Landscapers in Marple
Marple sits where suburban Stockport runs out and the Peak District starts, and the gardens reflect it - bigger plots, more level changes, and clients who actually use the garden in weather most people wouldn't. The briefs tend to be ambitious.
What's different about gardens here
Plenty of properties around the canal and Brabyns Park sit on awkward gradients with stone underneath rather than topsoil. We've learned to spec heavier groundworks here than we would in flatter parts of Stockport. Done properly, the same slope that's a headache becomes the best feature in the garden.

Garden design and landscaping services in Marple
Marple gardens slope and the rock isn't far down. Most of our SK6 work combines multi-level garden design with stone retaining walls, terraced patios, proper drainage and outdoor living spaces like fire-pit terraces. We spec heavier groundworks here than we would on flat ground.

Frequently asked questions about landscaping in Marple
How do you build retaining walls on rocky ground?
We core into the bedrock for anchor points where needed, then build either dressed stone, gabion or reinforced sleeper structures depending on the load and the look you want.
Can you fit a fire pit or outdoor living space in Marple?
Yes. Most of our larger Marple jobs include a fire-pit terrace or covered seating area as part of the overall design.
How long does a sloped garden build take?
Eight to twelve weeks is typical for a full multi-level rebuild. We give a programme up front and we're realistic about weather impact.
Marple is around forty minutes via the A6. We schedule visits in advance.
