Landscaping In Winter

While most people in the country spend a lot of time indoors during winter, looking out the window and wondering when spring will come for them to improve their gardens, we at M.J. Ryall strongly believe that winter is the perfect time to carry out a number of exciting landscape improvements.

Here are some of the main reasons why winter is the best time to landscape your garden.

1. It’s Actually The Best Time Of The Year

Improving your garden during the spring and summer months feels like the best time to improve your outdoor spaces but it’s going to cause you and your neighbours the most inconvenience.

Having machinery, bulk bags of aggregates, timber and all the labour arriving at your property isn’t always the easiest task to organise.

You’ve got to make sure you’ve got adequate parking, the space to store any materials and you’ve got to lose any outdoor space until the work is completed.

Having your landscaping work completed in the winter allows you and your neighbours to enjoy any outdoor gatherings in the warmer months without hearing pneumatic drills and having dust sprayed into the air.

2. More Availability

Have you ever tried booking a landscaper during the spring and summer months? It’s almost impossible to get a well-reviewed one.

After the cold and frosty winter months, everyone dreams of spending time outdoors again and starts researching what’s fashionable and practical for their valuable outdoor spaces.

However, if you plan in advance you can get the landscaper you want and you can get your dream garden ready to show off to your friends and family in the warmer months.

3. Hard Landscaping In Winter

If you’re looking to transform your outdoor space, it’s probably going to involve some sort of excavation work.

If you’re looking for a new patio, decking, fencing or even turf you’re going to need to dig up your garden in one way or another.

As the months cool down during the autumn and winter, we tend to get more rain which makes the ground softer and more malleable to work with.

This allows for a quicker, easier and most importantly better job.

4. The Garden is Dormant

Since your garden is not being used frequently during winter, you should consider hard landscaping. To give your garden an attractive appearance, we plan and install water features, patios, fences, irrigation systems, fireplaces, rockery stones, and garden lighting systems.

We work closely with a number of reputable suppliers such as Grange Fencing, Long Rake Spar, Q Lawn, and Abor Forest to ensure that we provide you with high-quality landscape supplies that you can always rely on.
