How much does garden design cost in the UK?

Garden design costs in the UK depend on the size of your garden, the complexity of the scheme and whether you need design only or a full design-and-build service. A professional designer will typically begin with a consultation, followed by a concept plan and, where needed, detailed planting and construction drawings.

If you go on to have the design built, the landscaping itself is usually the larger part of the budget. Hard landscaping such as patios, driveways, fencing and garden rooms — along with ground preparation, waste removal and access — drives most of the final figure. The guide below shows indicative 2026 UK prices so you can set expectations before you start.

ProjectTypical UK cost
Initial design consultation£150 – £300
Concept design & planting plan (small garden)£500 – £1,500
Concept design & planting plan (large or complex garden)£1,500 – £3,000+
Small patio or path — design and build£2,000 – £5,000
Medium garden makeover — design and build£8,000 – £18,000
Full garden transformation — design and build£20,000 – £30,000+

Indicative 2026 UK prices for guidance only. Surrey and the South East typically sit at the upper end of each range, and final pricing depends on access, ground conditions and your chosen materials. Every estimate from our calculator is indicative until confirmed after a free site survey.

Rather than guessing from a national average, our estimator prices your actual project: choose the services you need, enter your measurements, and see an itemised low–high range in pounds — adjusted for your postcode, garden access and the materials you pick. It takes about two minutes, and there is no obligation to go further.
