Bespoke garden transformations from concept to completion. We design and build beautiful, functional outdoor spaces tailored to your lifestyle in Preston, Leyland and the wider North West.
Full garden landscaping is our core service. We take tired, unused or poorly planned outdoor spaces and turn them into gardens you actually use — with clear zones for seating, play, planting and access. Work typically includes 3D visualisation so you can approve the look before we break ground, hard landscaping (patios, paths, walls, steps), soft landscaping (planting, turf or artificial grass), drainage where needed, lighting and garden structures. One accountable local team handles design through to handover, with written guarantees on workmanship. We keep the site tidy while we build — not a skip on the drive for weeks and a mess at the fence. Ideal for full redesigns, new-build plots and multi-level gardens across Preston and Lancashire.
The same clear process for every service.

Yes. A large share of our enquiries are exactly this: new-build turf that needs a real garden, or a rear garden left unfinished after an extension or conservatory.
Typical scope includes a patio or path around the new build, levels and drainage (new-build lawns are often boggy), borders or raised planters, fencing, a shed or pergola base, and a usable lawn. We can design from a blank turf rectangle or work around what is already there.
Yes. Professional 3D visualisations are part of our full garden landscaping service, along with marked-up plans. You see the layout, materials and levels before anything is built, and the same drawings are what the team work from on site.
Smaller standalone jobs (a single drain, a short fence, a small paving patch) are usually quoted from photos and measurements rather than a full 3D pack.
Request a free online estimate with photos and a brief description of the garden — turnaround is usually 1–2 business days. If it is a good fit we follow up with a site visit — some visits are charged depending on area and job size, which we confirm before booking. A 25% deposit secures the booking slot once you accept.
Timelines depend on size, weather and materials, but many full redesigns run over several weeks on site after design approval. We are often booked 2–3 months ahead in peak season, so early estimates help lock a realistic start date.

“We recently had our front garden done and back garden fully transformed by acorn and we couldn’t be happier. From start to finish the team were amazing. No ask/change to design was too big or too small.”
“I’m absolutely blown away with my new patio Acorn installed at the back of my garden. From start to finish, the company was a pleasure to deal with. They provided visual designs and happily made several adjustments.”
“Thank you Acorn for transforming our back garden. You’ve done a fantastic job. There used to be a rockery full of weeds, a tatty lawn and ugly uneven flags… Now we have a tidy slate gravel area, artificial grass and porcelain flags.”

Transform an unusable sloped lawn into beautiful, functional terraced garden spaces using sleeper retaining walls.

Two sleepers on a bank look simple until the face starts to lean. How high a timber wall can go on a Lancashire slope, what to put behind it, and when the bank needs a proper terrace.

Why new build gardens often suffer from poor drainage and how proper landscaping from the ground up solves these issues for good.
