The Landscaping Expert
Specialist independent expert witness for landscaping, garden construction and external works disputes.
When a dispute concerns general landscape, paving, decking, retaining structure, drainage system, horticulture, lawns, a general building expert may not always provide the specialist knowledge required.
The Landscaping Expert provides focused technical expertise in landscape construction and external works, helping solicitors and their clients establish what has gone wrong, why it has happened and what reasonably needs to be done about it.
Expert Witness
Karl Harrison accepts instructions in disputes involving defective landscaping, poor workmanship, material and installation failures, drainage, levels and falls, paving, decking, retaining structures, garden buildings, fencing, screening, artificial grass, lawns, soils, horticulture and associated external works.
