I have been using this company regularly for around 6 years and prior to that every now and again for one-off jobs like shrub clearing. In the last 6 years they have carried out grass cutting, laying new turf, trimming shrubs,
spreading mulch over borders, applying weedkiller where necessary,
erecting new fence posts and recently scarifying my grass and applying a moss killer. Communication is excellent. My late mother also used them for many years. I am very happy with Nicholas Hill Gardening.

Review Comments
I had nothing short of a jungle at the front / street side of my flat. Some of it was very awkward, dense and extremely jagged type of stuff.
The two guys came at the time they said they would and set about it. They chopped down everything we had agreed when Nick was doing the estimate. They removed all the stuff to their vans and trailers for going to the dump and cleaned up all the small loose stuff as well. They put in a near 3 hour non stop graft. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. I would DEFINITELY recommend them to anyone for gardening work.
Thank you lads for a very professional job.
P.S. The only downside was that I have full length , wide, glass windows and with the “ jungle “ gone it showed up just how dirty the windows were! They hadn’t been washed for a long time. I did them all the day after the gardening job.

He we are again reviewing the excellent work carried out again by Nick Hill.

We had a slightly complex replacement fence issue and the requirement to replace a garden gate as well. Nick assesed what was required. He provided me with a comprehensive quotation and carried out the works to my entire satisfaction.

I have no hesitation in recommending Nick or engaging his professional services in the future.

Old broken path removed and replaced with new slabs and drainage. The new path looks good and after a return visit to fix a slight drainage issue the path is draining well. Nick turned up when he said he would has always responded promptly to enquiries.

Pruning of two plum trees and a hypericum bush.

The two guys from Nicholas Hill Garden Construction did a good job. Quick, quiet, tidy, skilled; everything you'd want from a garden service. Followed our COVID-19 related requests faultlessly.

Price was fair rather than 'cheap', hence the 4 stars rather than 5. But happy to pay for quality service.

I have no hesitation in recommending his company.

Review Comments
My mother and I have known Nick for over fifteen years. We first used his services at my Mother's large garden house in Colinton. Nick kept the garden under control for her.

When she down sized to her house in Fairmilehead straight away we engaged Nick to bring the tired garden under control. We also had areas of work that required his input and action. This included removing an old tree and replacing a dangerous shared fence between neighbours.

We have continued to use Nick over the years and we regard him as "Best in Class" for the quality of work and affordability.

The most recent scope of work was to widen a tight driveway by moving a section of garden wall using matching materials to our entire satisfaction.

I have no hesitation in recommending Nick and his team for any garden design, repairs or maintenance.

Repairs to garage path; complete clearance of border at side of garage path, new top soil supplied and laid, slabs laid in border.
This is the second time I have used Nicholas Hill, and I find him, and his men, reliable and effective. I will certainly use his firm again when need arises, and would recommend him for any similar work.

This is the second job Nick has done for me. He landscaped my front garden a few years ago and I was, and still am, delighted with it so when I wanted work done in my back garden I went to Nick again. Once more very happy. He is friendly and efficient and has done just what I wanted. No trouble, no mess and a great result.

I had a tricky fence repair that needed to be done. Nick came out and gave a reasonable quote which I decided to go with. I was able to get the fence panels delivered before works started as it allowed me to paint them in the garage. His employees turned up on time & got the job done in no time at all. They were clean, efficient & polite. Would definitely recommend them & use again.

We needed a new fence & some trellis panels put up. I had been let down by several other firms before contacting Nick but from the outset he proved to be reliable & professional and was honest about timescales for any work starting. Ronan & Mark completed the work with good advice on my options and with amazing attention to detail. They were a treat to have around, left the place immaculate and even replaced the patio table and chairs before I saw the work finished for the first time which was a lovely touch. We are delighted with the outcome & will definitely be calling Nick for future work.

We had a garden fence installed recently by Nick Hill Garden Construction and are very happy with the work and the advice we received from Nick in choosing something suitable for our garden. Communication was excellent, and Nick and the team were friendly and professional throughout. They were punctual on the day and left the garden tidy when the work was complete. I will certainly return to Nick for any further big jobs in the garden.
