Phil and the team transformed our sloping back garden into a proper sunken entertaining space. The porcelain terrace is flawless and the outdoor kitchen gets used at least twice a week — even in October. Communication was excellent throughout and the build ran exactly to the programme we were quoted.
Gardens that feel inevitable.
Premium patios, driveways, decking, verandas, outdoor kitchens and garden rooms — designed, built and guaranteed by our employed Cheshire team.
We design and build outdoor spaces that feel as natural as the homes they belong to.
Director-led and employed end-to-end, Urban Garden Projects has been transforming private and commercial gardens across Cheshire for over fifteen years. We don't subcontract the things that matter.
Every project begins with a conversation on site, and finishes with a garden that carries our name. Patios that sit flat twenty years on. Verandas that change how a family uses a house. Driveways that still look crisp after a decade of Cheshire weather.

Our clients, in their own words.
Every review below is pulled live from our Google Business Profile — no hand-picking.
Replaced a tired deck with a large-format porcelain terrace and a slatted Iroko screen. The finish is remarkable — clean lines, immaculate jointing and a thoughtful approach to lighting. Urban's team are proper craftsmen, not landscapers who'll have a go at stonework.
The veranda they installed over our Yorkstone terrace has genuinely added a room to our house. The louvred roof with heating and lighting means we're outside from March onwards. Quality hardware, proper installation, and the whole thing was wrapped up in a week on site.
Had a resin-bound driveway laid at our place in Wilmslow last spring. Survived the winter without a mark and still looks as crisp as the day it was finished. Pricing was fair, communication was clear, and the site was left spotless every evening.
Urban built a cedar-clad garden office for my husband — insulated, triple-glazed, the lot. It's warm in January and cool in July, and the build quality is streets ahead of the prefab kits we'd been looking at. Planning advice was spot-on too.
