the drawing.

Courtyard was a mess of broken slabs and weeds. Now it is the room we use most evenings. Quote matched the final bill.

Lily listened to what we did not want — no fake grass, no raised beds we would never weed. Sensible planting list.

Drive and side path done while we were on holiday. Photos every few days, place swept on completion. Rare nowadays.
