Case Study - Elevated fence
This study follows the design and construction of a contemporary fence on the top of an existing wall.
Elevated fence - design to completion
The initial problem to overcome with this project is how to set the fence on the old stone wall with enough strength to keep the fence in place during high winds, without compromising the wall integrity.
We designed a bespoke post support that could be attached to the wall, using high strength resin and bolts, then hid them behind the fence.

Case Study - Formal water feature
Project design was the key to this project. The customer wanted a water feature but was not sure of what kind, size or shape. After our first meeting, we proposed a formal, 'L' shaped pond with a water blade to create movement and interest.
After the initial design was agreed, the materials for the external surfaces were agreed and a quotation submitted.
