Award–winning landscaping

Elmtree have now carried out extensive garden renovations at two properties I owned. They are amazingly talented and I've been incredibly pleased with the results. One property involved building into a cliff. It wasn't easy but it looked amazing and gave us tremendous views overlooking Clevedon Pier. Thanks to all the staff involved. Would certainly have no hesitation in recommending.

I have worked with the Elmtree team on a number of projects over the past 12 months and it’s been a pleasure watching my designs come to life through their hard work on some very challenging sites. Highly recommended and I look forward to working with them on future projects.

Samantha Brown

Elmtree did a fantastic job installing a garden fence at our property. The workforce were very pleasant and professional. They went above and beyond by removing an old tree stump that we had been unable to move for years! Would definitely recommend Elmtree Garden Contractors and will be definitely using their services in the future.

Lisa Hooper

Elmtree were very responsive to emails and came back to me with a quote and final plan within a week of contact. Had a great range of materials and design options which showed me great knowledge.Men who carried out work were professional and very respectful of COVId guidelines.We are very happy with the project Elmtree completed for us and every quest we have comments on how lovely our garden is. Would recommend.

Random review as I haven’t had any work done by this company. But in an age where people are so quick to leave a bad review, I believe in doing the same with good reviews!I’m on the motorway and there weresome really large items in the middle lane. Cars were slowing and going round the hazard.The Elmtree van, stopped and took it upon themselves to clear the road.Good deed done and could have saved someone from an accident!If I was looking for a garden contractor, that’s the proactive and decent attitude I’d be looking for!

It's no wonder that Mahonia × media 'Winter Sun' is one of our top picks for winter colour!

With its stunning array of green and yellow leaves, bright yellow flowers, and blue-black berries, this plant truly stands out.

Preferring full sun or partial shade, it typically blooms from November to March, although this year it started flowering early! We frequently choose this plant for our clients’ show areas, and with our expertise, we can recommend a variety of plants to keep your sales arena looking fantastic all year round!

While the grass may stop growing in winter, our grounds maintenance teams stay busy tackling other important tasks, like clearing large areas.

This week, two of our teams worked for a land management client, clearing vegetation to prepare for a new development using the AS 1000 Ovis RC flail.

Just look at how effortlessly it handles the vegetation!
