David did a first class job of fitting beautiful composite decking to my garden in Blackhall. He gave great advice about style and choice of colour and also choice and sourcing of plants! Can’t wait for the sun to sit out and enjoy a glass of wine. Thanks a lot Dave!

David laid a lovely slate path for us one year and then a slate patio and paths the next. He is a great person to work with: creative, VERY patient and always listened to and delivered what we wanted. No stress!

We selected Dave on the basis of an Edinburgh business address and the online reviews - and hoped ? They were genuine. Totally delighted with our new decking and getting Dave back for further decking in a different area of our garden. Dave responded to my request for a quote quickly, priced it quickly, delivered the quote quickly and then completed the work when his schedule allowed. Very polite and friendly, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend .

Transformed my garden into a place for relaxation, socialising and growth. David listened to all my suggestions and recreated my plan, offering advice and sourcing materials. Nothing was too much trouble. He created decking, patios, seating, planters, architectural beds and replanted. Can't wait to enjoy the space this summer. Thanks.

Very happy with David and our large deck. He had to be creative with different heights, and worked in freezing weather to get it finished to a high standard. Would highly recommend.

Delighted with David and his friendly and professional approach. He completed our new 60 square metre patio using the Trex system in two weeks on budget and on time and was tidy, clearing all rubbish from the site. His advice, guidance and expertise were welcomed and much appreciated. Look no further than David if you’re considering any garden projects.

David landscaped our back and front gardens in spring 2021. We wanted a family friendly back garden to give our children a safe space to play in, replacing our old garden with raised concrete flowerbeds and slate paving. Our new back garden included raised composite decking, 2 fences, a shed, gates, paving, a raised flower bed with wood sleeper sides, and an artificial lawn. Our new front garden included paving, a custom bin store and new planting. We are very satisfied with the quality of the work and the service provided. David was very flexible, worked with our requirements and discussed the best approach to take. He was also extremely personable, and a pleasure to do business with.

We are very pleased with the work David carried out on our garden. It has completely transformed our outdoor space from an unusable jungle and practically dangerous decking to a relaxed and practical outdoor space. He installed a split level composite deck and the remaining space was covered in astro with a new trellis. Everything was completed to a high standard, on time and on budget. We enjoyed having David round during the work, so easy to get on with and great company. Would highly recommend.

I waited some time for David to become available to landscape my garden (he was booked solidly for months) which in itself was the right recommendation. I explained as best I could what I required and showed him a "very rough" scribbled idea. He took time discussing my needs and produced the most wonderful design which has drawn passersby to take photgraphs of. I am absolutely thrilled. This was a difficult site to start with but David changed it into a garden I want to be in. I appreciated the care and attention to detail that was taken. Work was done to a very high standard. Couldn't be happier. The garden is totally transformed and come Spring will be a haven of tranquility.Moreexpand_more

Dave and Sean made an excellent job of our Garden and I would recommend them. We had a 3 week job during heavy rain and it didn't impact on the final result. Very happy with the garden and the work completed.

David carried out 2 pieces of work at our recently extended home. Initial work was to build a fence, deck and bin store and the second was for paving a drive and creation of a stone slabbed patio to replace a lawn, together with building a raised stone walled flower bed, installation of water feature, planting of a shrub border and building a set of stone steps. David and his colleague performed the work to a high standard. He was very helpful in advising in choice of materials and plants. He also suggested using larch battens to obscure an old fence - this produced a great finish which has been much admired. I certainly recommend him.

We wanted to turn a sloping garden into a flat one with two levels. The bottom level split between turf and bark for a trampoline and the top level turfed. David provided the most competitive quote and was great at discussing ideas for the space. The service was excellent and professional, also providing advice on how to look after the garden going forward. I would highly recommend him and his team.

Response : Thanks John, my pleasure to install the Deck for you. It was great to see a picture showing the lighting scheme at night.

Dave was great to work with and full of ideas to implement what we wanted. The garden was cleared and various elements of hard landscaping laid, including a new bed made from sleepers. The garden is transformed and we are delighted.

Dave did decking and steps outside our extension and a new side gate. He sourced the material we were looking for and worked to our drawings. He did a great job and was friendly to have around. I would definitely recommend him.
Daniel Padden
Edinburgh
Very happy with the work done in our back garden, transforming it into a flexible functional family space. David and his co-worker cleared the existing garden and then built bespoke wooden raised beds/seating with railway sleepers, and paved the whole area. David was happy to discuss options and possibilities throughout the job, and kept me well-informed of progress. He advised about planting/growing options, and suitable products for aftercare etc. He also carried out small additional work on request, beyond the original remit. Friendly and communicative, I'd happily recommend David for the quality of his work and professionalism.
Frances Roberts

I had a very small plot which was very overgrown with a broken down fence and really old slabs. Dave and his team came along and transformed it - I am amazed. He decked the whole area and put in a new fence and gate and I cannot believe the transformation. He and his team worked hard and delivered exactly what I asked for. They even went the extra mile to placate my neighbour when she was upset with the new fence - (all is now well). The materials used are very good and will last a very long time and I am looking forward to a nice summer. A big thank you to Dave and team. I would recommend to anyone.
Gavin Sharp
Dalkeith
We just want to thank Dave and the team for all the help and the attention to detail in transforming our new build garden into an area we cant wait to use over the coming months. At the start of the process we really didn't know what to do with the empty space and with Dave's help and vision the team really have created a decking, pergola and garden area that our neighbours are already jealous off. We couldn't recommend Dave and the team highly enough as there friendly nature, attention to detail and workmanship really is second to none and all for a very affordable price. We will definitely be using them again in the future.
Response : Thanks Gavin , it was a pleasure.
