Lakeland Gardens are passionate about restoring gardens to their former glory, and fullgarden restoration is one of the specialistservices we provide. Breathing new life into aneglected garden or landscape requires skill,knowledge and imagination and we are proudthat for over ten years we have been realisingthe true potential of many of the area’s finestgardens. Our work has helped clients win overtwenty In Bloom Awards and some have evenbecome members of the national Open Garden scheme.
Within our team of horticulturists, gardeners, landscapers, and tree surgeons we have vast knowledge on what works and more importantly, what doesn’t in our climate and always consider the environmental impact and long-term goals of our work. From rediscovering lost heritage and original design features to restoring wildflower meadows or even encouraging flowering from plants put in many years ago, Lakeland Gardens can complete all aspects of garden restoration.

How our Garden Restoration service works


Initially, we will gain an understanding of the garden through on-site visits and talking through your expectations with you. We then plan what features are to be retained, restored, removed, or replaced. Professional drawings which show both planting and landscaping designs are created and agreed before we implement an efficient, effective, and achievable restoration plan for the garden or landscape in a set timeline.
On completion we can put together a schedule of regular garden maintenance visits to keep the garden looking its best all year.
Arboriculture
All our tree services from pruning to tree felling are carried out by highly qualified, experienced tree surgeons with over 20 years of combined experience.


Tree Work
Our tree surgeons use the latest tree maintenance equipment, are qualified to the nationally recognised standard: BS3998, operate in accordance with all current Health & Safety legislation and are fully insured.
Our teams are skilled not only at removing, maintaining, and preserving existing trees but can also recommend and supply beautiful mature and established trees when needed. With years of professional tree surgeon experience Lakeland Gardens are well accustomed to Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) and conservation area restrictions. Our practised team can even apply to the relevant authorities on behalf of our clients if these restrictions apply.
Our tree surgeons have extensive qualifications including NPTC chainsaw licenses, NC Arb (national certificate in arboriculture), climbing certificates and chapter 8 traffic management certificates.
