Thank you Bob for the photos of your really attractive garden pond. There is something very pleasing and gentle about using upright landscaping poles to create the curved, flowing surround of a pool of water. The red brick and grey slate compliment perfectly the natural finish of the round timbers, and produce a wonderful garden feature.

We are always thrilled to see DIY projects, especially those that involve building exciting play areas for children. Your swing perfectly incorporates the huge tree at the bottom of your garden and fits in beautifully. A wonderful creation that will be enjoyed for years!

An astonishing pond project brim full of adventurous imagination and admirable determination. All credit to Billy for undertaking such a massive railway sleeper design that will age spectacularly in the coming years. Simply amazing and a unique landscaping creation to be proud of!

Great to see pictures of how an eye-catching collection of raised beds has been created in a front garden and planted with roses. It's not surprising that Richard needed help with lifting the tropical hardwood railway sleepers into place. Not only are they heavy but also pretty tough to screw into, as he discovered!

Yes, that's what our generous customers have donated to the DEC's Ukraine Humanitarian Fund, through their purchase of Ukrainian oak railway sleepers. At the same time they are also supporting an endangered family sawmill in Ukraine that has really struggled during the war, and has had to close several times due to its proximity to Kiev and the Belarus border. Frightening times, but also one where support and generosity shines through. Thanks to you all.

It feels particularly satisfying to see the evolution of a landscaping project. One moment there is a pack of weathered reclaimed railway sleepers sitting patiently on a gravel driveway. The next these have been transformed into dramatic lines of raised beds nestling against the attractive red brickwork of the driveway boundary. These generous formal planters will soon burst into life with flowers and shrubs and provide an eye catching show of colour.

A superbly designed project that has been impressively constructed within the hospital grounds. The oak railway sleepers form mesmerising curved walls that flow around the garden as though they had a life of their own, creating an eye-catching plaque wall and a beautiful tribute to those remembered.

A stunning railway sleeper landscaping creation reminiscent of the grandeur of a Roman Amphitheatre with the stage provided by the patio. No doubt there will be some wonderful summer events taking place, but hopefully without the blood of gladiatorial combat! Your other railway projects are pretty impressive too!
