Landscapes built properly, by the people who'll stand behind them.
Waller & Smith is a family-run landscaping and garden design team working across Godalming, Guildford, Cranleigh and the Surrey & Hampshire borders — patios, driveways, fencing, brickwork and gardens finished to last.
A family business that's been shaping Surrey gardens for four decades.
Waller & Smith has been designing and building gardens, patios and driveways around Godalming since 1984. We're still exactly what we started as: a small, family-run team who'd rather do a job properly than do it fast — and who are happy to talk you through the design before a single slab goes down.
You'll usually find Sam and the crew on site from the first delivery of stone to the last brush of jointing sand, working to a standard we'd be happy to put our own name to — which, as it happens, we do.

Hard landscaping & garden design
From a new fence panel to a full garden rebuild, it's all handled by the same small team — no subcontractors passed between jobs.
Garden & Landscape Design
Practical, attractive outdoor spaces planned around how you actually use your garden — then built by the same people who designed it.
Patios & Driveways
Indian sandstone, porcelain or block paving, laid with proper falls and drainage.
Fencing
Lost a panel in a storm, or replacing a tired boundary. We fit a range of fencing to suit the property and the budget.
Brickwork & Stonework
Retaining walls, raised beds, steps and repointing. New brickwork built to match, or old work brought back to life.
Groundwork & Site Preparation
Excavation, levelling, drainage and sub-base — the part nobody sees that decides whether the job lasts.
Turfing & Planting
New lawns, borders and planting schemes to finish the space off.

What Surrey homeowners say
A few words from homeowners we've worked with across Godalming and Surrey.
The team delivered an outstanding driveway, path and patio on a tricky sloping site — finished on time, on budget, with genuinely useful advice along the way.
So pleased with the first patio that we had them straight back for the driveway and front garden — both have picked up plenty of compliments from passers-by.
From the first quote through design advice to the finished driveway, Sam and the team were knowledgeable, fairly priced and clearly took pride in the detail.
Sam, Eric and the team turned a tired old parking space into a driveway with real kerb appeal — hard-working, good humoured, and unfazed by a hidden gas pipe along the way.
Such a good job on the patio that we asked them straight back to do the driveway too — glad we did, it turned out really well.
A hard-working, professional team led by Sam, always ready to talk through progress and clearly building work meant to stand the test of time.
