Producing a Site Survey

Any design work must be undertaken using an accurate survey as the basis for plans and drawings. This usually involves producing a site survey from a series of measurements taken around the garden including changes in level. This is backed up with a series of digital photos of the site to record existing features and a detailed site analysis. The site analysis indicates the soil quality and PH (essential for planting recommendation) prevailing conditions, the garden aspect and any unusual conditions (areas of water retention or very shady spaces). These notes and the survey serve as a valuable resource for producing your new garden design

All surveys carried out by Eden Landscape Design are done so using professional levelling and measuring equipment.

It is sometimes necessary to instruct an external surveyor to undertake this work. Usually when the site is complicated, very large or has many changes in level.

This is carried out by a qualified Land Surveyor as recommended.
