“We could not be happier about our experience of working with Langdale Landscapes. From design, to budgeting, to project management and implementation, Nik and his team of merry men were excellent. Costs were transparent, communications prompt and on-point and the execution thoroughly professional in every aspect. Langdale accepted our (somewhat late) challenge of turning a construction site into an oasis and emphatically delivered. The crew worked hard in some terrible conditions to perform garden alchemy. We are delighted. Thank you Langdale! Special mention to unsung hero Dan, whose attention to detail inspired confidence and ensured everything ran smoothly from our perspective.”

“We have used Langdale for a very large ongoing project which has included a lot of both hard landscaping and soft landscaping. We have and continue to split the project into phases and Nik and his team have been fantastic throughout the journey. All the guys on site have been very courteous, professional and thorough. Any queries or issues have always been dealt with quickly and efficiently. We cannot fault their expertise through design, implementation and completion, even the aftercare too. Looking forward to completing the final phase soon!”

“We couldn’t be happier with Langdale landscapes who built us our dream garden. The design, execution and attention to detail was meticulous, and the results speak for themselves. Not only was the garden finished to an extremely high standard, nothing was too much trouble. Their ideas were innovative and they accommodated my many changes of mind! The whole team was a pleasure to work with from the guys on site through to the office staff and owners of the company. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you for building us our dream garden.”

“We have asked Langdale to do various garden projects at our home over the last 15 years. Each project has been carried out in a thoroughly professional manner, resulting in an absolutely beautiful garden, that our large family enjoys in every season.
Nik’s experienced leadership ensures that his excellent team get the job done properly, whether it is perfect paving, a new terrace, a sunken trampoline, building a covered outdoor entertaining space, creating a lawn as smooth as a bowling green or replanting an existing garden.
Langdale may not be the cheapest option, but as we have learnt from experience, you get what you pay for.
We would not hesitate to use Langdale again & probably will!”
— Langdale Landscapes clients in Chiddingstone, whom we have carried out various projects over the years.
“From beginning to end Nik and his team were a first class outfit. The sleek modern design incorporating the most stunning materials fits in harmoniously with our home. From the design concept, to building phase, planting scheme, project management and completion everyone was extremely knowledgeable and professional and we were consulted at every stage to ensure we were happy with developments. It’s hard to imagine that what was once a garden area with a large derelict pool is now a beautiful contemporary outdoor space that looks fantastic all year round.
We love what Langdale has created for us and are sure if you give them a chance you will do too.”

“Nik and his team at Langdale have transformed our garden . From the first meeting to discuss the design concept, though to its finalisation and the 3 month build out , they were brilliant and so professional. I would recommend them to anyone considering landscaping or related work privately or commercially. It was actually a pleasure having his team on site .They are fantastic craftsmen, really care about what they do, listen to your thoughts, are very helpful and polite and always tided up at the end of each day.”
— Langdale Landscapes clients in Sevenoaks. We transformed the existing lawn and greenhouse into the ultimate summer relaxation garden, complete with pool, oak framed pool house and pergola.
