Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) 01 – Preparation of Suitable Sub-Grades

This is the first in a series of technical SOPs being released by The Garden Landscapers.

The SOPs are downloadable resources that garden design professionals can keep on file as an example of best practice. These procedures are used in conjunction with site specific risk assessments and method statements.

Surfaces and structures are only as good as their formation level, regardless of the sub-base they sit on. Use this step by step guide not only ensure you are designing correctly, but so you can the monitor work of contractors on site more effectively.

We’re always happy to receive feedback so if you feel we’re missing something, please let us know!
