BTEC Higher National Diploma In Landscape And Horticultural Technology

Graduating in 1993 with “Credit” on his BTEC HND In Landscape And Horticultural Technology studied at Askham Bryan College, David has also amassed 20+ years working as a professional in the Landscape Design And Build Industry on Projects between £100 and £200,000.

Whilst studying, David lived in both Copmanthorpe and Acomb and is now based only an hours drive away in his home town of Hull.

You may be reading this thinking “why should I employ an out of town designer rather than a local one?”. The answer on this occasion is; although York is well-served with local Garden Designers, few (if any) are going to have the unique professional Landscape Architect trained background, “hands on” practical experience and expert 2D / 3D CAD Design And Visualisation skills that David has to offer!

"Yes had that scenario where you can't reach a fiddly bit no matter what ladder and have to balance on the apex of a shed roof or do best job painstakingly with a long reach pole pruner . "

"the tripods are good but in some scenarios the wide base and the fact the 3rd leg has to be placed some distance away from the step part for stability makes this large foot print impractical eg when cutting hedge behind a shed or greenhouse with…"

"Never tried these but always thought they look a bit of a pain to cart about. Looking at the picture, seems you're quite away from the hedge so you have to reach out more?   I just use ordinary aluminium extension ladders that you can easily adjust…"

Sam Bainbridge replied to Tim Wallach's discussion Tripod ladder user? Your advice sought please!
"Tripods are better than any other ladder that's a fact. You can cut hedges that are lower than the ladder but it is more awkward, I have a 6ft amd a 12 foot been using both for the last 15yrs and haven't come stuck yet. Believe me once you've had…"
