Landscape Architects & Designers Near Southend-on-Sea

“Tom, Andrei and all the team have been fantastic from start to finish. Tom listened to all we wanted to achieve and came up with a great design. The guys started in January and had to work through some awful weather conditions. They were always early, polite and worked tirelessly to complete the project. The guys have even popped back to sort a tiny problem quickly and without any fuss. I’m absolutely delighted with the final results and am now enjoying the Summer in our beautiful new garden. I would highly recommend Tom and his team if you’re looking for the best in class.”

“Wanting to give our business to a local firm we searched online for garden designers in Leigh on sea. The search came up with ED Gardens. From the moment we met Katrina we knew she was on our wavelength. As keen amateur gardeners we knew what we wanted and it only took our initial meeting for Katrina to come up with a design that reflected our needs. The build started a few months later and whilst the project took longer than originally anticipated you couldn't fault Dominic and Aaron ( ED's building team) for their efforts over the eight weeks. They consulted us on even the smallest matters and also came up with suggestions when we were short of ideas. It really was a team effort within Katrina's original design. It should be said that Matt was always there in the background if needed. He made things happen in terms of materials, technical support etc. His perseverance in managing to get hold of a short length of missing drain cover is admirable!! The finished build is brilliant and after I had completed the planting a year on, it really is beginning to look good. Having said that, I would have felt confident to leave the planting to ED if I was so inclined. As a final comment , I should say that the garden has had many admiring comments both from passing neighbours and our knowledgeable gardening friends. A marvellous job. Many thanks everybody involved. Phil Staines, Leigh on sea, Essex.”

“A Truly Outstanding Landscape Designer – 100% Recommended I feel incredibly lucky to have found Peter Reader through an online search when looking to redesign our family garden in North London. What initially caught my eye was that Peter was previously an NHS GP—like me! What’s most striking is that he transitioned from a career in medicine to follow his true lifelong passion—horticulture—and it clearly shows in the dedication and creativity he brings to his work. I thought this background must reflect intelligence, professionalism, integrity and sound judgement, and I was absolutely right. Peter is an outstanding landscape designer and a thoroughly decent, personable, and trustworthy individual. From our very first meeting, it was clear he deeply understands all aspects of garden design—from hardscaping to the careful selection of plants that suit both the space and the brief. He listened to our ideas with real care, incorporated all our wishes, and was always happy to tweak elements until the design felt just right. His patience, attention to detail, and commitment to quality were exactly what we needed. As a perfectionist, I was particularly impressed by the precision and thought he brought to every stage of the project. Peter not only created a beautiful design but also worked closely with the landscape contractors to ensure the plan was executed to the highest standard. Nothing was too much trouble, and he brought a calm, reassuring presence throughout the process. The result is a garden even more beautiful than we could have imagined. It's a space that brings us daily joy, and we couldn’t be more delighted with the outcome. Our teenage children now prefer being outdoors with their friends rather than indoors! Peter Reader is a rare find. The NHS’s loss is truly a huge gain for the world of landscape design. Our family recommend him 100%—he will help you create the garden of your dreams!”
