The Best Gardeners in Guildford, Surrey, United Kingdom (2025)

From an uninspiring blank canvas which was our new build garden (undulating poor quality lawn from fence to fence), Sally listened to want we would like from the space, how we wanted to use it and the plants we liked. She translated our thoughts and preferences perfectly into a lovely garden which we will enjoy for many years. Sally is talented and very knowledgable about plants and trees, and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her.

Sally gave us super advice for what plants would work well in our front garden. We had already had a go ourselves, but ended up with empty plant beds and big gaps due to frost and bugs eating up our plants. Sally took into account what was already there, what would work in that space and the look we were going for. The document with suggestions, ‘the snippet’, is very extensive and contains all the info you need to make your decision. Highly recommend!

Sally was fantastic. We were absolutely clueless, and Sally designed a planting scheme that perfectly met our requirements and has flourished from day one. The whole process was excellent, from the paper designs we received, to the physical plant placement, and then the follow up advice. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sally.

Sally has done wonders with our garden. She has a great business model which makes garden design accessible to a range of budgets. The "Order in the Border" package was great for us. Sally visited to see where the sunlight hit, the quality of the soil and had a chat about what we were aiming for. She matched all of this with our lifestyle, family needs and personal taste. Utterly thrilled, it has been a real joy to see our garden come to life.

Really nice place, and a cute little museum to go with it. Defo have a look

Sage have looked after my Garden for 8 years, both in terms of maintenance and re-design including installation of new lawns, hedges, and paving. They have always been super professional, the service and attention to detail is second to none. They are super reliable, even during the heat wave they came extra early. Not a low cost solution but totally worth it. First class.

The Sage team have done a fantastic job of our replacement fencing. They worked very hard to overcome some very challenging ground conditions and have erected some really good quality, great looking panels with concrete posts and gravel boards. Highly recommended.

I am very happy with Sage Landscape Gardening services. They've built a new patio and changed the tiles on my porch. All was handled in a very timely manner and to the agreed budget. I hope to use them again in the future for other projects. Highly recommend!

Great experience with Thomas, Tobias, Candice and all the hard workers at Sage. The work was done to a really high standard and Thomas really helped with the creative design. Sage have all the kit and left the site in a really clean state. Highly recommend.

Greatest landscaper ever

Great garden design. Turned up on time. Delivered above and beyond. Highly recommend.

Trisha and James did a wonderful job in my not large but rather ‘busy’ garden, working hard and taking care of my first concern by removing bindweed from one bed and discussing solutions and generally tidying up other areas. I love the fact that Trisha is very sympathetic to wildlife friendly gardens and look forward to a continuing relationship where, as on their first visit, Nectar Gardens put my mind at rest about being unable to cope completely on my own in future with what I have created in my (younger) past.

Nectar Gardens are the creators and maintainers of my bespoke garden that I have enjoyed tremendously, within the limitations of dimensions, site, climate change and cost. This they have achieved, in my experience, over the last 7 years. It has been a joy to watch the transformation of the original garden into its current dazzling form .The garden has a life of its own that fits within its surroundings and contributes to the good of the environment. You can watch it grow, as mine has done, and enjoy the praise of your visitors.

Trisha and her team have been wonderful with our garden in SW19. They are knowledgeable, hard working and lovely to have around. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

A new patio and retaining wall installed. A high quality job from Nathan and his team,i would highly recommend them to anyone else. Very pleased and impressed.

I recently had an oak double carport designed and installed by Buckingham Landscapes. Nathan and his team were very professional,the attention to detail was impressive and I’m really pleased with the finished product. Thankyou so much Buckingham Landscapes.

Would highly recommend Jamie for any landscaper / patio work! After a difficult few weeks trying to find a reliable, genuine landscaper to help with our patio - Jamie was by far the best I spoke to. Was up front with the job, actually gave a plan of action of what needed to be done and importantly, broke down a realistic quote. Everything was taken care of and there was no ‘hidden’ or surprise costs anywhere. Did an amazing job on the patio and even helped me with another little job that needed doing regarding some paint work, so that was much appreciated!

We had 24 beds buried 0.5m deep that we needed removing. Build & Scape quoted and got the work booked in promptly, were very easy to communicate with and friendly, came up with creative solutions to any and all problems, removing all the waste as well as getting the work done tidily and to a very high standard within the quoted timeframe. Thoroughly happy with the service all-round.

Very happy with all the work done by Jamie and the team at Build and Scape. They were diligent and hard working, fairly priced and always turned up on time and when scheduled. They went above and beyond to involve me at every step of the process to make sure everything was exactly as I wanted it, and ensured everything was left clean and tidy. I would highly recommend them.

This was a sizeable project comprising installation of a new patio and pathways plus construction of a powered water feature. It took 5 weeks to complete - which was in line with expectations. Jamie and his team did a great job from start to finish. A significant factor in this assessment is the attention to detail and the willingness to do the job properly without cutting corners. Jamie is also a great problem solver and will find a solution to any situation that (inevitably) arises as the work proceeds. He also does a great job in keeping the client updated on progress and any issues that have arisen. I would recommend this company without hesitation.

They trimmed my very long hedge and took out an apple tree. Hardworking and very friendly. Did a good job tidying up too

Alex and his team were prompt, very quick and did a great job. Would definitely recommend them.
