Meet the Eco Creations team

Ben - Managing Director
Ben, our energetic and enthusiastic MD is the heart and soul of the company.
Originally from a marketing background, he left the rat race behind to become involved in the landscaping industry in 2001 - and has been running our award winning landscaping company ever since. With his personal motto, ‘you don’t win a silver you lose a gold’ Ben believes in excellence at all times and refuses to settle for anything less.
When not keeping the rest of the team in check, Ben can be found mucking out pigsty’s, rearing chickens and planting veggies on his much loved small holding.

Ed – Finance Director
With 15 years of experience working with charities and the creative sector as a trustee and director, Ed develops and implements financial strategies to ensure our affairs are always in apple pie order. Ed has a head for figures, matched only by his love of numbers and all things mathematical.
Neat and methodical in the office, Ed lets off steam in his free time by scrumming in the mud on the rugby field or training for the next tough guy race.

David – Designer
David is our resident landscape architect. His love for design can only be described as an obsession. Naturally creative and slightly eccentric, he possesses the perfect blend of skill and vision to produce the most stunning garden designs.
When not in his design studio, David can be found sailing the seas off the south coast or photographing the English countryside. He is also a keen cartoonist with aspirations to one day be the next Gary Larson.

Tim – Project Manager
Tim has been constructing award winning gardens for the past 20 years, so there’s nothing he doesn’t know about creating the perfect outdoor space. Give him the most intricate design, and he will make it a reality, without breaking a sweat.
A fan of all things sporting, Tim spends his free time hurling himself at grown men as a winger for his local rugby team.

Chris – Construction Team
Originally from the garden retail industry, Chris started constructing gardens 10 years ago and has never looked back. Naturally skilled with his hands, Chris is part of our talented hard landscaping team. Patios, decks and intricate paving are his speciality.
Chris is a real family man; if he is not at home working on his latest DIY project, he is on the football field coaching his boys’ football team.
-
Tony – Construction Team
Tony has been a gardener for most of his life: what he doesn’t know about creating and tending beautiful gardens isn’t worth knowing. Whilst working as a garden supervisor at Warwick Castle, he fell in love with the interaction of form, colour and texture within a landscape. Creating art using living plants has become his life’s passion.
As a keen music lover, Tony has a vinyl collection to match the late John Peel. He firmly believes that the compilation of real music ceased after the 1970s.
-
Andy – Construction Team
Andy has spent most of his life travelling, constructing gardens all over the world. All the way from South America, Australia and through to France, he has left his stamp on many foreign soils. In 2004 he finally hung up his travelling boots and settled in the UK where he has been an important part of our hard landscaping team ever since.
Nicknamed Butterbean, in his spare time Andy enjoys playing squash, badminton and tennis.
