I didn't know where to put this here or gardening...?

Just got a quote for a new garden.. And I'm not sure if I'm just out of touch with what's normal.
I've been abroad for some time.

The quote includes, paving, pergola, new shed and raised planters. It also has a new path, bin store and some fancy Venetian fencing.
It's a new build relatively small but not tiny garden. We already have lots of established plants so none needed.

Is this outrageous? Please can you tell me what you paid or even better if you're a landscaper.

I'm in the south east.

All advice gratefully accepted Blush

We had a garden designer in who wanted £6k just for drawings. In the end we got gardners in, we discussed the plans, doodles of what was happening & all the work & materials cost £6k.

I think some gardners are getting more like architects & charging the same for all the fancy drawings.
