Petersfield and Surrounding Areas
Many of us enjoy gardening and keeping a well planted space in order can be very rewarding work. However, it is also time consuming and if left too long, your outdoor space can quickly become untidy and suffer from neglect.
This is where we come in!
Covering all areas in Hampshire, such as Petersfield and New Alresford - we can work with you to design, build and plant your ideal landscape as a one off. Or our maintenance team can be scheduled in; either a one off clearance job or on a regular basis to keep on top of those garden chores.
We are fully insured and are also licensed to remove all of your green waste.
Soft Landscaping
Will, the founder of BGS is an experienced horticultural gardener and as per our philosophy – extremely passionate about wildflowers and plants.
You can take assurance in the fact the skilled team at BGS will only work with quality plants that are specifically chosen for the location of the bed taking into consideration positioning, soil type and space to grow in order for them thrive in the years to come; especially if you arrange for us to keep up a regular maintenance schedule.
If you’d like to give your garden an uplift, replacing an old lawn can be a fantastic way to do so. We only use premium grade turf from suppliers we trust and do so at an affordable rate. Adding a hedge can be a fantastic way to not only add interest into a garden but also create a physical screen/boundary from neighboring properties. The team at BGS can advise on which hedge type is best suited for your location and needs.
General Maintenance
Whether it is a one off, or a regular arrangement - the team at BGS enjoy stepping in and doing the work to ensure your garden is looking cared for, and in tip-top shape regardless of the season.
Examples include mowing your lawn regularly, maintaining flower beds, Leaf blowing, pruning and shaping of shrubs and hedges to prevent them from encroaching on your space.
To prevent your garden from becoming unkempt and overgrown, we can set up a schedule with you so that we stay on top of those gardening chores. We are happy to either work from a list of things you would like prioritised or to use our expertise and initiative to carry out the jobs that we can see need undertaking.
Hard Landscaping
Concreate, natural stone, porcelain – you name your style and Will and the team at BGS can lay it. We understand that patios can be quite the investment for homeowners, so we will be on hand to discuss options and provide expert opinion to ensure you choose a patio that lasts years to come.
From bespoke close-board fencing to concrete posts and lap-panels Will and the team are able to install all types of fencing and take great care in ensuring all of the details are taken care of to leave you with a perfect new fence.
Will, his landscaping team and trusted subcontractors can undertake projects of all sizes from simple sleeper beds to renovating gardens from scratch. We can either follow pre-made garden plans or help with our professional eye to advise on different options you could undertake to leave you with a garden to be proud of.
Biodiversity
At BGS, we are passionate about increasing biodiversity; it’s at the very heart of why Will formed the company.
If you have an area of the garden that you are unsure on what to do with – Wildflower turf can be a great solution. Not only is it fantastic for the environment increasing biodiversity & attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies it is also a low maintenance solution requiring only one-two cuts per year!
Did you know that wildflowers and grasses help to catch both water & air pollution. They actually capture CO2 more efficiently than trees and store it into the soil. There are multiple choices of wildflower products with six pre-made turf options: Landscape 34 Turf, Species Rich Lawn Turf, Shade Tolerant, SuDS, Native Enriched, Wildflower Roof Turf.
If the job is undertaken in the autumn additional interest and variety can be added by spreading a crate of specially selected bulbs underneath the turf. Another way in which we can create a wildflower area is to spread Meadowscape Pro which is a premixed seed and topsoil.
Bespoke turf and Meadowscape can also be created and installed upon request.
