Looks great, you must be happy with it. few small things i would change but thats just my personal taste.

I think what you have shown here is how a contractor and client should work together to complete a contract. You have ideas and they bring them to life.

We've been given strict instructions on watering the grass at least daily, the wetter the better :)

Back again :)

Front garden getting a little attention too, bye bye rotten log roll, wall in progress as weekend work to keep the costs down a little. The wall top is level from left to right, the garden slopes. A little tickling of the planting once the wall is done, to be finished with bark chippings - we haven't barked the rear borders, doesn't seem to work, but we think it'll look good on the front:

Hog back on the rear wall was a kind of 'gift' come extra, the contractor did it as a nicety as he enjoyed the job so much - doing the same on the front wall would have increased the price too much and we also felt it looked better flat-top so the plants in the borders don't get hidden :)

Contractors are http://www.gardenstransformed.com/

New website coming at some stage, a little bit of collaboration on my side :)

A little update, we've finally finished the new website for GardensTransformed, and are currently working on the search rankings :)

Hopefully you all find it nicer than the old one, Dougie is extremely chuffed!
