5 Best Landscaping Companies in London (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Brad Smith, Home Services Expert · ✓ Data verified July 2026 · 8 min read

Your garden looked fine in the estate agent's photos. Then you moved in and found patchy turf, a fence leaning into next door, and a corner that's been mud since October, which is where landscaping companies in London come in, with ratings on this shortlist running a tight 4.8 to a perfect 5.0 across nearly 700 combined reviews.

Short answer: My Lovely Lawn London leads with a perfect 5.0 average across 197 reviews, the strongest combination of rating and volume on this list. GreenFellas Garden Fencing North London (4.8, 230 reviews) and Meristem Design (5.0, 87 reviews) round out the top three, though GreenFellas leans toward fencing work and Meristem toward larger community and commercial greening projects rather than typical back-garden makeovers.

GreenFellas Garden Fencing North London

4.8230 Google reviews

GreenFellas is a North London fencing contractor covering Camden, Islington, Haringey, Enfield, Hackney, Barnet, and Brent, specializing in new fence installs, repairs, and wooden gates. Google also lists them under landscape design, but their own site and reviews focus almost entirely on fencing, right down to custom touches like small gaps cut into gravel boards so hedgehogs can pass through gardens.

What people praise

Highest review count on this list at 230, with a 4.8 average holding steady at that volume
Solves awkward site problems, like fence lines that were never straight to begin with
Prompt scheduling and clear communication praised across multiple reviews
Same lead contact from quote through to finish

Worth knowing

Specializes in fencing, not full landscaping or planting, worth confirming scope if you need more than a boundary

Our take: We rank GreenFellas second on the strength of its volume and consistency, but it's the narrowest specialist here. If your project is mainly a new fence, this is the strongest option on the page; if you need a full garden redesign, pair it with a broader landscaper.

Our take: Meristem's rating is flawless, but the review volume is the lowest of the top three and its recent work is mostly community and commercial projects. Worth a call if your interest is sustainable, design-led landscaping rather than a standard residential job.

How we score

Rating is each company’s live Google average. Review volume measures how many customers have left a rating, benchmarked against other landscaping companies in London. Confidence blends the two, so a high rating on a small sample scores lower than the same rating on hundreds of reviews. Recency checks how recently people are still leaving reviews, since a company that was great five years ago isn’t guaranteed to be great today. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much does landscaping cost in London (2026)?

Landscaping costs in London swing hard based on scope. A lawn refresh or small planting job costs far less than a full garden redesign with paving, decking, or drainage work, and access, like whether materials can reach the garden without going through the house, changes labor time significantly. Get itemized quotes from at least two of the companies above before committing, since most price per project rather than per hour.

Serving all of London

The companies on this list collectively cover most of Greater London, from Wandsworth and Kensington in the south and west to Camden, Islington, Haringey, and Enfield in the north. If you’re searching for a landscaper near me in London, start with whichever company already works your postcode, most offer a free initial site visit before quoting.

What to ask before you hire a landscaping company

Is the quote fixed-price or estimated, and what could change the final cost?
Who handles waste removal and skip hire, is it included?
What’s the realistic timeline, including any weather-dependent stages?
Will the same crew be on site for the full job, or subcontracted out?
Is there a workmanship guarantee on hard landscaping like patios or decking?
Can they show photos of a completed project similar in size to yours?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these five landscaping companies?

We compared landscaping companies across London using live Google ratings, review volume, and how recently customers are still reviewing them, then weighed those against what each business actually specializes in.

How often is this list updated?

This page reflects Google data verified in July 2026. We recheck ratings and review counts periodically as they change.

Do I need a full landscaping company, or just a gardener?

If the job is hard landscaping, like decking, paving, drainage, or a full redesign, a landscaping company is the right call. For routine mowing, hedge trimming, or planting maintenance, a gardener is usually cheaper.

Should I get multiple quotes?

Yes. Pricing for landscaping work varies significantly by company and by how a project is scoped, so getting two or three quotes for anything beyond a small job is worth the extra week.

The bottom line

My Lovely Lawn is the safest default for a full residential landscaping job in London, given its perfect rating at real volume. If you specifically need fencing, GreenFellas is the stronger specialist; just don’t expect either to double as the other.
