GARDEN landscaping business, Living Gardens, based in Tottington, has won the ‘Best Contemporary Patio Transformation’ accolade in the national 2016 Bradstone Assured Awards.

The annual awards recognise landscapers who demonstrate excellent levels of workmanship, design expertise and customer service with categories including the prestigious Installer of the Year, Best Garden Transformation and Best Driveway Transformation.

Following a raft of entry nominations at the end of last year from landscapers and clients across the UK, an expert judging panel, including TV gardener, David Domoney, and Professional Builder magazine editor, Terry Smith, selected worthy winners from each category.

Living Garden’s director, Monty Richardson, was presented the award by host and TV personality, David Domoney, and Bradstone’s commercial director, Toby Stuart-Jervis, surrounded by over 100 landscaping professionals at a glitzy awards ceremony at The Manor Hotel Meriden on Friday 22nd January.

Monty Richardson, director of Living Gardens, said: “We’re absolutely thrilled that our hard work has been recognised by Bradstone, and to have it showcased amongst so many of our peers at an awards ceremony was a really proud moment. Our aim is to deliver the best work using the best products every time – and to win this award is the icing on the cake!”

Toby Stuart-Jervis, commercial director for Bradstone, comments: “We were delighted to present Living Gardens with a Bradstone Assured award for their outstanding work in garden landscaping. The entry – redesigning a homeowner’s garden in Lancashire – stood out because of the clever use of space, working with the existing difficult levels to extend the visuals of the garden.

“A member of the Bradstone Assured scheme since October 2011, Living Gardens is a fantastic ambassador for Bradstone, creating unique outdoor spaces that homeowners can really enjoy. We wish them every success as they continue to develop their business with the full support of Bradstone Assured.”
