[@Luke.Derrick38]

The b-roll did not dissapoint 😂😍 amazing job guys, and well done for getting your hands dirty! Even if you didn't need to dig up half the garden Fab 😂

[@fabandell]

Thank you! That was actually all on fabs iPhone 12 😂 omg we are fine with digging for a LONG time

[@loubeddoe4086]

Garden looks great guys... really good job.. we did our garden and added decking last summer and installed solar powered lights everywhere... both string lights and security lights.. they're really good to be fair and cost nothing to run... might be worth a look... 👍...

[@fabandell]

Where did you get your solar security lights from? We did see some in the range and wondered how good they were. But we defo want to run electricity down to the decking for lighting 🙌🏻

[@loubeddoe4086]

@@fabandell I got one from B and M Bargains and some from Amazon... they're never going to be as strong as electric ones.... but they come on when someone goes near them and are brighter than you'd think... our garden is very long and so have them at the bottom and one down the side entry...I just Goggled solar powered security lights...👍

[@kan-3750]

Looks so professional, you’ve done an amazing job👏🏽

[@fabandell]

Love it!! 😂 yes, send us a video

[@ksmith3997]

Very Clean 👌🏻 and makes it look loads bigger 👍🏻 On the flowers (I learned the hard way💰) look for anything that says “hardy” in the description, basically means hard to kill weather/soil/water wise.

[@fabandell]

Now THIS is the tips we needed 🤣 thanks Gareth!

[@Cam-yv8ue]

I have just introduced my girlfriend to your videos and she loves them! can't wait for the next vid and watch it together!

Very nice garden

[@Rossybergg]

Happy 10k 🎉🎉well down guys keep up the amazing work! Your house videos have been 🔥🔥Got lots of inspo and advice from them for moving into our first home home!

[@fabandell]

Thanks Ross! So happy that you’ve found them useful 🙌🏻

[@juliebrooke6099]

It looks great. It might be worth putting a water proof barrier between the base of your decking and the soil in the flower beds because it would be a huge hassle to replace the wood if it starts to rot.

[@fabandell]

There is no base, only front and side. Maybe I read that wrong! The wood is tanalised, so it should last for years before it rots

[@kristinesharp6286]

After you pull the flower out of the flat you are supposed to loosen the root before putting them in the ground. It’s a common mistake.

[@-Chunk]

Looks brilliant. Well done. What are the dimensions of your garden?

[@heatherboardman7004]

It looks like a new build. You could have negotiated with the builders to not have put grass or the shed in. Also it looks like there is a hedgehog highway which you may have blocked up at the rear of the pergola. Apart from that very nice

[@chelseyjones6833]

Ahh it looks amazing guys!! Well done 💗

[@randomstoragespace]

Helpful video, thanks

[@janetosborne4057]

Wow you have worked so hard and it looks amazing ....love the astro turf! my lawn is such a bloody hassle mowing and maintaining it .well done guys x

[@JamesTHEKOIwhisperer123]

Very cool video and great work I am in the same boat atm but building a pond in the garden as well lol 😂

[@thefrontbackside]

You did a great job in the garden. Don't forgot to buy covers for the table and sofa for winter. Might be an idea to get camera for the back just in case

[@fabandell]

Thank you! Oh don’t worry, we have sorted a camera out 😁

Are you allowed to have Astro turf? Are you allowed to be without a shed?

Looks amazing but if the top of the pergola was closed it would of been a cosy little corner

Thank you! The main reason we wanted that space was to sit out in the sun :) maybe we will cover it in winter!
