What People Are Saying About Us

"Thank You So Much Indeed..."

....for the design plan for our garden. We are so pleased with all your design work and advice and know that our garden will be really beautiful.

"Looking Forward to the Spring"

I am writing to tell you how delighted we are with our newly landscaped garden. The overall design effect is so much better than we has anticipated and we are looking forward to the spring to enjoy the planting themes. The contractor you kindly suggested has done an excellent job of realising your design at a good price.

"Appealing & Practical Design"

FFC helped us with a masterplan for our suburban garden. Francis digested our initial ideas and came up with a number of options for different layouts. In discussion with us he developed the masterplan as an informative drawing with enough detail for us to pass on to a landscape contractor for pricing. This has been a helpful stage in the garden project and we can recommend FFC to assist in turning a garden concept in to an appealing and practical proposition that can be readily costed.
