From beginning to end Loz was professional and worked diligently towards the agreed design, throughout the work he ensured we were happy with every stage and kept us informed. With an excellent work standard and completion of the work in the time specified I would not hesitate to use him again.

Laurence has created a really wonderful garden for us. He is knowledgeable, professional and gets on with the job when he says he will.
Elaine and Gary, Wythall Jan 2021
When we moved into our current home, about 13 years ago, the large garden had been more or less neglected for many years and we really didn't know where or how to start with it. Loz listened to the things that were important to us, (e.g. attracting more wildlife to the garden), and responded with a design that balanced the more formal, productive and natural areas, as well as a creating strong overall structure that linked them together.
In the years since the garden was completed, we've found maintaining it manageable and enjoyable. We now have a well-established orchard, with native hedgerows, vegetable beds, and a good sized lawn for relaxing and entertaining. The garden design still looks fresh and is getting better every year, as trees and hedgerows mature.
Gail Ariga, Solihull March 2021
We were very pleased with the design plans that Laurence drew up for our garden. He listened to our thoughts and had lots of ideas and advice -- especially about the proportions of the garden. He drew up plans for a patio that beautifully complements the house and helped us choose an installer.
Nigel Hobson, Tanworth in Arden Dec 2020
We had our garden made over by Laurence. He was helpful and courteous at all times, he paid attention to what we wanted and came in at a very reasonable budget. We would have no hesitation in recommending his work.
Glyn Pitchford, Solihull Nov 2019
In 2010 we had just finished an extension at the rear of our house which took up part of the existing patio and garden. Our builder recommended using Laurence to design the patio as he had used him before in other such situations. Laurence listened to our brief, budget likes and needs and produced a beautiful, functional design that enhanced the house and garden. I would not hesitate in recommending Laurence to any prospective clients.
Brian Olds, Director Tudor Developments 2008
We have been delighted with the continued support of Laurence via Phoenix Breakwell Garden Designs. Laurence is a pleasure to employ - always reliable, punctual, committed and determined to our landscaping requirements.
K. Martin, Hall Green 2021
Thank you for creating my back garden out of the mess that was here before. Even though it's your design, I still feel like it's my garden as you turned by suggestions into reality, while adding your own ideas. I would have no hesitation recommending you to my friends and family.
Martin & Karen B, Dorridge 2018
We have known Laurence for over 15 years, and when we moved to our current house we felt Laurence was the only choice for our garden design. He is creative, but sympathetic to the history and look & feel of the existing planting. He created wonderful light, colour, contours and space and we are delighted with the results. It is really a beautiful garden, in no small part thanks to Laurence's thoughtful design and faithful implementation.
Mark Sanford, Warwick 2019

I would not hesitate in using him again.
