Overgrown garden cleared & turfed
FerndownA back garden lost under long grass and overgrown shrubs, cleared, levelled and returned to a proper lawn with fresh turf, with the swing seat and washing line back in use.
Patios, driveways, turfing, fencing and full garden makeovers for homes across Ferndown, West Parley, West Moors and Stapehill — from a local team that's been here since 2009.
GM Garden Landscapes started in Ferndown in 2009 with one van, a digger and a simple idea: do proper landscaping, properly. We're still based here today, so for most Ferndown jobs we're just around the corner — for the site visit, the build and afterwards.
We work right across the town and the villages around it, including Tricketts Cross, Stapehill, Ameysford, Longham, Hampreston, West Parley and West Moors.
Much of Ferndown sits on light, sandy heathland soil. It drains quickly, which is good news for gravel driveways and patios, but new lawns need decent topsoil underneath and watering through the first dry spell to establish well. We plan for that from the start.
We also look after local gardens week in, week out — one West Parley customer has had us doing maintenance and landscaping for almost ten years.

A 100 sqm dark grey porcelain patio wrapping around the back of the house and conservatory, giving the owners somewhere to sit out on every side. It's framed with a charcoal kerb-stone border against the lawn and pointed with easy-grout for a clean, low-maintenance finish.
Very pleased with the driveway GM Garden Landscapes completed for us. Tidy, efficient and friendly workers with a high level of attention to detail.
