Driveways, patios and gardens in Barnsley


Barnsley is within easy reach of our Pontefract base, and we cover the town along with Royston, Cudworth, Wombwell, Darfield, Hoyland, Dodworth, Penistone and the Dearne Valley villages.

Much of the housing sits on hillsides: stone terraces, interwar semis on sloping plots and newer estates cut into the valley sides. A garden on a slope is a garden most people give up on, and those are exactly the transformations we like doing.

Slopes, steps and retaining walls


Barnsley sits on the coal measures at the edge of the Pennines, so you get heavy clay and gradients in the same garden. Sloping plots waste space and send water straight at the house. Sleeper and block retaining walls, terraced levels and steps turn a slope into a garden you can use, and drainage built into the base keeps it dry.

Ex-mining ground can be made up and unpredictable underneath, so we dig out properly rather than trusting the surface.
