Eaves Green - Developer

Taylor Wimpey commercial managers wanted to show how sustainable features could be utilised in their gardens, we used recycled drain pipes to create wall planters, recycled building materials in the Gabion Seats and Corkeen our carbon Negative Surface in a reception seating area. We also included a hedgehog house, minibeast habitat, wildflower area and of course bee friendly planting for the bees of Manchester.

We installed all of the hard and soft landscaping, planting, trees, natural turf, pergolas, seating and resin bound gravel area. We now maintain the area and make sure it always looks pristine for Taylor Wimpey and their perspective clients.

Using Rubbasmart wetpour granules we followed this bespoke design, the installation was completed ensuring the colours stand the test of time providing all the children on this site with an imaginative and safe Play Area set in a Housing Development.

Hyrbid Grass Slope case study for school at Haworth

Haworth School - Education

Haworth Primary School school had a muddy slope which needed fixing with a surface that could be used all year round. We used Hybrid Grass, a blend of synthetic and natural grass. This removes a lot of the mud problems the school used to have.

The school liked the Hybrid Grass so much that they had even more installed!
