Independent Project Support for Landscape Contractors
As landscape projects increase in size or complexity, the risks increase with them.
I provide independent, remote project support for landscape contractors delivering larger or more complex garden and landscape construction projects — helping you plan properly, manage risk, and avoid the issues that erode margin, programme, or client confidence.
This is practical, delivery-focused support, not consultancy and not day-to-day project management.
How I support contractors
Independent, proportionate support — when it matters most
I work alongside landscape contractors to provide experienced input at key points in a project, including:
Project setup and early planning
Programme, phasing, and sequencing review
Identification of delivery risk
Health & safety considerations
Change control and client expectation management
Independent problem-solving during delivery
Support is remote, and focused on decision-making, not interference.
Typical areas of support
Sense-checking programmes and phasing
Reviewing scope clarity and assumptions
Identifying construction and logistical risk
Highlighting health & safety implications
Supporting difficult decisions or changes
Providing an independent perspective when challenges arise
You remain fully in control of the project and client relationship.
How contractors use this service
Contractors typically engage on:
A one-off project setup review
Ad-hoc advisory sessions during delivery
Quiet support when a project feels “bigger than usual”
Independent input where risk or complexity is increasing
There are no long-term commitments and no disruption to how you operate.
Why this works for contractors
Professional project management expertise
Direct experience of landscape and construction delivery
A clear understanding of commercial pressure on contractors

The focus is always on realistic delivery.
How the process works
