For complex gardens with awkward layouts/levels and for large scale projects, we use Ian Humby Land Surveys to carry out a full garden survey.

The survey will incorporate the entire area to be designed;

  • The building or buildings
  • DPC (damp proof course), windows, doors, lights, taps, flues, steps etc
  • Any existing features – trees, large shrubs, borders, ponds, terraces, boundaries, walls etc
  • Inspection chambers, rain water pipes, locations of services (where possible), overhead cables etc
  • Relevant levels all around the garden and features, including a datum point (usually DPC). Invert levels of inspection chambers will be recorded, where required, such as for the construction of swimming pools

If Living Landscapes have carried out the survey, it will be presented alongside our outline proposal.

A copy of a survey by Ian Humby will be forwarded to the client or, in the case of the client liaising directly with Ian, he will send us a copy to work with.
