"Gordon recently completed a complete garden renovation for us in Edinburgh, installing a retaining wall with planter, sand-pit and artificial turf. Gordon's approach was well researched and methodical; skills which are very comforting to witness as a client.
We are delighted with the end result, and would thoroughly recommend Robson Landscaping to anyone considering a garden renovation."
Allan Smith, Davidson Mains, Edinburgh
"Gordon and his team have just finished our garden renovation works and what a transformation. The results have more than exceeded our expectations ... we are absolutely delighted. The old grey slabs were replaced by beautiful Lakeland sandstone, the colours of which contrast so well with the painted sleepers Gordon used to structure the whole garden. The steps he created on our sloping terracing are just a delight. The whole team worked diligently and took a lot of pride in their workmanship.Gordon's attention to detail has to be commended.
All extremely nice lads, very polite and trustworthy and we wouldn't hesitate to use their services again. Would highly recommend Robson Landscaping.
Thanks again Gordon, what a team."
Fiona Yuill, Edinburgh
"Really pleased with all the bits & pieces you've done for us, as well as the big job of the new raised beds. We are going to have lots of fun working out what to put in them, but whatever, they are going to be so much easier to keep than what we had previously. It was a big task to remove all that, and then do the construction. We've already been enjoying the extra little side patio you created in the sunny spot in the garden. It was so good to have guys you can trust and can leave to work away, knowing the job is not only going to be done well, but you'll make sure everything is left in order & tidied up when finished. We'll definitely be using your services again, and would highly recommend them to others."
Gill Morrison, Ross Road, Edinburgh
"We had a fairly small garden in two parts (a flat part plus a slope) and as its not attached immediately to our house we don't use it a lot and it has become more and more overgrown and less usable. The slope got the nickname "the jungle"as it was so overgrown.
Gordon listened to our needs and the fact we had a fairly limited budget and then formulated a plan, to make a much tidier, safer, easy to maintain space with the priority to create maximum space for our young children to play in. As he worked on clearing the garden plans evolved a bit in order to create even more space.
We are delighted with the results, we now feel we've got a tidy, safe, much more spacious space and it looks really smart to boot!! Very happy to recommend Robson Landscaping ltd!"

"We moved in to a new home last year with a mature garden. It had been looked after round the edges but a lot of the plants and trees hadn't been touched for many years. Although we tinkered round the edges the big jobs hadn't been touched and we needed a serious tidy up. We asked Gordon over and he suggested coming for one day and doing as much as he could. Between Gordon and Derek they worked solidly all day. Hedges were trimmed back, trees cut, bushes cut and removed and the garden is now looking open and full of potential. I can now see parts of the garden which were hidden by over grown bushes and I have a big border to work with which was also over grown. I was so impressed with the quality of work. Gordon and Derek were very considerate and easy to have around. Their attitude towards what they were doing was very positive and they offered ideas and suggestions for moving forward. I would thoroughly recommend them and plan to use again for other pieces of work."

He exceeded all expectations with our landscaping and large decking project with great attention to detail. He is very reliable and works to tight deadlines.

Colin Maguire, Harvest Road, Edinburgh
"Gordon Robson was our gardener for many years. I can highly recommend his work He is reliable, honest and hard working. The work he carried out was of the highest standard. We were always delighted with our garden. He often suggested improvements to the benefit of the residents."

"Gordon provided a newly designed patio layout for an area which formerly housed a greenhouse. He was helpful in the design to ensure that the slope would disperse the water and use it on the adjacent grass area. His timekeeping and work was exceptional. He and his assistant worked extremely hard throughout what was long days to get the project finished as planned. He was a pleasure to have working on my property and I would always go to him in the future for similar work. Please see photo taken of final solution which still looks the same today as when he carried it out. We were and are still delighted with the final outcome."
.Alan Pulinger, Edinburgh
"I decided to have some decking constructed in front of my french windows last summer and I am so hapy to have been put in touch with Mr Robson. The job was done in good quality wood, delivered and constructed in the time scale promised and finished to a very high standard. My decking has been admired by everyone who has seen it.
I would not hesitate to recommend this company to friends or anyone in fact who are looking for a professional, high quality piece of workmanship."
Doreen Stewart, Ratho, Edinburgh
"Initially providing garden maintenance at our previous home, Gordon did an excellent job in getting it looking especially good for our house sale.
When we moved to our new home, the substantial back garden was a steeply sloping neglected tip, littered with general rubbish from the redevelopment of the house. Gordon set about clearing the rubble and debris, levelling the garden with 24 tonnes of soil boxed in with railway sleepers (Gordon made the calculations to ensure a properly engineered structure), then preparing borders and laying lawn to give us a beautiful - and useable - outdoor space. When it also became apparent that our decking (provided by others) turned into 'a bouncy castle' as soon as you walked on it, Gordon came up with a solution which involved him crawling under the decking for hours to secure every plank. Having completed the rear garden, he went on to maintain the garden regularly (including the massive double hedge round the property, and power washing the large Monobloc driveway at the front).
Completely trustworthy (we were always happy to leave house keys with him when we went out), reliable and punctual, Gordon’s positive, helpful and friendly attitude shines through in everything he does. We would be more than happy to recommend him."

"I have known and trusted Gordon Robson for a lot of years now and he is second to none. A perfectionist and a person of great integrity. He applies these qualities with an able intellect to all he does. Even so, he always has time for a friendly chat about a client's needs and greets people with a sunny smile. His team reflect his own high standards. Gordon wonderfully restored a very large garden from being overgrown. He often did gardening for me. Then, when I moved house he rescued a water-logged lawn and turned it into a beautiful patio. There was no skimping on preparation. The thoughtfulness and skill was amazing to see. 18 months on and the result is still excellent. My husband and I heartily endorse Gordon's credibility and workmanship."
Rev and Mrs Kenny Borthwick, Currie, Edinburgh
"Gordon and his team have done a fantastic job turning our tiny concrete patio into an amazing family garden. We'd had a number of quotes but it was the immediate professionalism shown by Gordon which made us choose his team. He talked us through our options, carried out due diligence and gave us a very fair price for the effort and result. His background in structural engineering added to our confidence. The pictures say it all. The creativity to create the goals for our kids from left over wood was a real touch of class. Highly recommend. 5 Stars."
Craig Reid, Edinburgh
Gordon and the guys at Robson Landscaping ltd built a fence for me a couple of years ago after a storm blew down my old one. Gordon gave me some great advice about the type of fence I should go for to ensure that it wouldn't blow down again.
The quality of the work the guys put in was first class, the fence looks great and throughout the whole time Gordon kept me up to date with how it was progressing. Once complete you would never have known that the guys had been there, as they cleared everything away and left the garden exactly as they found it (aside from the fence obviously). Gordon also kept the joining neighbours engaged to ensure that during the disruption of a new fence being put up they were told when it would be finished and he ensured they weren't inconvenienced.
I would highly recommend Gordon and the team.
Richard Dumayne, Currie, Edinburgh
"We needed a swift solution to a storm damaged fence that left the back garden totally exposed. The work completed was a simple reflection of Gordon's attitude: safe, secure and reliable. Could not have been happier from a young man's obvious passion for delivering quality gardening solutions. Thank you."
