In 2008 I graduated from the Garden Design School in Cobham as part of a career change. Shortly after graduation I successfully achieved a City and Guilds qualification in weeds, pests and diseases which has been invaluable over the years and benefitted many clients.
I am very passionate about garden design and regularly attend continuing professional courses and talks which helps me to keep abreast of the latest designs and developments in my field.This helps me enhance my skills and create exciting yet functional garden designs. Inspiration is gained from images both in magazines, books, social media and visiting garden shows.

The garden can often be a space where home owners don't know where to start with making the space functional and attractive. Unlike the inside of the house which is static, the outside space changes throughout the year and needs regular garden maintenance. We help you to create a garden to meet your specific needs.
Inge was a Godsend. She came up with all sorts of ideas to incorporate our living space and garden into one space which was what I was looking for. She was integral to the building work as she created a detailed landscaping plan for them to build retaining walls, steps, decking area etc.
She thought to suggest a side "secret" gate from our driveway direct into our garden as this reduced the walking time to the general "visitors" entrance which was essential in hindsight as with 2 kids, a pram and shopping it would have been a nightmare without it.She listened to my (very specific) requirements but was able to recommend alternatives as well in terms of plant selection that were more suitable.

All gardens require a survey before any design work can commence. This ensures that the garden is drawn to scale and minimises errors at the construction stage. If the garden is too large or complex, a professional surveyor will be recommended. An individualised, detailed outline plan of the design is drawn using the survey information.
You may be pleased with the existing design of your garden, but not with the types of plants. A planting plan without the need for a full design service may be a cost effective solution. Planting plans are designed to create a harmonious design which meets the needs and planting skill of the client.

I have used Berrie Garden Design and Maintenance for some time now, and have always been impressed with Inge and her staff. Inge's knowledge of plants is second to none, and by following her advice, I have saved so much money, and not wasted time with the wrong plants. I will continue to use her, and never have any hesitation in recommending her to friends

Inge has transformed our garden from a boring garden of green shrubs into a beautiful garden full of varied shapes, colours and flowers. She started the process by spending time with me, showing me lots of different plants to identify the ones that I loved and she built a plan from there. I can't recommend her highly enough.
