From Boring To Breathtaking: Epic Garden Transformation
Вставка

- This is a garden design by the talented Hannah Collins, she invited us to quote for the project after finalising the design.
Two of us started the rip out in September and it was just 2/3 of us for the first 2 weeks then we were joined by the rest of the team (5 of us) till the end of November then the last 3/4 weeks there was just 2/3 of us finishing off while the lads started a new job.
So, from start to finish it took 16 weeks. If it was the summer with longer days and less rain 🙄 and the full team on start to finish, it would of been comfortably done in 12 weeks.
The materials we used are as follows -
Porcelain - Marshalls Arrento Encore in Dune 600x600
Decking - Londonstone Designboard in Amber
Wall Cladding - Norstone Lynia in Basalt
Cube Cladding - Londonstone Designclad in Vintage Grey
Gravel - Stonewarehouse 20mm Ocean Blue
Pergola - Silva Timber - 90x90mm cedar
Water Blade - Oase
Plants - Glazebrook Nursery’s
Pavilion - Rase Outdoor Living
Lighting - AP Electrical

I don’t want to say you fellas make it look easy because that suggests anyone can do this. I don’t want to say you make it look hard because that suggests you guys aren’t on top of things . You guys show us that it looks like you have the skills the talent and the knowledge. This is not the first time I’ve left a comment on one of your videos and not the first time I’ve loved what I’m seeing.
It’s definitely not easy but we’ll always get there in the end 👍🏼👍🏼 thanks for watching and the support 👍🏼👍🏼
A craftsman in any trade makes a job look easy that's because there a craftsman, you cant buy knowledge its learnt over years
Sometimes a thumbs up doesn’t seem to be enough. This is stunning and it’s great to see a young lad in and amongst craftsmen. 👏👏👏
Many thanks, appreciated 🙏🏼
That’s my son 👍🏼 he’s learning the trade
Hats off to Hannah Collins for her amazing vision but respect to you guys for this incredible project in adverse weather conditions. 👏🏼
🙏🏼 thank you very much.
Best in the business them Brockstone reds. Unrivalled workmanship anywhere. Never seen anyone turn out the quality of work they do. Dirk ‘Kev’ Kuyt on the mixer, the mans a machine. And the Marauding midfield maestro Javier ‘Craig’ Masharano smashing the digger and the nail gun. What a crew! Of course led by the skipper. Loving this job boys.
Haha always look forward to your comments mate, made me smile that 👍🏼
All the best to you chief 👊🏼
Another project with wow factor. It's testament to the craftsmen that built it. Working through the bad weather must have been a test but the result is awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers! Yes it was a battle 😅
Thanks again!
Once again ,I can see why you guys are the best, truly amazing
Too kind 🙏🏼
Not gonna lie this has literally amazed me the quality of the workmanship and skill that has made this what it is I know who I will be using if I ever win the lotto to have a garden like this ,, literally stunning work !!!
Thank you so much amigo! I appreciate you watching and your kind words of encouragement 🙏🏼
Yet again it’s a massive thumbs up from this old Brickie. Wow your standard of work is first class. The epoxy resin grout to the edges on the raised plinth is something else. The devil is in the detail and you guys don’t miss a thing.
Thank you very much!
All the best to you sir
What’s better than quality ? I’m not sure of the word . Whatever it is it is , it applies to your team ! And it’s teamwork that makes these projects and these insights of how it’s done so superb….. when we all watch and be in awe of what we see ……
You must be one proud man !
Kind words - thank you.
It’s taken many years and hard work to build my team and secure these kind of projects
🙏🏼
Thanks for uploading. Great to see the power of good design and meticulous attention to detail in practice.
Glad you like it! Thank you mate
Well you deserve all the fantastic comments you get ,you are the best out there I'm sure.
Thank you very much! Appreciate it and yes I’m humbled
We look forward to your next adventure,every one better than the last, you and your crew do fantastic work, looking forward to your next adventure, regards from Ireland,😮😮😮

A pretty penny well spent. Absolutely stunning outcome. Well done lads. 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it thank you
WOW!!!! What an Awesome transformation. Great work guys 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks so much!
Very impressive. Looks like a good bunch of guys.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Your music choices are epic and your work ethic is incredible
Amazing to hear! Thank you so much
Phenomenal design and it looks like the construction team employed solid building techniques, but oddly enough the thing that impressed me the most was the incredible skills with the angle grinder in building that tiled island with the water feature.
Amazing to hear! Thank you so much
and there was me thinking the original garden looked alright..........until I saw the end, wow, that is a hell of a garden, congrats to all involved
Appreciated 😃✌🏼
What a fantastic garden, Matty.
well done lads.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Nice to see the extra effort going in to make it perfect when so many others would have cut corners. That homeowner will hopefully have many years to enjoy it all.
I hope so too! Thank you 🙏🏼
I think that's the nicest garden I've ever seen, amazing work.
Thank you so much
Holy crap! Next level craftsmanship right there. I thought i was good with a grinder until i saw them freehand miters!!!!! 😂 Amazing work, amazing channel 👏
Right on👊🏼 thanks man
Stunningly beautiful ❤ The crew are masters in their chosen fields.
Thanks so much
Just an absolute pleasure to watch this. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.
Cheers, thanks for watching and the support! 👍🏼
Fantastic work from you guys! You know your stuff!
Thanks so much! Such kind words 🙏🏼
Summer Spring Fall Winter doesn’t matter this is truly Amazing. Very inspiring
It really is! Thank you
Having watched the full feature i was presently surprised to see this pop up👍 i look forward to the black and white version and the directors cut edition with the extra 5 minutes 😂 outstanding work fellas once more 👍
That’s it now I’m afraid ☺️ new video in a few weeks 👍🏼
Cheers mark
Love it ! Very skilled and turned out fantastic !
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Just amazing talents and the hand cut mitres are just insane. I wouldn't like to even guess how much it all cost, but it was worth every penny. I'm looking forward to the next build
Ah Thank you very much! All the best 👍🏼👍🏼
Agreed - the back beveling of those tiles was phenomenal, as was notching the slot for the water feature. A pretty penny to build and a pretty penny to maintain I would expect, but gorgeous.
Ви найкращі.
Дякую вам за роботу.
So kind thank you
Sensational, love these shorter form videos 👌
Glad you like them! All action 🙌🏼
STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS!!!!

Ah thank you so much for the kind words of encouragement. I really appreciate the support you give us by watching and commenting on our videos. Thank you
Brilliant job again, love hearing the scouse accents been in Australia for years but still call Liverpool my home.
You can take the kid out of Liverpool but you can’t take Liverpool out the kid 🤜🤛
Big matty and the man dem making miracles AGAIN!
You know dis 😆👊🏼
Another amazing video lads ! It’s an absolute pleasure to watch the skill and craftsmanship of you guys it’s on another level. 👍👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Kind comments- thank you

Glad you like them! Top man
Right back at ya
Absolutely unreal as always guys!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I'm loving the music you put on the videos, keep up the good work 👍
Glad you like them! Great to hear
Another awesome job done. Can tell you used to be a raver! Love the music as always.
😂 I like my dance music yeah 🕺🏾
Thank you 🙏🏼
Possibly my favourite one to date pal. Hard to choose though 😊
One of mine too mate
Love your work it really inspires me as im startimg up my own business
Best of luck! And Thank you 🙏🏼
It would be good to see the customer’s reaction at the end of the build. Also a basic idea of cost would be handy for some of us to know, that quality of work doesn’t come cheap & must run into 10’s of thousands. Impressive work guys.
The customer sees it as it goes along so it’s not like a big reveal. Plus most don’t like to be on camera. The cost is between the client and I unfortunately
Thanks for watching and the comments 👍🏼
Just utter beauty 🫡
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Just amazing !
Thank so much
Stunning, simply stunning😮😊❤
Thank you! 😊
Definitely prefer the longer videos much more entertaining and educational ✌️
Cheers mate. I like to do both so people have the option. The shorter ones usually have a greater reach to non subscribers
A short one I did is on 1.1 million views currently
👍🏼
Brilliant
Cheers
Hi Matty mate ....I hope you and the family / team are good 👍🏻
Some people use the transformation far too easily ...but with your work it really is.
Shout out to Hannah too for the amazing design 🎉
That Basalt cladding looks amazing ...just looks so classy but fiddly to level each one !
Unlike how the wood posts separate the areas to the eye ...
It's 5 star hotel standard and then some !!
Be happy brother 🙏 Gary
Cheers Gary, always appreciate the support my friend 🙏🏼👍🏼
Hope you’re well mate
Thank you 🙏🏼
You guys are geniuses in the making. You are always fully booked! wished you had a team in London! :/
Maybe one day! Thank you very much
That looks amazing
Thanking you
American landscaping contractors need to learn from you guys
Haha cheers ☺️👍🏼👍🏼
Serene. Top quality
Big up
Amazing transformation
Glad you think so!
Hello Here from Holland.
What a nice job you make there man.
Like the video,s very much😀😀
Hello there! Thank you very much 👍🏼👍🏼
Looks fantastic 🤩 Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Like so often, too much building, too little garden, too much indoor stuff brought outside. But really nice patterns and colors, I like the white stripes on the ground, the basalt wall and the interchanging colors. Just hard to clean it all the time. Always imagine what a new garden will look like in 5, 10, 20 years!
Thanks
Stunning!
Thank you! Cheers!
Never thought of using epoxy with ceramic like that. Top quality detailing. Nice work, lads. P.S. I'm in the trade.
Works well on the mitres 👍🏼 thank you
Stunning! An outdoor kitchen would have been good.
Was in the original design but the client omitted it 👍🏼
Mint job lads
Appreciated
Sick that boys well done 👌🏻
Nice one amigo ✌🏼
Incredible matty .The cost of these projects you do Liverpool must be a rich place mate 😂.The design the materials the determination to crack on in winter and the skills you guys have always blows me away unbeatable stuff .if only we were as good mate 😂 love it 👍🧱🧱
Thanks Just! Kind words mate 🙏🏼 humbled.
We do get the opportunity to create some lovely spaces, but it’s not always been that way, it’s taken many years to build a reputation and relationships with designers.
Thanks for the support 🙏🏼
@Brockstonepavingpros spot on mate i can totally understand that .ive tried to find designers here cant find any is there an association they belong to matty 👍
Yes mate the SGD 👍🏼👍🏼
What does that stand for Matty ?👍
@@brickrightbuildinglandscaping society of garden designers 👍🏼

Thank you! 😄
Your workmanship is simply outstanding, love watching all the transformations you have done, any big plans for 2024?
Same dance this year 🕺🏾 thanks for the support 👍🏼
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
A few years ago I commissioned the construction of a large terrace made of a very similar material (thick, frost-resistant terracotta glazed in a matte finish with a delicate texture - supposedly anti-slip). I commissioned it, the terrace was built an I curse this idea every winter.
To this day, the balance of this terrace is: one knee treated surgically, one broken arm, three dislocated fingers. I'm not counting the bumps and bruises...
Although looking through the window from the living room it still looks nice... So what if no one dares to walk on it in the winter? An invisible layer of thin ice or a thin layer of snow (literally a few flakes!) is enough for the terrace to turn into a very dangerous trap
If something freezes with ice it’s gonna be slippy no matter what the texture.
This is skip resistant R11 and up to British Standards
@@Brockstonepavingpros Personally, I am very skeptical about the "miraculous" properties of any materials compliant with the R11 standard and British standards in Polish conditions. The Polish specificity is that for the lion's share of winter, the temperature of roads, pavements, terraces and similar surfaces rises clearly above zero degrees Celsius under the influence of the sun. When the sun stops directly operete, the temperature drops below zero degrees Celsius and any bit of moisture that does not have time to evaporate freezes. If the surface is porous or rough enough (cement slabs, granite paving stones, asphalt), nothing bad happens - the surface is not to become slippery. However, impermeable surfaces, especially glazed or polished stoneware, are asking for serious trouble.
I am not criticizing, I am only suggesting that you be extremely careful when using such materials. Because standards are standards and sometimes it will be the case that conditions similar to Polish ones will occur on the Islands and a visit to the hospital with an orthopedist will certain... Can you guarantee it never happens?
I wouldn't be talking smart if I hadn't checked things out thoroughly. There is a research center in Poland called the Building Technology Institute (Polish acronym ITB). There, not only was the mechanism of the phenomenon explained to me in detail, but it was also demonstrated in a climate chamber how such icing occurs.
I also learned three things: 1. in Poland, there is a strict ban on the use of glazed and polished surfaces in places designated for traffic routes, sidewalks, and even in places where it can be foreseen that someone (children?) may walk, 2. unfortunately, in Poland there is no regulation prohibiting the use of similar materials on private properties, 3. there is no effective way to prevent icing apart from an underground heating system - a terribly expensive and unprofitable solution.
I will add that from myself: all assurances from manufacturers about compliance with standards and having "miraculous" properties that they simply cannot have - such as resistance to icing, for example - are completely worthless.
I’m seriously considering throwing out the beautiful terracotta patio tiles and replacing them with classic granite cubes next summer. Because now I have a nice big terrace, but as if I didn't... Mistakes must be paid for. Since no irreversible accident has happened yet, and I don't want to tempt evil fate... I've had enough of the warning signals.
Fantastic work...👍.
Always wondered is Pep had a side hussle away from Man City...🤔.
You’re not the first to say that😆👍🏼 don’t think anyone’s said it on UA-cam before though 👍🏼
Good 👍 video guys
Glad you enjoyed it
precioso trabajo😍😍
Gracias 😃
Muito foda ver todo trabalho e cuidado que vcs tem quando fazem o trabalho.
Appreciated
good job
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow xx💝
Thank you ☺️
For anyone wondering, that louvre ceiling (if you get a 12x20 from Home Depot) costs around $3200. I wanted to buy one until I seen the price, being a woodworker, I'll make my own 😁
😅👍🏼
Pukka job, is that bamboo on back wall. Looks great
It’s all composite decking 👍🏼
Impressive work! 50-75k in materials and over quarter of million for the install? I want to see the house!
Can’t comment on that😅House is stunning 👍🏼
Beautiful job! My question is regarding the large tiled flooring. What type is it and isn't it super slick when wet?
It’s mentioned early in the video but it’s Marshalls Arrento Encore. Not slippery 👍🏼 up to British standards
What is that base holding the water for the Water Feature?????
Totally awesome work 😍😍😍😍
It’s a bespoke design by the garden designer, she had it fabricated
Great idea 💡
@@Brockstonepavingpros it sure was. I must agree 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Precision work. As someone from australia, I shake my head that people here don’t take pride in their work like these guys. Just one question though, don’t you have white ants over there?
Thank you very much!
White ants? No only black ones
Ha, no seriously in Australia, we have white ants that eat the timber if in contact with the ground. It looked like you were putting timber in contact with the ground, so hence my question. @@Brockstonepavingpros
@@JamesKnightSmith Termites?
@@BBirke1337 Close, but no they're called "White Ants" they eat timber in Australia if you have it in contact with the ground. From Google " Termites are social insects that build large nests in soil or wood and can occasionally cause damage to wooden structures. They are sometimes called 'white ants', however they belong to a completely different insect group (Order Isoptera) to true ants (Order Hymenoptera)."
Capability Brockstone says it all.
☺️👍🏼👍🏼
Please came to California 😊
Packing my bags as we speak ✈️ ☀️
i feel like im at an ibiza pool party
😂 🕺🏾
Great craftsmanship, great use of the different materials. I understand you can't disclose cost publicly, but would you be able to put this in a range? 0-20k, 20-50k or 50k+?
Thank you very much. Appreciated
Nowhere near those costs ⬆️ I’m afraid
👍👍👍
👍🏼👍🏼
That's a great build. What's the maintenance like on all those lights? How often are they malfunctioning and require adjusting/service?
Not sure on the electrical side sorry, I’d have to ask the spark! Not my field
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
Good job! What is the composition of the last layer under the tiles, is it cement and sand or some ready-made drainage mortar? What do you put on the tiles?
It’s sand and cement with a primer to ensure a bond 👍🏼
Thanks
Great transformation - What would a job like this cost….?
I can’t discuss that publicly I’m sorry
Thanks for watching
Do you use any software for planning this out or do you use pencil and paper?
Garden designer Hannah Collins created visuals and plans 👍🏼
Wow
Appreciated 👍🏼👍🏼 thank you 🙏🏼
Good job....shell mobility sight management app......
Ey?
Geez a job ,i can do that 😂
Ok yozza
Epic ! How much would this project cost ?
Sorry can’t disclose that publicly
Thank you 🙏🏼
Before: a green garden - after: a stone desert…
Thanks for your opinion, great to hear it from a different perspective 👍🏼😃 thanks for supporting the channel ✌🏼
Not everyone wants to tender to a garden
@@landysok90 then don’t buy one…
