What can I say? Nathan is amazing, he took one look at my concrete courtyard, came up with loads of ideas and transformed it into my new haven. Amazing, inspiring and an absolute pleasure to me

We found lots of companies that could do basic landscaping, but we chose New Gardens for their creative and artistic designs. Their photos speak for themselves. Nathan immediately made a good impression. He was courteous, knowledgeable and able to interpret our ideas and vision of transforming our garden from a sloped, unusable mess and create a garden with flat, functional areas that are a joy to look at and be in. During the project his team worked hard and paid attention to detail. They communicated well, took pride in their work and were very professional throughout. Nathan’s suggestions and ability to work with us as the job progressed allowed us to make changes and tweaks to enhance and achieve the desired effect. We are left with a fantastic looking garden that we can't be happier with. We can highly recommend New Gardens and will be calling them again if we need any further work to our garden. Thanks again for all your work, our garden is amazing.

Professional and friendly service. Excellent workmanship, clean, tidy and knowledgeable team. Hard to find professionals in this slap-dash age. Was a welcome relief to find New Gardens.

"Thanks Rodger and Sharon. A really interesting project working with your choice in materials. Looking forward to see how you develop the garden and get it all planted up this summer. I hope the garden becomes all you wished for and more as a space for entertaining and relaxation "

One of the reasons I chose Nathan to landscape my garden was the energy and obvious love he has for what he does. The first time I met him he listened to my ideas and I could tell he was already picturing how he was going to create it and which plants and lighting would work best! Nathan was patient with my 'dithering' over the final design and once things had started we talked most days about what had been done and what would be happening next. Nathan and his team were professional and friendly at all times and kept to their schedule. We are very happy with our garden and have no regrets at all over choosing New Gardens to do the work.

We had a full design and build service from New Gardens. The whole experience was a pleasure. Nathan and the team were friendly and efficient. They paid great attention to the details, were always keen to listen to what we wanted whilst at the same time adding the value of their experience and expertise. They took great pride in their work and we would not hesitate to recommend them.

Nathan, Tom and The New Gardens Team were great to work with. Friendly competent, flexible and professional. As we had a full garden makeover plans needed to change and be revised as we progressed. The end result was more than we hoped for. Our neighbours have been so complimentary. Overall we are very satisfied. There were a few snags which were remedied within agreed timescales. I would happily recommend.

Like most of us do when wanting a project completing we browse websites and read local papers to call in the experts. This is where i came across New Gardens. WOW.... A simple phone call resulted in Nathan coming out to quote for multiple ideas i had in my garden. His knowledge and passion towards giving me the perfect garden all year round ticked all the boxes. If you want a job not just "well done" but exceeds what you'd imagine then New Gardens are the company to go with. Nathan and his team have completed all aspects of landscaping in my garden. This ranges from replacing fence panels to featherboard fencing, removing rotten decking for a new patio, laying a new lawn and digging out an amazing pond which was complete with an eye catching waterfall. I will only use New Gardens for any future projects. The service you receive is outstanding and quality of work is amazing and as for price it's far more realistic than anywhere/anyone else.

Smart checks

Before you hire a landscaper

Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour — a vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials' — agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated — protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
