Berrie garden design places a strong emphasis on meeting individuals’ needs, therefore a flexible service is offered:
Survey
All gardens require a survey before any design work can commence. This ensures that the garden design is drawn to scale and minimises errors at the construction stage. If the garden is too large or complex, a professional surveyor will be recommended.
Fees
Surveying: £35 per hour. Professional surveyor: Fee to be advised.
Design Work
An individualised, detailed outline plan of the design is drawn using the survey information. The outline plan will show how all the soft and hard landscape elements will work together in relation to the existing space and elements which will be retained.
 Once the outline plan has been approved, a planting plan is designed.
Any necessary building specification documents and construction drawings are drawn up too, if required. There is an additional charge for these services.
Fee structure
A quote cannot be given over the phone, however, a written quote can be given after the consultation visit (plus sundries). In some cases a written quote may be given after the initial consultation.
30% of the agreed fee is payable upon acceptance of the commission.
40% of the agreed fee is due upon presentation of the outline plan.
The remainder of the fee is due upon presentation of the final plans e.g. Planting plans, specification documents, construction drawings etc.
All revisions of the plans are extra and are charged at £35 per hour.
Sundry costs. A small fee for the printing of the plans, documentation and postage is charged at cost.
