Stonework

At Creating Eden we regularly use reclaimed stone to build walls and other hard landscaping features within a garden. Not only does using reclaimed stone allow another use for the stone but it is also unique in its shapes and sizes. Especially with older properties, the use of natural stone allows new features to blend seamlessly with the house or existing features within the garden. In addition to building new walls in stone, Creating Eden can repair fallen or damaged walls and repoint walls (with lime mortar if required) on a maintenance basis. When building professionally designed gardens, we are increasingly asked to face retaining walls or raised bed with other materials, such as Indian sandstone walling blocks, engineered facing stone panels or other materials, such as oak. You will see examples of these in some of the case study gardens.
