    Can’t recommend them enough

    Posted 07 January

    Chris from GDL did a fantastic job in replacing a garden gate for my elderly parents. From a quick response to a super professional job, going above and beyond to help them. I chose GDL because of the excellent reviews and they certainly lived up to them. Can’t recommend them enough.

    GDL Landscaping Ltd have done a fantastic job, they renewed my garden fence and landscaped the garden. It now looks great and the work done was extremely impressive. I was very happy with the quote given and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a professional, quality landscaping job. Thanks to GDL 😀

    Thank you to GDL Landscaping!

    Posted 26 November 2025

    When our fence fell victim to Storm Claudia, GDL Landscaping were quick to step in and help. As soon as I put the call out on Checkatrade, they were responsive and reassuring. They came out quickly to give us an accurate and extremely reasonable quote, and the whole experience from start to finish was brilliant. And their work is fantastic! We’re absolutely loving the new fence (it’s such an improvement on the last one!). Beyond the quality of their work, they were kind, polite and genuinely understanding throughout. It’s clear they take real pride in what they do. 100% recommend!

We are a relatively new company, set up by two experienced landscapers and fencers, who wanted to go it alone. As a small company we are able to work with customers and find a lot more flexibility to assist the customer and their needs. Our core services are Landscaping, Fencing, flagging, brick/blockwork, and patios. However no job is too small.


We understand the pressures of the current cost of living crisis, indeed we too have families, so with this in mind we will always work with customers to get to the desired finish within budgets. We will always be guided by you.


As a trading company we realise the importance of the local economy and always try to source materials from companies within a short distance from ourselves. Having close relationships with our local suppliers gives us more flexibility throughout.


And finally, myself Dave and my expert paver Ryan are laser focussed on the personal touch. We will ensure we deliver the right job, at the right price, in a friendly and professional manner.
