New-build properties in Romsey and across the Test Valley often come with plots of bare compacted subsoil. This project turned one such plot into a complete, attractive garden in just four days — exactly the kind of fast-turnaround, high-quality work that A&T Landscapes specialises in.
The Challenge
The 9m x 7m rear plot had been used as a storage area during construction and consisted of heavily compacted subsoil with rubble throughout. Significant ground preparation was needed before any finished landscaping could begin.
- Full topsoil strip and rubble removal
- Import of 150mm screened topsoil throughout
- Rotovation and levelling across the full plot
- Pre-turfing fertiliser incorporated throughout
The Finished Garden
The completed garden included a 20m² porcelain patio with a step down to lawn level, 48m² of premium cultivated turf, a timber-edged planting border along the rear fence and a new timber gate.
Project Timeline
Day one: ground preparation and sub-base for patio. Day two: patio laying. Day three: topsoil preparation and turf laying. Day four: planting border, gate and final tidy. Four days from start to finish.
