The Best Gardeners in Leeds, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom (2025)

We inherited a spectacular but somewhat densely stocked garden that was in need of a spring clean. Louis was just fantastic and got us ship-shape in no time. Now we’ve found him we won’t be letting him go. Highly recommend!

I first discovered Louis last year after I had been let down by someone else, and I am very happy that I did. After the first visit I knew my garden was in good hands and I wouldn't need to worry about the garden maintenance any more. Louis works hard and just gets on with what needs to be done, he doesn't need to be told what to do and is approachable, both in person if he is working in the garden or by text message, if I need him to do anything else. I am extremely happy that Louis has agreed to do my garden again this year and for him to continue in the future, he works hard and cleans up fully after the work is done, he comes every two weeks for my garden and worth every penny.

My mum and I are absolutely delighted with the work Montapex did in our garden. It was looking very neglected after our previous gardener had been unable to continue. They have transformed the garden, are reasonably priced, pleasant, and we are now proud to open the gate! We have already recommended them to a friend and will continue to do so.

Green Garden helped out to clear a section of our property that was overgrown with weeds and creepers. They did a fantastic job!

Amazing job! Guys knows what to do, they are polite, and after all they cleaned everything! Highly recommended!

Absolutely brilliant job! Cleared a garden that has had no attention in 8 years and cut back hedges that hadn’t seen a pair of shears for as least as long. Quick, efficient and tidy (all refuse taken away) and very reasonably priced I thought. Couldn’t be happier with their work

Fantastic experience using Ben and colleague for a very large hedge trimming. Work is exceptional, all waste was taken away and the site left tidy. Definitely recommend and will be using again for future works.

Excellent Job. I had a row of substantial overgrown conifers next to a train line and a large hedge to trim back. Ben gave me a speedy quote, came when he said he would and made a potentially tricky job look easy. The job was performed efficiently and for a great price. Everything was left immaculate after. Will happily Employ Ben and team again

Ben and his team were very efficient at taming back our overgrown garden - good communication, competitive price, tidy clean up. Would highly recommend!

Our gardens were very overgrown with hedges, shrubs, fruit trees and conifers needing trimming/pruning. An excellent job was carried out and all cuttings were taken away leaving everywhere neat and tidy. All done quickly and at a good price. Would recommend and will be returning customers.

I have a small to medium sized garden on a slope, a long list of things I want to do in the space and a relatively small budget - a triple challenge! Sarah really listened and talked through all my ideas and came up with a brilliant design that incorporates lots of planting space for veg, herbs and flowers, a fruit garden, wildlife pond and seating area, whilst dealing with the slope and somehow making it seem bigger than before! It's a joy to be in and wows everyone who visits. Sarah was friendly, knowledgeable and professional and went the extra mile to help me. I have no hesitation in recommending North Leeds Garden Design.

I recently had the One Day Consultation with Sarah at North Leeds Garden Design. It was brilliant - a really useful morning spent going round our garden and talking through solutions to the various problem areas and Sarah sent through an incredibly detailed report after spending an afternoon back in the office. She came up with some great ideas for the garden and I've already implemented a couple of the simple ones. I don't normally do things like this but it was well worth the money - I now know where to spend money on the garden and what plants will work well in our soil, which will avoid wasting money in the future on unsuitable plants. I am also more confident about going forward with projects in the garden.

When we bought our house, we were didn’t know where to start with the overgrown garden. We wanted to maintain the established plants and borders but make it low maintenance and easy to stay on top of. Annabel and Sarah created a contemporary garden design, which incorporated everything we were looking for in a low maintenance design. It turned out exactly as we wanted and we couldn’t recommend them more!

I recently had a One Day garden consultation with Sarah to give me some inspiration and advice on what to do with our garden (we’ve recently moved into a new build house with a fairly large garden area that we wanted to make the best of with some lovely planting while also making it kid friendly for our toddler and find space for a shed!). Sarah spent the morning with me thoroughly going through ideas for types of plants, positioning of plants, garden layout and helped with lots of problem solving too (as the garden space we have has a fairly challenging layout). It was a really enjoyable morning and I liked the collaborative approach that Sarah took, exploring my preferences at every point. From the morning’s session, Sarah produced a wonderfully detailed garden proposal for us and specific instructions for planting. Sarah’s plant knowledge is really impressive, she knew exactly what was best for our soil and the Yorkshire climate. As someone with minimal gardening experience, I now feel like I have a route forwards to creating a beautiful garden whereas before I didn’t know where to begin!! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend! Thank you Sarah!

Fantastic experience with Garden Revamps, laying artificial grass and building planters and decking. From getting our initial quote from Graham to agreeing on the works to be done, the team couldn’t have been more helpful. Once they started on the job they kept us well informed of their progress and got the job done to a great standard, love our new outdoor space. Would highly recommend!

I would just like to say a massive thank you to Graham for taking my garden work on. From start to finish the lads have being awesome and I'm quite picky with tradesmen but have to say that Tom and Shaun have been brilliant and do work thier socks off and the finish product is awesome. I've had my front lawn taken up, cultivated and returfed and the back garden fence has been pulled down and a new one put up. The lads were punctual, reliable, friendly and very knowledgeable. Overall if I need anymore work doing then these are my go to indeed and will be recommending them to others

My mum has just had her garden done and this is her feedback.... A job very well done by Graham and his team. We just had our back garden transformed, with new bespoke tiles and some beautiful looking steps, spaced out safely to avoid falling and made larger than before to give more depth to the overall look, which is stunning and will be so much easier for us to maintain. We would highly recommend Graham, a great team, very professional and does the job on time!

I can’t fault Graham and his team. They were putting in a long concrete path to give a flat access to our church hall. They were working by the Church and school and were really helpful to people by trying not to get in their way when dropping off children. Graham kept in touch every day to ensure we had everything we had asked for and the path is perfect and many parishioners have commented on the excellent work. I would definitely recommend Garden Revamps. Adding to this review as they have now finished the second section of work putting up a 6ft fence and two more gates covering a large area. Just as with the other job, arrived on time did the job professionally and worked hard to finish it for us. Looks great. Again would highly recommend and we will certainly use Garden Revamps again.

Absolutely fab job undertaken by two lovely lads. All hedges trimmed and rubbish taken away. Would highly recommend for any gardening jobs. Even treated my weeds at no extra cost. Many thanks to Rob and Kai.

Highly recommended, services top notch, only gardener, I would ever use, no job too big or too small. Great attention to detail and ensures area is neat and tidy after work.

We asked Rob to maintain the garden at our parent's house until sold after they passed. Rob quoted turned up when he said and did a first class job returning as and when required. We live over 100 miles away and Rob just messaged to say he was going and sent pictures when finished. We could not ask for more and cannot recommend these guys highly enough ! They were fantastic value for money and the work was 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A massive thank you.

If you are looking for Gardening Maintenance service look no further than Rob at Tidier Gardens !He expertly cut back and shaped over two dozen shrubs and small trees and removed waste at a very competitive price. To say I was delighted with the outcome is an understatement !

Rightscapes were happy to take on our quite small project of relaying our lawn and digging out, and making a soakaway to solve a drainage issue. Sam's advice was spot on and the work done by Toby and Chris was excellent. Very pleased that at quite short notice, Rightscapes were able to fit in our project before the summer. Thank you

RightScapes were recommended to me by a friend who has had work done by them so I was happy to go ahead and contact them. The team were friendly and attentive. They were quick to quote and were able to come out to deal with our large hedge very quickly. They did a great job and were tidy and professional throughout - happy to recommend !!

We would definitely recommend the team. We are delighted with the work done on our garden which at this stage has involved a new drive and fence. A really good standard of work and all the team were great. Very tidy throughout. Dedicated to get the job done!

From the time Sam the manager came to plan my garden the whole experience was excellent. josh and Jason worked non stop to complete a beautiful landscape. With great consideration to my neighbours and surroundings Well done to everyone at rightscapes! A big thank you

We had an absolutely brilliant experience working with the FirstLight team. After being disappointed by several companies Neal really took on board what we wanted. The team (headed up by Dave) were informative throughout, even keeping me up to date while I was away on holiday. Incredibly clean and tidy at the end of each working day. Any changes we made were taken onboard without any fuss. The quality of workmanship is clear to see and we now have a beautiful back garden that we can really enjoy and show off. Thank you everyone at FirstLight landscapers.

FirstlightLandscaping first built our raised decking 14 years ago so when it needed replacing we didn’t hestitate to contact them again. As before Liam, Neal & their team were so respectful & professional & did a fantastic job replacing our wooden decking for composite. There were a few hiccups with the delivery of materials from a third party but we were kept informed all the time. We are totally happy with the end result & would not hesitate to recommend FirstlightLandscaping Landscaping to anyone

FirstLight Landscaping are a good company to work with when you're looking for a competent landscaping company that can project manage really well. We were looking to refresh the garden, as how we use the space is functionally different than the previous owners of our home. With FLL's designs (via Neal), we were able to discuss and alter them as often as we needed. When we eventually got to the work actually beginning (on Liam's side), their team were really flexible, and allowed us to add or change things in the design when we realised other needs for the space. Also, Ian and Rich, who worked on-site for the duration of the project, were lovely people who did great work, and knew a lot from their own experience, that helped inform when there were potentially better design choices. Overall, FLL are a trustworthy company, and I'd be happy to use their services again if the chance came up.

The FirstLight team were great from start to finish. We wanted a patio doing after having some work done on the house - Neal was really helpful with ideas, designs and advising on ways to keep to budget. All of the team were extremely professional and friendly. Most importantly we’ve been really impressed with the quality of their work. It has been finished to a really high standard. They kept the site as tidy as possible. We were also away on holiday for some of the work and the team kept us updated with pictures and were always available to chat to if needed. Would highly recommend!

We were absolutely delighted with the superb job Richard Austin did in designing our beautiful new garden. He closely consulted with us throughout the process, listening carefully to all of our specific requirements - whether with regards to plants and features, or budget and timescales - and offered thoughtful guidance and expertise. Once the final designs were produced - during which time Richard regularly consulted with us and took in our feedback - Richard successfully project managed the hard landscaping which (due to geographical constraints) was outsourced to another firm. He himself then did a very fast, effective and highly professional job of the planting, sourcing the plants at the best quality and price. We have been delighted by the results, the garden never ceases to draw admiring comments from visitors and is getting progressively better as the years go by. Thank you for doing such an outstanding job for us and we would have no hesitation in recommending Richard to others.

Austin's Gardens were excellent when it came to designing, landscaping and planting my garden. Richard really listened to what I wanted, came up with imaginative ideas that fit my budget, and then delivered on time with work that was neat and professional throughout. He worked with other constructors (conservatory and driveway), and was flexible and an excellent communicator. Unreservedly recommend him and his team!

What a marvellous experience from start to finish it was, working with Richard and his team to revamp my formal front garden! Richard is patient and exceedingly knowledgeable and kept me fully informed and engaged every step of the way, from concept to completion. It was a pleasure to have Richard and Lottie working here. They kept an immaculate site and were a positive pleasure to have around. Highly recommended and great bang for my buck, too!

Richard and his team transformed our overgrown space to a garden which always makes me smile whenever I see it. All the team were extremely professional and explained the process and helped us pick the plants which were low maintenance but ensure the garden looks beautiful all year throughout. Spending time in the garden today has proved a welcome escape from the wider world. I would highly recommend Austin Gardens and are now planning on getting the team to rework out back garden.

I cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful group of people. The design by John and the installation by Darren and his team was of the highest quality. My uninteresting lawn with borders and a tiny patio was transformed into something wonderful with a pergola, raised pond, large planters and patio but still with enough grass for a game of football or cricket to satisfy the grandchildren. Darren and the boys worked virtually non-stop for 5 weeks, often arriving in early morning darkness. Their attention to detail was remarkable and as the saying goes "You get what you pay for", it is worth every penny. Visitors always comment at how wonderful the garden looks. Thank you to everyone involved, especially to Darren and the boys.

Yorkshire gardens did a fantastic job for me. From the design development, the work, the planting and the finish itself the whole process was excellent. The team were professional and thorough and a joy to work with. Any issues were discussed and resolved without fuss and the end result is simply outstanding. The garden is a pleasure to be in, finished to the highest standard and it’s all thanks to the team at yorkshire gardens. I can’t recommend them enough

Yorkshire Gardens completed an extensive landscaping job for me. I couldn’t have asked for more. They went above & beyond to get the job done in the time frame promised. After care has also been amazing, anything extra needed or any question asked was always responded to. The guys working on site were very polite & hard working. John & Darren are so helpful. Can’t recommend these guys enough. Amazing job!!

John was excellent on the design, taking the time to understand our brief and coming up with a design that we were really happy with. There was clear communication throughout the process so we knew what was happening when. The Yorkshire Gardens team who did the work were brilliant. Very hard working (the build coincided with a long heat wave!) and very friendly. They didn't mind explaining what they were doing and accommodated a couple of tweaks here and there without complaint. We were delighted with the outcome and six months later that's still the case. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Yorkshire Gardens, particularly if you want the design and execution of a garden project.
