Business Information

First established in 1988, we are a local, family owned and ran company. We carry out landscaping projects both large and small for residential clients throughout the Lothians. We undertake a variety of gardens from initial design through the whole installation process to completion. We are TREX COMPOSITE DECKING PRO INSTALLERS - see Trex.com - and fit and supply both both timber and TREX composite decks, driveways, patios, walls, turfing and artificial grass installation, fencing, gravel and all forms of soft planting.

We also maintain and manage residential and private estates. We own machinery ranging from pedestrian to ride-on mowers with collection, out front ride-on mowers and tractors with mounted mowers. We currently own a Kubota F3680 61" out front mower, a John Deere 1545 62" out front mower, a Kubota F3090 60" with flail mower, a Kubota G21 48" and a Kubota G23 48" mid mounted mowers with collection and a Kubota L4240 tractor with 12' Trimax mower attached. All mowers are operated by trained staff giving the best, professional finish.

Our eldest son Lewis joined the company in 2016 and has excelled. His younger brother Ben joined in 2019 and they will form the future of the company. Initially called Philip Mitchell Landscaping, to reflect the input and the future ownership, in 2020 we decided to change the company name. Therefore as of February 2020 the trading name of the company was changed to Mitchell Landscaping and Ground Care Limited.

The fact that this is the third time that I have engaged the services of Phil should be recommendation enough.
Given that some of my own ideas on the project were necessarily those of an amateur, Phil is diplomatic enough to put me straight without even using the word "idiotic"!
I can only endorse what others have said and would not hesitate to recommend him to any who might ask.

We've had Phil do work for us before and not only is his work and manner highly professional, his previous work has endured for years and still looks great. On this occasion we had him do a complete makeover of a sizeable rear and side garden for elderly inlaws which involved laying a lot of turf, building some fences, some decking, slabbing, raised beds and laying a lot of chips. Basically Phil completely transformed a massive area from a moss and weed ridden mess to a proper garden of incredibly high standard in about a week - even dealing admirably and diplomatically with some of the problems caused by 'lesser jobs' done for us by other tradesmen we'd had in. Cant praise Phils work highly enough - we already have plans to get him in to do some more work in future.

As Phil and his team made a great job of our back garden I had no hesitation in asking him to upgrade the front garden. Once again a great job, completed in a few days and excellent service and value for money. Happy to recommend Phil for any landscaping work you may need.

Phil is a local man with a very willing to help. Can be trusted to be left to get on with everything and consult if there is anything not completely clear.

Very hard working and completed the whole job of revamping my from garden in under 3 days! Left everything tidy& my husband and I were very satisfied with the whole job.

Have used Phil before and was my first thought when wishing to do the garden.

I had a clear idea of what I wanted to achieve with our front garden, and had drawn a scale plan - but I had no idea whether it was practical. At all stages, Phil listened to my ideas, offered constructive and practical suggestions and ultimately through his skill and hard work, turned my plan into a reality. I really appreciated Phil's time in discussing materials, options and solutions to some of the unforeseen issues that cropped up, and felt that he was focussed on giving us the garden we wanted - at no time did I feel as though anything was too much trouble. Communication was excellent at all times - from the first site visit to the end of the project, and he was totally reliable. Overall the quality of the hard landscaping is very good and the price was fair and competitive with other companies who quoted for the work.

Philip and crew removed existing planting, which was considerable, replaced existing fencing, installed a new deck and new border planting.

On time, on budget, perfect job! I would recommend Philip Mitchell without any reservation. Great to get a job done exactly as it said on the tin.

Phil has transformed our front garden by replacing the gravel, grass and old fencing. We are delighted with the results and have had many compliments from neighbours. Phil was punctual, well organised and good humoured. He was happy to give advice re the design, and had the ability to resolve existing garden problems. We would definitely use him again and would highly recommend him and his team.

Phil was contacted to give a quote for garden works to allow access to the garden for someone with limited mobility. He arrived on time and was pleasant and courteous throughout. He provided sound advice on the best materials to use and suggestions to enhance access. He managed to start earlier than anticipated and he and the boys worked hard each day to achieve great results. They were always on time and tidy and have done a great job in a short timescale. Would definitely recommend them.

We employed Phil Mitchell landscaping limited to replace a garden gate.
The work was completed to a very high standard. The garden gate was designed and constructed on site. We are very pleased with finished look of the job, not only with the new gate but also the sturdy new gate posts and partial fencing work.
This is the second time we have engaged this company to complete projects in our property and we have found Phil and his sons to have a very high standard of workmanship which is always consistent. They take a pride in their work and this shows in the finished job.

We were let down by a previous gardener but when we explained to Phil that we had grandchildren and were desperate to get turf laid so they could get out to play, we were really grateful that he managed to fit us in and did an excellent job. Many thanks to him and his son.

Our back garden had become unmanageable and badly needed a makeover. Thanks to Phil & son garden is now habitable and has renewed our enthusiasm for gardening. Phil is coming back to complete some suggestions he made. No hesitation in recommending PMLL for your landscaping work.

We engaged PML to totally redesign, and replace decking in the rear garden. Phil and his son carried out the work in a very professional manner. They arrived on time each day and completed the job on the date specified. All the old decking was removed from the site and the garden was left neat and tidy. The finished work exceeded our expectations.
They had really good innovative ideas for the design, our favourite being the beautifully built large planters.
The invoice was actually under the quote which shows the honesty of the contractor and we would have no hesitation in recommending this business.

Driveway paving and new timber fence. Designed new shaped front driveway. Prepared surface and removed old driveway paving. Lay geotextile membrame to full area and installed 107 square metres of Stone Market Trident pavers, edging and soak away pebbles to front garden. Removed old and built new two step rectangle platform to front door. Erected new timber fence.

Phil helped us plan our new front driveway and took on board what we wanted. He was approachable and helpful and the job completed exceeded our original expectations.

Phil and his men worked exceptionally hard, during a below zero temperatures. Phil and his men were punctual, experienced in what they were doing. Excellent co-ordination with other contractors involving machinery and equipment.

We now have a superb large driveway, big enough for 3 or more vehicles. Very happy with the professional finish, attention to detail with job done within price and timescales.

Laying of paved seating area creating three deep raised beds with soil and area of decking. General clearing and removing of old shrubs.

All work done quickly and efficiently in less time than quoted. Kept informed of progress and no changes made without consultation. All done with good humour and professionalism, good timekeeping and steady work.

On completion, at no extra cost, Philip ordered and fitted support wires for climbers.
