Landscape Garden Design Project in Fairfield, Stockton-on-Tees
A Complete Garden Design and Landscaping Project in Fairfield
Green Onion Landscaping designed and installed this bespoke garden design project in Fairfield, Stockton-on-Tees, creating a practical family garden with raised decking, sandstone paving, sleeper beds, turfing, fencing, a standalone water feature and a permeable block paved driveway.
This portfolio post shows how thoughtful landscape garden design can bring together hard landscaping, soft landscaping, patio areas, decking, garden storage, lawn installation, planting, fencing and driveway installation to create an outdoor space that works well every day.
For similar projects, you may also find our patios and paving services, decking installation services and soft landscaping and planting services useful.
Raised Decking with Built-In Garden Storage
The garden was redesigned to make better use of the available space, with a raised timber decking area providing a practical seating area overlooking the garden. The deck included steps, balustrade rails and useful hidden storage beneath.
Built-in garden storage is a clever way to keep cushions, garden pots, children’s toys and seasonal items tucked away while still being easy to access.

Sandstone Paving, Sleeper Beds and Lawn Installation
The hard landscaping included sandstone patio areas for outdoor dining and relaxing, together with raised railway sleeper beds for growing vegetables and seasonal planting.
A new turfed lawn was also laid as part of the garden transformation. The lawn was shaped with soft curved edges and finished with a cobbled mowing strip to make maintenance easier and give the garden a neat, finished appearance.

Standalone Water Feature with Planting and Slate Detail
A large standalone granite water feature was installed in one corner of the garden. Purple slate was used around the base to add texture and contrast, while lavender planting softened the area and added seasonal scent.
Water features can be a lovely addition to a landscaped garden, especially when they are positioned carefully within a patio, seating area or planted border.

Brickwork, Closeboard Fencing and Garden Gates
The garden boundaries were improved with brickwork, closeboard fencing and timber garden gates. Closeboard fencing is a strong and practical choice for domestic gardens, helping to improve privacy, security and shelter.
Fencing can also be included as part of a wider garden design so the boundaries, patio, lawn, planting and seating areas all work together.

Permeable Block Paved Driveway Installation
As part of the wider project, a permeable block paved driveway was also installed. Permeable block paving allows rainwater to drain more naturally through the surface, helping to reduce standing water and surface water problems when installed correctly.
This improved the front of the property while also making the entrance more practical for everyday use.
