In addition to our garden design and construction services, Perfect Garden also provide a landscape planning service for new developments, both domestic and commercial, and also replacement dwellings, to ensure local authority planning permission conditions are satisfied.
Included in this service is a full set of plans to submit for planning approval, along with detailed specification documents with all the relevant British Standard codes of practice for landscape works.

This project was a replacement dwelling set high on a hillside overlooking the Fylde coast and beyond.
The local authority planning department requested that a landscape infrastructure scheme was designed, approved and implemented before any construction work could take place.
This was to be 80% native species and a number of new trees to compensate for the removal of existing trees as part of the recommendations contained in the arboricultural report.
There was also a requirement to provide an area of new planting to screen the new dwelling from an existing property to the western boundary.

This project was a new build development on the site of an old car park.
Very specific and stringent conditions were attached to this planning application by the local authority, including screen planting to the eastern boundary, a new species rich native hedgerow and trees to the western boundary, low growing shrubs within the development to comply with sight line regulations and bulb planting to add seasonal interest.
The first plan shows the general landscape layout, the second shows the planting plan.

The planning authority requested details of all hard and soft landscaping proposals along with tree protection methods for the existing trees and hedgerow.
Conditions stated that there must be screen planting to the east of the proposed new entrance, and the frontage planting scheme was to compliment and further enhance the existing street scene. There was also a requirement that the frontage planting be under 1m in height when mature, to comply with sight line regulations.
