We were delighted to work with Dowie Designs to create a new garden from the 20 year neglect that our Tatachilla Winery Stables block suffered.

Our experience with the boys was in dry stone slate work and paving. They were reliable, hard working and their attention to detail was excellent. They use a mix of current day methods and stone work skills of the past. Trustworthy and conscientious.

I recently employed 'Dowie Designs' to both repair some existing dry-stone garden walling and to build new terracing to match it, and I am thrilled with the result. It was not an easy job as the embankment was steep and the terraced walls had to adjoin existing stone steps but both their design and ...
