Landscaping & External Works
Ensuring New-Build Gardens longevity
One of the commonest complaints of new-build house
buyers is the state of the little patch of ground destined to
become the garden.
By working a metre down in the soil using their well-proven
air-power machinery, Terrain Aeration Services can undo
long term damage of months in a few hours, leaving it free
draining and a pleasure to own.
It is fast, effective and even possible in the tightest spaces by
using slim line plant. This can access the smallest rear
gardens through a standard gate even after the fencing has
been installed.

Long Rake Spar’s Derbyshire Gold,
Goldpath and Scottish Boulders
Sustainable gardens are an increasingly important
aspect of urban development. This month Long Rake
Spar have helped bring sustainability to the forefront of
the landscaping community by supporting the Spiralling
Into Control garden at RHS Tatton.
The garden, which was designed by Simon Fagg and
built by Appleyard Landscape aimed to show visitors
that they can create a front garden that incorporates the
functionality of everyday life, alongside inspirational
planting and sustainable water management.
The project used Long Rake Spar’s Derbyshire Gold,
Goldpath and Scottish Boulders to create wildlife friendly
beds and a sunken rainwater garden which supports a variety
of habitats as well as acting as an effective drainage
point.
