We may think we are nurturing our garden, but of course it’s our garden that is really nurturing us.
JENNY UGLOW
We have worked with Chris over a number of years, and would not consider anyone else. From the start he understood our requirements and we saw in him someone who understood the quality we wanted. From some rough ideas about design, Chris was able to work with us on the details and materials and to deliver exactly what we required. His hard work, conscientiousness and knowledge kept us on track and enabled us to coordinate his work with a number of house alterations and trades. It is clear Chris is a perfectionist and takes a great deal of pride in his workmanship, which is of the highest quality.
Anna & Chris Armitage
Chris and his team undertook a challenging and lengthy project and delivered a stunning outcome across all of the various features in the garden. Chris' attention to detail and his ability were outstanding. His artistry and vision in seeing the outcome both at the start of the project and during the build were incredible and now we continue to marvel at what we now live with and how well it stands the test of time some three years post completion.
We would thoroughly recommend Chris Ballard to anyone who is looking for a transformational project.
STUART ROUSE
From our first meeting, Chris was really enthusiastic about our patio and garden redesign and had great vision on how we could develop our plans further, including a terracing idea to help deal with the sloping site and add more interest. We hadn't though about lighting but Chris convinced us to allocate just a small amount of budget for it. It turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. The patio and garden look amazing lit up at night and it's something we can add to in the future. The team worked really hard creating an amazing garden for us. We can literally use every inch of it, from a kids play area with built in slide and chalkboard to a second patio half way up the garden to enjoy a beer in the evening summer sun!
KATE PEREZ
From the start, Chris provided fresh ideas and made valuable suggestions that were sympathetic to the period nature and style of the property. With a complex mix of requirements, his estimate was comprehensive and gave us options with detailed costings. We felt that for Chris, it was not just another job. He has a passion and enthusiasm for what he does and takes a pride in the quality of his craftsmanship, attention to detail and delivery of his work. He liaised with us during the project and allowed us to make changes as we went along. We are delighted with the finished result, which exceeded our initial plans and expectations.
PETER RENNISON
Chris Ballard was responsible for transforming our garden from unsightly impractical space into a well crafted and functional extension of our home. Every aspect of the job was first rate and I strongly feel Chris's passion for his craft underpinned everything he did for us. Not only is Chris a visionary and hard worker he heads up a competent and reliable workforce that echo his commitment to quality. We love our garden and can't wait for Spring to get back out there and continue enjoying it to it's full potential.
TOM WADE
You never get a second chance to make a first impression. From the off we will start with a discussion about everything you want from your garden, how you want it to make you feel and work for you. Be as bold or bemused as you feel, its our job to help you understand what is possible.
