Comprehensive hard landscaping services for homes in Andover, Salisbury, Winchester, Newbury, Basingstoke, and throughout Hampshire. From patios to driveways, fencing to walls, we handle every aspect with expert craftsmanship.
What We Offer
Our comprehensive services cover all aspects of hard landscaping. We handle every stage – design, preparation, and construction – so you can enjoy a seamless experience from first consultation to final walkthrough. We provide free, detailed quotes and use only the best materials.
Patios & Decking
Extend your living space outdoors with a stunning patio or deck designed and built by Tom Digby Landscapes. We specialise in creating beautiful, functional outdoor areas that become the heart of your garden – perfect for summer entertaining, family barbecues, or simply relaxing in the Hampshire sunshine.
Our patio installation service covers a wide range of materials to suit every style and budget. We work with traditional block paving for a classic look, natural stone options including Indian sandstone, limestone, and granite for timeless elegance, and modern porcelain tiles for a contemporary finish that's incredibly low-maintenance. Whatever material you choose, every patio we build is laid on a properly compacted sub-base with appropriate drainage to ensure longevity and prevent issues like subsidence or water pooling.
For those who prefer the warmth and natural beauty of timber, we construct stunning decks using both traditional hardwoods and modern composite materials. Composite decking has become increasingly popular due to its durability, splinter-free surface, and minimal maintenance requirements – no annual treatments needed. We can incorporate raised areas, built-in seating, planters, and even outdoor lighting to create a truly bespoke outdoor living space.
Driveways & Paths
First impressions matter, and your driveway is often the first thing visitors see. At Tom Digby Landscapes, we design and install driveways that not only look stunning but are built to withstand years of daily use from vehicles and foot traffic.
Block paving remains our most popular driveway option, offering endless design possibilities with various colours, patterns, and edging options. From traditional herringbone patterns to contemporary linear designs, we can create a driveway that perfectly complements your home's architecture. All our block-paved driveways include proper edge restraints and jointing sand to prevent movement and weed growth.
For a more contemporary look, resin-bound driveways provide a smooth, permeable surface that's both attractive and practical – meeting SuDS regulations for water drainage. Gravel driveways offer a cost-effective, rustic charm and excellent drainage, while tarmac provides a durable, low-maintenance solution ideal for longer driveways.
We also create beautiful garden paths using matching materials to create a cohesive look throughout your property. Stepping stone paths, formal pathways, and winding garden trails – whatever your vision, we can bring it to life.
Gates & Fencing
Quality fencing provides privacy, security, and defines your garden boundaries while adding visual appeal to your property. At Tom Digby Landscapes, we supply and install a comprehensive range of fence panels, posts, and gates, all custom-fitted to your specific requirements.
Our most popular option is closeboard (also known as featheredge) fencing – a robust, traditional style that offers excellent privacy and wind resistance. Each panel is individually constructed on-site using overlapping vertical boards fixed to horizontal rails, creating a strong, attractive fence that can be built to any height up to 2 metres without planning permission.
For those wanting something lighter, we offer panel fencing in various styles, decorative trellis panels for climbing plants, and contemporary slatted fencing for a modern aesthetic. We also install post-and-rail fencing for rural properties and agricultural boundaries.
Every fence installation includes properly set concrete posts (or timber posts for rustic looks), gravel boards to protect the bottom of panels from ground moisture, and quality fixtures throughout. We carefully advise on the best fencing solution for your specific site conditions – for example, we helped one Salisbury client choose heavy-duty fencing specifically designed to withstand the strong winds their property experienced.
Walls & Brickwork
Garden walls add structure, define spaces, and can transform a flat, uninspiring garden into an interesting, multi-level outdoor room. Whether you need a practical retaining wall to manage a sloped site or decorative raised beds to enhance your planting, Tom Digby Landscapes delivers expert brickwork and blockwork that stands the test of time.
Retaining walls are essential for gardens on slopes, preventing soil erosion while creating usable flat areas. We construct retaining walls using appropriate materials and techniques for the height and load requirements, including proper drainage to prevent water pressure building up behind the wall.
Raised beds have become increasingly popular, making gardening more accessible and adding architectural interest to any garden. We build raised beds in brick, block, sleepers, or natural stone to match your garden's style. They're perfect for growing vegetables, creating herb gardens, or displaying favourite plants at eye level.
Our brickwork services extend to garden boundary walls, decorative feature walls, barbecue areas, and outdoor steps. Every wall we build is constructed on appropriate foundations, with proper damp-proof courses where needed, and finished to a high standard that our bricklayers take great pride in.
Lawns & Turf
Nothing completes a garden quite like a beautiful lawn. Whether you dream of a pristine green carpet for summer picnics or a practical play area for children and pets, Tom Digby Landscapes can create the perfect lawn for your lifestyle.
For natural lawn installation, we use high-grade cultivated turf sourced from reputable suppliers. Proper ground preparation is crucial for a successful lawn, so we thoroughly cultivate the soil, remove stones and debris, level the surface, and apply appropriate fertiliser before laying your new turf. The result is a lush, green lawn that establishes quickly and looks beautiful from day one.
Artificial grass has become an increasingly popular choice for busy families, pet owners, and anyone wanting a pristine lawn without the maintenance. Modern artificial turf looks remarkably realistic and provides a year-round green space that never needs mowing, watering, or treating. We install artificial grass on a properly prepared base with appropriate drainage, ensuring a flat, natural-looking finish that will last for many years.
We also offer lawn renovation services for existing lawns that need some TLC. This can include scarifying to remove thatch, aerating to improve drainage and root growth, overseeding bare patches, and top-dressing to level out undulations.
Design & Planning
Great landscaping starts with great design. At Tom Digby Landscapes, we work collaboratively with you to develop a tailored landscape plan that meets your needs, reflects your style, and makes the most of your outdoor space.
Our design process begins with an initial site survey where we assess your garden's size, shape, aspect, soil conditions, and any existing features. We take the time to listen to your ideas, understand how you want to use the space, and discuss your budget and priorities. Whether you arrive with detailed Pinterest boards and magazine clippings or just a vague idea that you'd like "something nice," we can work with you to develop a clear vision.
From this consultation, we create detailed layout plans showing the position of patios, paths, lawns, planting areas, and features. For larger projects or where it helps you visualise the finished result, we can produce 3D computer models that let you "walk through" your new garden before any work begins.
Our design service also includes practical considerations like drainage, access for construction, and any planning permission or building regulations that might apply. We'll advise if your project requires approval and can help navigate the application process if needed. With Tom Digby Landscapes, you get a complete service from initial concept through to finished garden.
