Business Information
Landscaping
First established 38 years ago, 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. We also design and build fences, driveways, patios, walls, turfing and artificial grass installation, gravel and all forms of soft planting.
Grounds Maintenance Contracting
We maintain the grounds of many residential and private estates. We own all of our machinery ranging from pedestrian to ride-on mowers with collection, out front ride-on mowers and tractors with mounted mowers.
We currently own two Kubota 61" out front mowers, a John Deere 62" out front mower, a Kubota with 60" flail mower and three Kubota 48" mowers with collection. We also own a Kubota 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.

Phil created a patio in my back garden and the work was first class. He did a great job for me, I would recommend his work. His son worked with him and this lad worked away all day with a lovely smile always on his face.
Thank you Phil for a great job.

We had a decking area, new garden gate and raised beds put in. We also had the surround for out patio replaced, an edge made to our lawn, numerous bushes pruned and new plants put in the raised beds. The quality of the work done by Phil and his son was excellent. From the outset, the communication from Phil was great. He talked through the job with us and throughout the work he updated and discussed it with us. All for a reasonable cost. We are very happy with how our garden now looks. We would definitely recommend Phil to anyone and we will definitely use him and his son again.

Quality, Quality, Quality.
Front Garden :- Built new step to front door, redesigned pathway and landscaped other areas.
Back Garden :- Replaced old existing fence with new redesigned fence, built new step to back door, redesigned path and landscaped surrounding areas.
The transformation in my gardens is outstanding.
Quality workmanship by quality tradesmen. Phil and Lewis have made a rather drab garden into something to be proud of. Solid fence with quality hand built gates and beautiful sandstone pathways
Quality communication at all times from Phil (vital when in the hands of the weather gods). Nothing was rushed, no corners cut and a quality finish that made parting with money slightly more bearable.
If you are looking for quality gardening or landscaping work to be carried out, look no further.
Oh! - did I mention my overriding reaction to work completed? - Quality. Go nowhere else.

We have had our front garden landscaped and raised beds installed. The garden has been made more manageable with the work done to the highest standard. The workers were very polite, punctual and worked hand in hand with our requirements. The guys were very easy to talk to and kept us informed about how the job was doing. A very very good experience.

Maintenance to a high standard of the extensive grounds of a Grade A listed mansion house. The work carried out was mainly grass cutting of large areas of lawn but included weed control, trimming of shrubbery and pruning of roses as well as some light building work.
We found the company very reliable, helpful and pleasant to deal with. They are quick to respond to queries and show a flexible approach when needed.

Phil and Lewis transformed an ugly duckling wall into a thing of beauty, which has also transformed our garden. We were consulted, offered ideas and choices on what might work best and given excellent recommendations and advice, both on the material and installation.
We were stunned at the end result, and also at the speed of the work. Our garden was spic and span on completion, and an extra request was accommodated. The final invoice was less than the quote..........what more can we say! Highly recommend and we hope they'll be back to ours soon for further works.

Landscaping of rear garden.
This is the second time we have used Phil’s company, the first being the removal and erection of a fence for the rear garden.
We are over the moon with the work carried out by Phil and Lewis.
The first area improved was a play area for our grand children, new decking laid and raised bed to keep play bark in place.
Secondly, a substantial paved and decked patio area was installed the length of the house with paved steps leading down to a corner area still to be developed.
All the work was done to a very high standard from clearing away all old slabbing and plants etc to preparing the new areas and the planting of new shrubs etc.
We would highly recommend this company.

Taking down of an existing fence, supply and erection of a new one.
Having had good reports of his work from neighbours we asked Phil to quote for the renewal of a section of our garden fencing. He assessed the job the next day, provided an acceptable quotation the following day and fitted us into his future work schedule.
The work started as planned with a Q & A session to ensure we were happy with the scope and completed efficiently and timeously. The worksite was cleared of old fencing and left in a clean and tidy condition. Altogether, a job very well done by a diligent, polite and professional team.
Unsurprisingly, based on this performance we would be happy to use MLGC again and recommend them to others.

Phil constructed a raised decking platform for our sun house and added adjacent raised beds with sourced garden plants. Once again Phil has exceeded our expectations with his expertise and attention to detail. The corner plot is transformed. His prices are reasonable and he is charming to deal with. We can highly recommend him to you.
We’re so happy we have asked him to quote for a further job.
Thank you M&J

Removal of inadequate boundary fencing & substitution of higher and more substantial fencing involving installation of posts.
Removal of inner fence boundary at far end of garden & re-ordering of such fence on a revised line followed by laying of slabs to await erection thereon of a new potting shed.
Altering positioning of existing garden shed in another corner of the garden to permit access to rear and side which were formerly precluded.
All this was achieved in quite hard February weather conditions and the trader took it upon himself to hose down our rather muddy patio upon completion of the works.
We were impressed by this trader as soon as we met him. He is clearly well experienced in his business and able to advise knowledgeably. He proved adaptable to varying the work slightly to accommodate our revised instructions and highly competent in carrying out the work whilst keeping us informed throughout in a friendly and unfailingly courteous manner.

Had an old fence removed and new one installed, which included replacing and cutting some large concrete flags. Philip arrived at the time that he specified to give his estimate, and we were kept fully informed throughout the process. Again, he arrived as specified to carry out the works, all of which were carried out in a professional manner. After completion, all of the debris was taken away and the site left tidy. Great job completed, and I would not hesitate to recommend Philip and his company to anyone.

The fence at the rear of my property was rotten. It was fronted by Leylandii which were there when we moved in 34 years. Phil arranged for a a firm of tree surgeons to remove the trees and then he and his team removed and erected a new 2m high fence. Everything went smoothly, the site left tidy and the cost was less than expected. Well happy.

We had our garden enclosed ( including steps) with fencing and a log store built.
Philip turned up when he said he would to survey the job, had the quote to us within days and kept us informed of the start date and arrived promptly on the agreed date.
We are delighted with the quality of his work and advice which helped us resolve some of the design challenges.
Philip handled negotiations with neighbours with diplomacy and professionalism. And the bill reflected the simplified work carried out based on Philip’s suggestions.
Will definitely be using his services again

Phil and his team built a driveway and completely landscaped the back garden.
From the beginning Phil was punctual and provided good advice and feedback on our plans.
Once work started Phil incorporated a modification request from myself with no trouble.
The end result being a fine looking driveway and low maintenance, great looking back garden, both finished to a high standard.
I can't recommend Phil enough and will definitely be seeking Phil's services for more work we have planned.

I had new fencing and a redesign of the rear garden done. The garden now boasts a pergola, a mixture of raised and regular flower beds, artificial grass, which has been edged with cobbled stones and new paving. Phil and his boys were reliable, professional and hardworking. They were friendly and remained good humoured despite working in some pretty awful weather conditions.
I would recommend Phil and his team.

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.

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.

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.

A new build garden on a horrendous slope! Garden was terraced with artificial grass, decking, planters and paving. Fences either erected or made private: Philip and his men worked tirelessly. Philip made the plan for the garden and it looks wonderful. The builder left an awful slope but the garden is now level. I can now maintain the garden thanks to them. It is lovely and my grandchildren love it too! Thank you.

Prepared a new build house garden which was just soil and made a paved patio and path all round the house, pebble borders and a slated and pebble maintenance free feature design in the back garden: Phil was really helpful and professional at every point in the process. I was a bit of a nuisance client having not done a garden before and having only just moved in, I hadn't fully thought through my plans at the outset, and as a result I had quite a few questions and changes to request as things occurred to me. Phil was so polite and patient throughout and re-drafted the plans to suit using his excellent knowledge of the construction practicalities and his good eye for design to produce a garden which is both functional and attractive. I am absolutely delighted with the result. The work was done on time and without any mess or disruption. I had absolutely no worries about leaving the firm to do the work while I was in the office. I would definitely recommend.

Clear rear garden of decking, paving and associated materials. To lay a sandstone patio and access path. To lay an artificial lawn to complete area. To lay bark and pebbles to borders: Work was due to be started when we would be on holiday. Phil visited prior to our holiday to discuss exact work to be done. Arrived back and was delighted at work already done. Garden is now exactly as we wanted it. Visitors have all admired the work. We were especially pleased with the disguising of some very ugly manhole covers.

Changing my front garden from grass to gravel: Philip was very informative when he first came to look at the job and took time to explain the options available and the pros and cons of each. They arrived on time and completed the job professionally and to a very high standard. He was very considerate to my neighbours and made sure the surrounding area was cleaned up before he left. I am delighted with the work and the professional manner in which it was undertaken.

Professional, neat and tidy. We are delighted with the finished look and would call upon his services any time in the future.
