How much does it cost to have a garden designed and built?
The cost of garden construction is an investment in years of outdoor enjoyment. Naturally, you first want to know: what does it cost to have a garden built? This depends on many factors, including the size of your garden, the materials you choose, the complexity of the design, and the level of maintenance you desire.
Garden construction costs
Before any garden can be built, it is important to have a garden design created. Once the design is finalized and the areas for each part of the garden are clear, construction can begin. The largest portion of the financial investment goes into the actual construction of the garden.
But what determines the cost of building a garden per square meter?
- Size of the garden
- Type and quality of materials (tiles, wood, lighting)
- Complexity (level differences, ponds, custom elements)
- Accessibility of the location

What budget should I consider for my garden?
The cost of a garden depends largely on the level of construction, the materials chosen, and any technical features. For smaller projects, our average costs are between €30,000 and €50,000. A significant part of the expenses goes toward work that isn’t immediately visible but is essential for a durable, high-quality garden. This includes groundwork such as raising or excavating the garden, installing a stable foundation, and technical constructions that ensure comfort, quality, and long-lasting performance. No shortcuts or quick fixes—just careful craftsmanship that keeps your garden beautiful for years to come.
Reducing garden costs without compromising on quality
You can lower garden costs by adjusting the balance between greenery and hardscape; plants and grass are usually less expensive than tiles or decorative paving. It also helps to implement the garden in phases, starting with the most important elements, and to use standard-sized components for paving, fencing, or garden furniture. This approach spreads the investment, keeps the process manageable, and still ensures a high-end, luxurious appearance. That way, your garden remains sustainable, financially manageable, functional, and visually appealing.
A high-quality garden adds value to your home and enhances your living experience.
