Building your perfect outdoor space should be an enjoyable experience and with the right professionals, this is what we focus on.

Amazing results, and we now have the kind of garden we've always dreamed of. Delivered by a thoughtful, professional team - a team that listened to what we wanted and went out of their way to bring our hopes and expectations to fruition. Couldn't recommend Astek more highly. A great job well done.

They say that small gardens pose some of the biggest problems, well Astek met the task with a professional and knowledgeable design. From the outset they were committed to giving us the best outcome on a tight budget. As work progressed positive advice and suggestions were proffered from John which ensured we ended up with a garden we are very pleased with. Top class work.

Great company from start to finish. Thorough, attentive and patient.
We had several quotes for the project and we didn't choose Astek because they were the cheapest, we chose Astek because we believed they could deliver exactly what we asked.
They listened and they understood what we wanted. They added ideas and were flexible throughout.
We were really specific about some parts and nothing was ever too much
The whole team from start to finish were brilliant. Sam & Dan were excellent every day and the quality of work is excellent. We will have you back for our next project!

With the sun shining and the planting in full bloom we are now able to enjoy the fabulous new terrace garden created for us over the dark winter months. This was a tricky job and the Astek team had to dig deep to build a solid retaining barrier between the rear of our garden and the adjoining railway line. We are delighted with the outcome as we relax under the pergola in the new seating area enjoying the late evening sun. Everything was delivered to the highest standard with unexpected problems treated as challenges to be overcome and all within the original plan and quotation. Thanks to everybody

I recently had a bespoke brick water feature built and I can only say it is marvellous. The quality of work is outstanding, and John , the creator of this wonder , working with only my roughly drawn suggestion , was a miracle worker! SO professional and tidy too! In the recent freezing weather it continued to flow while creating the most amazing ice patterns. It will be the centrepiece of my refuge away from the worries of the world in the months to come. Well done Astek and thank you so much.

We met Richard in March 2019 following a recommendation, as we were looking to construct an outdoor kitchen area within our garden and wanted this to feel part of the rest of the garden.
Richard worked closely with us creating a plan for the whole garden that incorporated the kitchen, and everything else we had asked for and provided a detailed quotation for all the elements within the design.
We booked Astek and work started in September 2019. Although we added further elements along the way, which were costed for approval, the work took six months, and we couldn’t be happier with the results

We had our garden landscaped by Astek last year and we currently use them for ongoing garden maintenance.
The work last year involved laying a new patio and landscaping the rest of the garden. We were given a professional design that considered our requirements of what we were after. The work was carried out to their own extremely high standards and was finished in time for us to enjoy the benefits of it last summer. Our garden has been transformed into an area of our home that we love and can only thank everyone at Astek who made this happen. There was a bit of a wait to get the work done, which

It was an enjoyable experience working with this company from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble from the design to the end result.
Jamie and Eric worked really hard on the project, and John supported the team along the way.
We were consulted all the way through the construction.
The finished garden looks amazing and exactley how Denise my wife, pictured it her mind so we can't wait for the summer next year to be able to enjoy our new seating area. Thank you so much guys, we are so very happy with this and will recommend you to everyone.
