Why Us?
About Us
The Outdoor Room was founded in 1995 by David Dodd who qualified from, and then lectured at, Merrist Wood College in Surrey. He has a hands-on approach to the business, working closely with his experienced staff, designers and clients to provide a service of unbeatable standards.
We have a solid background in both hard and soft landscaping offering advice and construction in all areas of the garden.
The Outdoor Room is now regarded by many as one of the best landscaping companies in the country today.
