Transforming Gardens in Takeley: Premium Landscaping Services by Sendhurst Landscapes

At Sendhurst Landscapes, we believe that every outdoor space has the potential to be something truly special. Based in Takeley and proudly serving Uttlesford, Bishop's Stortford, and the wider Essex and Hertfordshire region, we’ve spent over 15 years helping homeowners, landlords, and commercial clients create beautiful, functional, and lasting outdoor environments.

Whether you’re looking to completely redesign your garden, improve your kerb appeal, or simply solve long-standing issues with drainage, paving, or fencing, our experienced team is here to bring your vision to life.

Why Landscaping Matters

Your garden is more than just a patch of land – it’s an extension of your home. It’s the first thing people see, a space to relax, entertain, play, and connect with nature. A well-planned landscape doesn’t just look good – it adds real value to your property, improves wellbeing, supports biodiversity, and reduces maintenance in the long run.

At Sendhurst, we combine thoughtful design, expert workmanship, and local knowledge to deliver landscaping solutions that look great and last for years.

Landscaping Services We Offer

We cover all aspects of hard and soft landscaping, including:

1. Garden Design & Planning

From initial sketches to full-scale design plans, we work with you to create a layout that suits your lifestyle, budget, and the natural features of your space. Whether it's a low-maintenance family garden, a contemporary courtyard, or a cottage-style haven, our design process ensures the end result is both beautiful and functional.

2. Patios & Paving

We install a wide range of surfaces, from natural stone and porcelain slabs to gravel paths and block paving. Whether you’re after a sunlit patio, a winding garden path, or a smart new driveway, we’ll lay it right the first time, with correct drainage, levels, and finishes.

3. Decking & Timber Work

Decking can transform an uneven or unusable space into a perfect platform for entertaining or relaxing. We offer both softwood and composite decking, as well as timber features like pergolas, planters, and raised beds.

4. Turfing & Artificial Grass

Fresh turf can bring instant impact, while artificial grass provides a durable, low-maintenance option for busy families or shaded gardens. We prepare the ground properly to ensure long-term results.

5. Fencing & Boundaries

Whether you need panel fencing, closeboard, trellis, or bespoke timber work, we ensure your property is secure and stylish. We also install concrete and wooden posts, gravel boards, and gates.

6. Planting & Borders

We’ll help you select the right trees, shrubs, perennials, and seasonal flowers for your soil, aspect, and lifestyle. We prepare the ground thoroughly, plant with care, and offer advice on future maintenance.

7. Garden Clearance & Groundworks

We also handle site clearance, drainage, leveling, topsoil, and Type 1 MOT basework – giving you a blank canvas on which to build.

Local Expertise You Can Trust

We’re proud to be part of the Takeley community and understand the unique challenges of working in Essex and Hertfordshire’s varied landscapes – from clay soils and flint-heavy ground to sloping plots and narrow access. Our team has decades of hands-on experience in overcoming these issues, and we always work tidily, safely, and with full insurance.

Because we’re local, we care deeply about our reputation, and most of our work comes from referrals and repeat clients. That’s why we focus on:

• Clear communication

• Reliable schedules

• Fair pricing

• Quality results

• Respect for your home and privacy
