Edinburgh Gardeners And Landscapers

Shaun and his team were excellent throughout; knowledgeable, courteous and professional. The garden was a moonscape beforehand. They efficiently removed tonnes of concrete and pebbles at the start of the job before transforming the site into a simple, but exceptionally well finished, front and back garden. The work was completed on time and on budget despite us asking for some small alterations to the design as the works progressed and despite inclement weather. We could not be more pleased.

EG&L did a first-class job on our back garden. The garden was a complete mess following construction work, but within a couple of weeks it was transformed into exactly what we had hoped for. The team took a lot of pride in their work, showed an eye for detail and were flexible with our ideas and any changes we wanted to incorporate along the way. Overall, the garden looks fabulous, very neat and of a high standard. Would thoroughly recommend EG&L and will likely use the team again for our front garden in the future.

We would have no reservation recommending Shaun and his team. They were such a delight to work with from the initial discussion to the design of our front and back gardens and the final hard landscaping and planting. Shaun listened carefully to our ideas and made helpful suggestions through the whole process. Nothing seemed too much trouble. The team were always on time, worked incredibly hard, were thoroughly professional and always tidied up at the end of the day. After several weeks' work they felt like family! We are absolutely delighted with the end result.

We are delighted with the complete make over to our front garden that Shaun and his team recently completed. It looks even better then we could have imagined, and has attracted lots of compliments. Shaun replies quickly to emails, attends all appointments on time, and answered our many questions patiently. In addition we welcomed the various suggestions he made, and the various samples of patio paving that he provided.The team were very well mannered, tidy and the job was completed ahead of time and to budget. Shaun communicated throughout the process and we are extremely pleased with the transformation to what was an very tired looking garden. As a result we have asked Shaun to help with the next stage which is choice of plants and planting. We would highly recommend Shaun and his staff to all.

I would unreservedly recommend Shaun and his team at Edinburgh Gardeners and Landscapers. We called on Shaun’s services to resolve a puddle problem on our our partly paved garden. Shaun’s expert eye immediately identified the problem and the solution. Shaun also listened and offered ideas to help us meet other requirements for our garden. Shaun’s team did a very good job in completing the works. The team were professional, efficient and courteous. The job was completed on time, on budget and to a very good quality. Minor issues, for example a wobbly paving stone, were quickly resolved. The frequent summer downpours throughout summer 2019 provided a test of the team’s workmanship. Our garden remained puddle free throughout! Shaun was also conscious of the environmental impact of the work being done. Materials were re-used where possible and the carbon cost of new materials was calculated to enable us to offset emissions from production. It is commendable for a small, local business to be environmentally aware.

Impressed with initial site visit and proposals for redesign of major part of rear garden which involved major works. The work was done to the agreed schedule and budget. The trader was very helpful and flexible which allowed design changes and significant improvements even during the progress of the work. Communication was excellent, before, during and after the project. Very satisfied with everything the trader did and would have no hesitation in recommending the trader and his employees to potential customers.

This was Shaun's third project for us (which tells you something straightaway). This time we and our neighbours wanted to improve the decrepit paths in adjoining gardens, and to create a stable parking area for one small car. The results have surpassed all our expectations: smart, traditional cobble edging; paths & parking area properly excavated, prepared, lined and gravelled. All done within timescale and a reasonable estimate. The team's hallmarks are strong commitment to the job and to the customer, good humour, professionalism. When we dithered over the choice of gravel, Shaun brought extra samples & discussed their pros & cons. We decided to go with his original recommendation, which turned out a great success - a gravel that tones in with the colours of the building, is practical and stays put. This small company really gets things right: it's no surprise customers are queuing up.

Shaun, Mark and Jack did a fantastic job for us well within the timescales they set. They cleared the are at the side of our house, repaved it and created three raised plant beds. They worked through terrible weather and completed the job quickly and effectively always tidy and a great clear up at the end. We are now going to try to get them to work on our front garden. Can’t recommend them highly enough!

From first contact we found Shaun to be helpful and flexible. He was interested in hearing what we had in mind, happy to help with suggestions or possible improvements to our original ideas. The work was to remove old patio, relay and extend in sandstone and make new steps. New level required in one area of patio in rear garden, and on front path remove old pointing and repoint. Estimate and rough drawing emailed in good time. Shaun Mark and Jack arrived on site as promised on time each morning, kept us in touch with progress. They were very professional, worked hard, obviously took pride in doing a good job, polite, cheerful and helpful. Work done to very high standard. Work materials and rubbish cleared away, leaving a tidy, very satisfactory and attractive finish. We would have no hesitation in employing EGL for our next garden project. They were a pleasure to have around!

Shaun, Mark and Jack did an excellent and very professional job, reforming and relaying a large patio area. Originally we wanted to use terracotta tiles but Shaun advised that this would not last and suggested alternative paviours. These are very attractive but small and required impressively skilled cutting and laying, giving a great result. They also redid our leaking pond with a different finish. Shaun's advice was good, the work was carried out efficiently and effectively. All waste was taken away. Skilled workers such as these are in high demand so don't be in a hurry to start the work but once they got going, they concentrated on our job.
