Opening the roll

What a set of sheets holds.

Paper you can hand to a carpenter, a landscaper, or your own two hands.

  3. CThe detailsFootings, wire heights, edging and base, drawn large enough to build from.
  4. DThe material listPosts, rails, wire, gravel and vines, with counts, so the lumberyard quote nearly writes itself.

Book a walk-through

Before the walk-through

What to have in your pocket.

Nothing fancy. A few facts about the ground we will be standing on.

  1. The length of the fenceA rough pace-out is fine. We bring the tape to settle it.
  2. Which way it facesSouth and west walls are a vine’s favourite seat.
  3. What is already thereA pear tree, a drain, a gas meter. Tell us what cannot move.
  4. The fruit you are hoping forJelly, juice, the small press, or only shade to sit under.
  5. A photograph or twoFrom the back door, looking out. It helps us arrive already knowing.

On the invoice

Plain answers about the price.

Anything left over, ring us.

When do I pay?

You receive one invoice by email for the package. There is no cart and no subscription. Ring or write and we will tell you how the invoice is timed.

Are plants and lumber included?

No. The fee covers the drawings, the planting layout and the material list. What you buy from the nursery or lumberyard is your own account.

Can I start small and add on?

Yes. Many yards begin with a Path Sketch and grow into rows. The sheets are drawn to join, so nothing is thrown away.

What if my yard is bigger than thirty vines?

Tell us the size. We will quote it plainly, in writing, before any pencil moves.

Do you work in winter?

Winter is the drawing season. A walk-through booked now is on paper well before planting in April.

Winter is for drawing

Pick a sheet. Bring us the yard.

Tell us the fence and the vine. We write back within a working day.
