If you’re in Northstowe, from Phase 1 and Phase 2 to Phase 3A, Phase 3B or Inholm, your garden is covered. Tell us its size, how you want to use it and what the ground does in winter. We schedule a survey at your home before the job is quoted. Phase 1 homes have different layouts, so the survey starts with the space you have rather than a fixed plan. If you’re in a higher-density Phase 2 home, less private outdoor space makes that layout decision more important. Northstowe’s clay and sandy or gravelly ground can drain differently, so the survey checks soil type, levels and drainage before quoting. If a patio or fence is on your list, you can see its cost separately: patio, paths, turf, fencing, drainage and planting each have their own line item. Worried that preparation will add to the cost later? The scope includes sub-base, topsoil, drainage and levelling, with each stage broken down before you agree to the work. ## Questions we get in Northstowe ### Does the survey account for different ground conditions in Northstowe? Yes. Clay in some parts drains slowly, while other parts have sandy or gravelly ground. The survey checks soil type, levels and drainage before the job is quoted. ### Can the plan account for less outdoor space in Phase 2? Yes. Some higher-density Phase 2 homes have less private outdoor space. The survey starts with your garden’s size and how you want to use it. ### What other areas do you cover?
