I've just had an old 2 metre vertical hit and miss fence removed and replaced, complete with 2 metre gate, capping rails and gravel boards, and am delighted with the result - it looks smashing!
Phil was the only quote I obtained, having looked up the East Lothian trusted trader website and seen the excellent reviews. Arranging a quote was straight-forward. Phil was very professional, knowledgeable and responsive, and when the quote came after a day or two I was very happy to accept.
I had to wait a couple of months for the install date which was a good sign as rated traders are always in demand and booked up, but when it arrived, the guys were very punctual, had all the tools, worked hard, were tidy and considerate of my property, and you could see the care and level of attention they paid to doing the job, from digging out the old concrete and using string to ensure the new fence posts were lined-up properly. Phil and his team were courteous, friendly and consummate professionals.
I'd happily use them again and recommend them.

Mitchell Landscaping has worked with us to secure our garden with beautiful planters and gates- they were incredibly knowledgable, reliable, friendly and attentive to what we wanted to achieve and gave helpful advice on how to achieve the aesthetic we wanted. The communication was fantastic and the finish of the work is fabulous, we couldn’t recommend them enough! Incredibly personable and enjoyable to work with.

My garden has been transformed and I love it! The old decking and stones were removed and a new patio and turf has been laid. The stones at the front of my house have been replaced and some shrubs added. I am so happy with the result. Phil and his team were fantastic!

Phil's team removed our old patio and other slabs in the back garden and also removed numerous large overgrown bushes. A new, larger, patio was then laid and replanting in approximately 2/3rds of the garden is to be done. They are extremely professional and pleasant to deal with. The work done is of a very high standard. We are absolutely delighted with the result and would have no hesitation in recommending them.

I hired Phil to landscape my very scruffy gravel/paved/weed-infested driveway! They clear what was there, excavated and created a beautiful driveway with gravel using a gravel stabilising system, installed drain covers, edging etc! Phil and his son did a fantastic job - 100% satisfied customer! They arrived when they said they would, kept me updated all the way through and even the snow and rain didn't delay things too much! They also trimmed my hedge and cleared the cuttings away, which was a very last minute request from me! Highly skilled at what they do, explained things to me in layman's terms, extremely tidy workers, thoughtful and friendly too! I cannot fault their work or their work ethic. Highly recommend - 5*!

Phil and his team installed a decking area for us in March 2023, everything was first class service; communication was excellent from the first email requesting a quote to keeping me up to date on what time to expect the team on the day work was taking place. The price was extremely competitive and it was clear the whole team took pride in their work. Absolutely delighted with the work and wouldn’t hesitate to approach Mitchell Landscape and Ground Care ltd for future work.

Mitchell Landscaping have created a lovely, bright paved patio area in our back garden. We are delighted with the results. The team were friendly, courteous, punctual, hard working and efficient. They cleared the old paving as they went and were clean tidy workers. They transformed the area in less than 1.5 days. PS my photo isn’t the best but when replanted around the patio, this will be a lovely sunny spot to relax and enjoy our garden in.

Phil & his team laid decking & chipping to provide us with a great useable outdoor space. Phil was excellent to deal with providing us with advice & ideas when we were unsure & a competitively priced quote. The team turned up exactly on time & worked extremely hard throughout the project, always tidying up & leaving the job spotless on completion. Decking & garden looks & feels great. A big thanks to Phil & the guys.

Phil and his boys laid a patio to the rear of our garage. They were professional on time and on budget. Phil e mailed me regularly before and during the job keeping me up to date with everything. I would recommend them for any of your landscaping or ground maintenance jobs. In this day and age it is fantastic to deal with someone who does what they say and when they are going to do it and sticks to it !! Thank you Phil.

Excellent job from start to finish. Our new fence has transformed the front garden. They removed an old wall and grubbed out some tired shrubs tidying as they progressed. The whole job was done in two days.
We'd certainly recommend them for any fencing or landscaping work.

Phil and his son put up a new boundary fence for us and we're very pleased with the end result and the excellent quality of workmanship. They took particular care with the boundary line, were helpful with advice and suggestions and in general a pleasure to deal with. No hesitation in recommending & have already given their name to a friend!

Phil has been incredibly helpful and efficient with our new build and garden preparation - the work was done on time and the bill was slightly less than the original estimate. Would thoroughly recommend.

Phil and team erected fences on both sides of our garden. We changed both the timescale and our plans, following our initial discussions, which did not phase Phil. He was very flexible, his advice was invaluable and we are delighted with the end result. The work was completed to a very high standard, everything was cleared up and the waste taken away.
The team were very professional and really did go the extra mile.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Mitchell Landscaping and would definitely use them again.

Phil and his son did a great job repairing and replacing my front garden fence after a bin lorry had driven through and destroyed it. From the start, Phil was great to communicate with and was happy to take on the job. Other companies I’d spoken to were reluctant to do the job as it was an insurance claim. The work itself was excellent and was completed quickly despite the pretty horrible weather conditions. Would happily recommend Phil’s work.
