Patios and Driveways

Our patios and driveways are designed and installed to enhance both the appearance and practicality of your outdoor space. Whether you are creating a dedicated seating area, improving access around your garden, or upgrading your driveway, we deliver surfaces that are built for durability, safety, and long term performance.

We take a meticulous approach to every installation, beginning with proper excavation and sub-base preparation to ensure stability and effective drainage. This is particularly important in Edinburgh’s varied weather conditions, helping to prevent issues such as sinking, cracking, or standing water.

We work with a wide range of materials and finishes, allowing us to tailor each project to your property style and budget. Our team will advise you on layout, edging, and finishes to ensure a clean, cohesive result that complements your home.

Decking and Fencing

Our decking and fencing services provide structure, privacy, and improved usability for gardens of all sizes. Whether you want to create a raised decking area for relaxing or secure fencing to define your boundaries, we install solutions that are both practical and visually appealing.

We ensure all decking installations are correctly supported and ventilated to reduce movement and prolong lifespan. Fencing is installed with strength and alignment in mind, using quality materials that withstand exposure to wind and rain.

Every project is carefully planned to suit your garden layout, ensuring a balanced and professional finish that enhances the overall look of your outdoor space.

Bespoke Sheds and Storage

Our bespoke sheds and garden storage solutions are ideal for homeowners looking for practical storage that blends seamlessly into their garden design. Rather than relying on standard sized options, we design and build custom structures tailored to your exact requirements.

Each build is carefully planned around available space, intended use, and aesthetic preferences. Whether you need secure tool storage, bike housing, or discreet bin storage, we deliver functional solutions that enhance organisation while maintaining visual appeal.

All structures are built using durable materials and designed to withstand year round outdoor conditions.

Hard Landscaping

Our hard landscaping services focus on creating strong, functional features that form the backbone of a well-structured garden. From pathways and steps to raised beds and retaining walls, we construct elements that improve accessibility, drainage, and overall flow.

We carefully consider levels, materials, and positioning to ensure each feature integrates seamlessly with surrounding areas. This structured approach helps define different zones within your garden while creating a cohesive and visually balanced layout.

Hard landscaping plays a vital role in ensuring your garden remains practical, durable, and easy to maintain.

Planting

Our planting services are designed to complement your garden’s layout while adding colour, texture, and natural balance. We create planting schemes that take into account soil conditions, sunlight, and seasonal changes to ensure healthy growth and long-term success.

Whether you prefer bold, vibrant planting or a more subtle and structured approach, we select plants that suit your garden and maintenance preferences. Our planting work softens hard landscaping features and brings your outdoor space to life throughout the year.

We aim to create planting schemes that look established quickly while continuing to develop over time.

Garden Design

Our garden design service offers a complete solution for homeowners looking to transform their outdoor space. We focus on creating gardens that are not only visually appealing but also practical and easy to maintain.

From the initial consultation, we take the time to understand how you plan to use your garden and what style you prefer. This allows us to create a clear design plan that brings together hard landscaping, planting, and structural features into one cohesive layout.

By managing both the design and installation, we ensure your garden is delivered exactly as planned, with consistent quality from start to finish.

Garden Maintenance

Our garden maintenance service helps keep your outdoor space looking its best throughout the year. We provide reliable, professional care to ensure your garden remains tidy, healthy, and enjoyable in every season.

From regular lawn care and hedge trimming to pruning, weeding, and seasonal tidy-ups, we tailor our maintenance work to suit the needs of your garden. We take the time to understand your space and the level of upkeep you prefer, creating a schedule that keeps everything looking its best without unnecessary work.

Our experienced team works carefully and efficiently, using the right tools and techniques to maintain the health and appearance of your plants and outdoor areas. Whether you require ongoing maintenance or occasional support, we ensure your garden is always well looked after.

Testimonials

Gardeners arrived promptly, as arranged, and worked flat out pruning over-grown bushes and giving a general end-of-season tidy up to both front and back gardens. They finished much quicker than I expected, removed all rubbish and left the garden very tidy. Very pleased with their work.

 

– John, Midlothian

We would like to thank Shaun and his hard working, friendly team for our high quality fencing. We would highly recommend this company and would not hesitate to use their company in the future.

 

– Brenda Roxburgh

Really happy with the work carried out to our front and back garden. The team were very friendly and professional and able to offer help as and when required. The job was completed within the given timescales and to a very high standard. Would recommend to a friend.

 

– Anonymous

Shaun and his team did an incredible job rescuing the garden following a terrible job by another company 2-3 years ago which left the garden unsafe for our 4 years old to play in. The end result genuinely exceeded any expectations I had. I rarely post reviews, however feel I need to on this occasion given the level of professionalism shown by the team and the incredible workmanship. I’d happily recommend to anyone…..

 

Derek

First, Shaun and his team were a joy to have around: happy, positive-minded and clearly enjoying their work. Second, together we came up with a lovely and practical design to reconfigure a derelict garden – with Shaun’s good ideas greatly improving my own initial thoughts. Third, the work was done on time and on (a fairly tight) budget. Fourth, throughout, Shaun was generous with his advice. Overall, a hugely enjoyable and successful project.

 

Mark

Shaun has just completed another project, this time for us and our neighbours. He has transformed the two front gardens, creating traditional cobble-edged paths and a firm gravel area for a car. All the work has been done with care and patience by a team who clearly know their business, work to very high standards, and want the customer to be delighted with the results. I recommend this company without reservation. My previous post follows below. Demand for Shaun’s services runs high; and he is worth waiting for. I’ve been very impressed by the way he works and the results he & his team achieve. They listen to the client; offer sound and creative advice; and work well together, taking evident pride in their skill & workmanship. In barely a week of hard work, they have transformed paths & gravel beds in the back garden. I don’t mind being in a queue when the outcome is this good.

 

Roma

Shaun and his team did a brilliant job with our back garden, we’re delighted and recommend them highly! We explained what we would like and Shaun had great ideas on how to achieve it. He spoke us through his ideas, drew up options and brought samples to help us decide on a design. When undertaking the job the team were all really lovely and completed the job professionally with no bother at all. The garden is now better than we imagined and finished to a very high standard.

 

Claire

Shaun and his team have done a beautiful job of restoring our back garden to a place I can grow plants in. They removed artificial grass and replaced it with a lovely mix of ground level and raised beds along with a paved area which matches beautifully with our existing patio. The only access to the garden is through the house and it was clear that they are well practised at moving equipment and materials through in the minimum time and making no mess. They are very professional and friendly to deal with. I am very happy with the whole experience and the resulting garden.

 

Rona

This is the second time I have used Shaun and his team at EGL to landscape our garden. First time, they did a great job on our back garden. This time, they have done an equally good job on our front garden. I would have no hesitation using them again…wait…I don’ t have any more gardens…but you know what I mean. I would happily recommend EGL to anybody looking for a professional, knowledgeable, skilled, trustworthy, passionate and friendly team of people to landscape their garden. Shaun listened to our requirements, helped clarify our muddled thinking, offered different design ideas and helped clarify our thinking again to agree the final design. He then worked with his team to create our new front garden in the timeframe he gave and to the cost he quoted. We are once again very pleased with the professionalism of the service, the quality of the workmanship, the diligence of the team and the layout of our garden.

 

J Robertson

Shaun and his team did a variety of work for us in December including landscaping, creating a new pathway, fencing and general tidying of shrubs etc. We couldn’t be more delighted with the result. From start to finish they were friendly and professional and used their extensive experience to find the best solution to the particular challenge we had with the fencing in our garden. They are extremely hard working, finished ahead of schedule and we’ve already recommended them to a number of friends. Now that we’ve experienced their level of service we wouldn’t use anyone else.

 

Laura

We are very happy with the work that Edinburgh Gardeners and landscapers did in our garden and would recommend the company. They replaced our decking with a patio and did a very professional job giving good advice and suggestions about the work being carried out. Shaun and his team were reliable and professional.

 

David

From first contact we found Shaun of Edinburgh Gardeners And Landscapers to be very helpful and imaginative. He was interested in hearing our ideas and was happy to help with suggestions or possible improvements. Shaun Mark and Jack arrived on site as promised and on time every day. They removed all the old patio slabs, and relaid and extended the patio, provided much more attractive drain covers, improved the steps and relevelled another area, and repointed the front path. They were polite, cheerful and hardworking, obviously taking pride in their work. The work was done to a very high standard. All materials and rubbish were cleared away, leaving a tidy, very satisfactory and attractive finish. We would definitely recommend this firm!

 

Kathleen

Greatly impressed by the creativity, knowledge and skill Shaun and his team put in to completely transform the garden. Shaun’s expertise on design, planting and materials was spot on. I also appreciated his frank advice which saved me making a big mistake. 100% professional and very pleasant company to work with.

 

Louise

Quite simply if you find a better gardening company than Edinburgh Gardeners & Lansscapers for your garden I’d be amazed. Shaun and his team transformed our garden in just a week. If you are looking for a gardening company then I’d 100% recommend Shaun and his team, I couldn’t fault them in any way.
