Alison Hammond’s garden renovation

During the segment, Alison proudly showed off her stunning outdoor space with ITV viewers.

Speaking to presenters Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, she explained: “It’s a brand new house, but the garden was an absolutely mess before I got it. It had draining issues and it was really getting me down.

“I absolutely hated it, so I thought lockdown has happened and this is going to be my labour of love. I got busy, I got into work and designed the garden.”

The mum-of-one had laid artificial grass on her lawn, positioned fake plants near to the fence, and even purchased her own hot tub for the patio area.

There was also a little BBQ, an impromptu gym and a selfie shelf.

Alison went on to reveal she had little help from her son, and renovated the garden entirely by herself.

She added: “Aiden stayed in his bedroom playing the Xbox and doing his home schooling. I didn’t have any help whatsoever.

“You know when you just want something to happen straight away? I just thought I’m going to get busy, I’ve got the time on my hands and I just got it done. I learnt how to do everything online.”
