MKM Garden Competition
MKM transforms garden of lucky competition winner

“I’m over the moon with my new garden!”

We are delighted to announce that we have completed our garden transformation for Hull resident, Carole Jones. Carole recently won our landscaping competition, run in conjunction with East Yorkshire radio station Magic 1161, to win a garden make-over. Carole was treated to over £1000 of landscaping materials and consultations with one of our in-branch landscaping specialists. She was also given access to the expertise of local landscaping contractors from Hamlyn Fencing and Paving.

Carole entered the competition because she didn’t have any outside space to enjoy, as she explains:

“I’m over the moon with my new garden! I’ve been married for 27 years and haven’t taken a holiday once. I have two disabled sons and a disabled husband so it has always been difficult to maintain the garden and keep it looking nice. I’ve never really had anywhere pleasant to sit outside and wheelchair access wasn’t great.

“MKM has installed a safe wheelchair ramp so the whole family can enjoy the garden and I now have a beautiful space to spend time with family and friends. I’ve already had my first barbecue and I’m looking forward to enjoying the summer outside!”

Mike Foster, the landscaping expert at our Anlaby branch comments:

“We were delighted to have helped Carole. Her garden needed a complete overhaul, so we started by taking it right back to its raw state. We then designed the garden according to Carole’s requirements and met with her at our Anlaby branch so she could browse our range of paving, fencing and decorative aggregates. In the end, she opted for the introduction of gravelled areas, a brand new shed and high quality, natural stone paving that will last and look great for years. Carole loves the end result and we are glad we were able to give her the use of her garden back!”

Our suppliers, including Stonemarket, Forest Garden, Yarrows Aggregates, Biowise, Toolbank, Everbuild, Wrekin, and International Timber, worked alongside our specialist landscaping team design and create Carole’s dream garden. Special thanks also go out to John Perry and Keith Hudson from Hamlyn Fencing and Paving, who completed the landscaping work.
