A flexible lawn
Lawn is simple, adaptable and cost effective. It can create play space, pet space and visual openness, provided the levels and turf preparation are right.
Garden and shade zone
Layered planting can create privacy and reduce reflected heat. Allow for mature root zones and avoid blocking drainage routes.
Outdoor entertaining
Paving, shade, seating and lighting can turn the former pool footprint into a useful social area. The base specification should suit the chosen surface.
Future ready space
Even if a structure is not planned now, keeping clear records of the removal work helps future design. Do not assume the area can carry a building without professional assessment.
