Why Homeowners Choose Us
Why Homeowners Choose Total Driveway Specialist Ltd for Landscaping in Goffs Oak
Structural garden work carries more risk if done incorrectly than most surface level jobs, which is why we treat retaining walls and groundworks with the same care as any load bearing structure.
01
Correctly specified foundations
Particularly for retaining walls, where getting this wrong can lead to movement or failure over time.
02
Fully insured, experienced tradespeople
Carrying out structural and surfacing work to a consistent standard.
03
Clear, written quotes

04
Careful attention to drainage and levels

We would rather explain what a project genuinely requires than under specify a wall or path that fails to hold up over time.
Retaining Walls
Retaining Wall and Garden Wall Options
A retaining wall needs to do more than look good, it needs to hold ground securely and drain correctly. We install several types depending on the site and the look you are after.
- Sleeper retaining walls. Using timber sleepers to create a natural, robust finish well suited to level changes in garden settings.
- Gabion retaining walls. Using stone filled wire cages for a distinctive, textured look that also allows water to drain freely through the structure.
- Brick and block garden walling. For boundary walls, feature walls or more traditional retaining structures that match existing brickwork.
Our specialists will assess the height and load involved before recommending a wall type, since taller or heavily loaded walls need more robust foundations and drainage than a low garden feature wall.

Paths & Paving
Garden Paths and Paving Design Options
A well designed path or paved area ties different parts of a garden together and makes it genuinely usable, not just decorative.
- A choice of paving materials. From natural stone to block paving, depending on the style of your garden and property.
- Curved or straight path layouts. Designed to suit how the space is actually walked through and used.
- Defined edging. Keeping paths and paved areas neat and preventing surrounding beds or lawn from encroaching.
- Level and gradient management. Particularly important on sloped gardens where steps or graded paths may be needed.
We can talk through material and layout options during your survey, including how any new paving ties in with existing driveway or patio surfaces.

Landscaping Costs
How Much Does Landscaping Cost in Goffs Oak?
Hard landscaping costs vary more than almost any other service we offer, since a small path and a full retaining wall project involve very different amounts of material, labour and groundwork. Rather than give you a figure that would be meaningless without seeing your garden, we quote every project individually.
Costs are generally shaped by:
The scale and scope of the project. As a single path differs significantly from a full retaining wall or multi-feature garden.
The type of feature involved. Since retaining walls typically require more groundwork than paving or paths.
Ground conditions and existing levels. Particularly on sloped or uneven sites.
Materials chosen. As sleeper, gabion, brick and paving options all vary in cost.
Site access. As gardens with limited access can affect how materials and equipment are brought in.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need planning permission for a garden wall or retaining wall?
This depends largely on the height of the structure and its position relative to boundaries. Lower garden walls generally do not require permission, but taller retaining walls or those near a boundary may need it. We can advise on this during your survey.
How long does a typical hard landscaping project take?
This varies considerably depending on scope. A single garden path may take a day or two, while a retaining wall or larger multi-feature project can take significantly longer. We provide a realistic timescale once we understand the full scope of your project.
Can you combine landscaping work with a new driveway or patio?
Yes, many of our projects combine hard landscaping features with driveway or patio work, and planning these together often gives a more cohesive finish and can be more efficient than treating them as separate projects.
Is my garden suitable for a retaining wall if it's on a slope?
Sloped gardens are actually one of the most common reasons homeowners need a retaining wall, as it allows the space to be levelled or terraced into more usable areas. We assess ground conditions and slope during the survey to recommend the right wall type.
What should I expect during a hard landscaping consultation?
We will walk the garden with you, discuss how you currently use the space and what you would like to change, and address ground conditions, levels and access before talking through suitable options and next steps.
