English Country Gardens is a landscape construction and planting company serving Northern Virginia. It was founded by an Englishman, Peter Field. We offer landscape consultations, designs and estimates at your home and along with that, we can install everything we design. Whether you prefer a quiet spot to relax on your patio, a cooling pergola in the heat of Summer, a serene water feature, or a cozy, warming fireplace in the Fall.
Or maybe its a meandering walkway, seat walls to gather with friends, or just to enjoy the fragrance and colour of your favourite plants, we can design and install a garden for all seasons, for years to come.

Services
Our landscape foremen and crews have many years of experience in all aspects of landscape construction and plant installation/maintenance. Without doubt, they are some of the most courteous and detail-oriented individuals you will find. They understand the need for quality service without compromise.
In order to help you before your consultation, you may want to give some though to the following questions. Not to worry, these questions are just a guideline to get you thinking, as your designer will give you their professional ideas and material suggestions, point out things to consider, and offer feedback on your thoughts.
The estimate will be included in the email and will show you the exact cost to install the entire project or will be broken down to show costs for each section or phase, if that is something you discussed with the designer at the consultation. It is not uncommon for our clients to have their projects installed in phases over several Seasons as their budget allows.
With all the pertinent information gathered from your consultation, the designer will begin taking measurements, grade notations, and photographs of your site to transfer to a design layout. On completing the design, your designer will scan and email it to you as an attachment. The design is a to-scale drawing and will show specifications of materials to be used for all of the construction elements, such as a full color cut flagstone patio on stonedust with a Bradstone cobble edge, or a Nicolok adobe blend wall with colonial stone inserts.

This is an awesome landscaping company. I called, and Peter came out right away to make an assessment of my property. I really didn't know what I wanted and told him that I wanted something relaxing with pond rocks, plants that stay strong under trees / shade, a patio, and a 12' x 14' gravel landing spot for a new gazebo. Within a couple of days, Peter provided a beautiful design and proposal that included all the labor and materials.
I didn't change one thing! I just signed on the dotted line. The project was scheduled on the calendar, and the team was so awesome and hardworking that I found myself giving each crew member $20 tips every other day. They were meticulous and paid attention to fine details. One of the crew members suggested that I enlarge the patio, and Peter quickly shifted and approved the additional work for his team.
Every spot that my grass was worn out due to the project traffic was replaced with sod and seeded. I endorse this small business wholeheartedly! Jackie Robinson-Burnette Army Wife & Retired Federal Senior Executive
