Business Information
First established in 1988, we are a local, family owned and ran company. We carry out landscaping projects both large and small for residential clients throughout the Lothians. We undertake a variety of gardens from initial design through the whole installation process to completion. We are TREX COMPOSITE DECKING PRO INSTALLERS - see Trex.com - and fit and supply both both timber and TREX composite decks, driveways, patios, walls, turfing and artificial grass installation, fencing, gravel and all forms of soft planting.
We also maintain and manage residential and private estates. We own machinery ranging from pedestrian to ride-on mowers with collection, out front ride-on mowers and tractors with mounted mowers. We currently own a Kubota F3680 61" out front mower, a John Deere 1545 62" out front mower, a Kubota F3090 60" with flail mower, a Kubota G21 48" and a Kubota G23 48" mid mounted mowers with collection and a Kubota L4240 tractor with 12' Trimax mower attached. All mowers are operated by trained staff giving the best, professional finish.
Our eldest son Lewis joined the company in 2016 and has excelled. His younger brother Ben joined in 2019 and they will form the future of the company. Initially called Philip Mitchell Landscaping, to reflect the input and the future ownership, in 2020 we decided to change the company name. Therefore as of February 2020 the trading name of the company was changed to Mitchell Landscaping and Ground Care Limited.

Phil created a patio in my back garden and the work was first class. He did a great job for me, I would recommend his work. His son worked with him and this lad worked away all day with a lovely smile always on his face.
Thank you Phil for a great job.

We had a decking area, new garden gate and raised beds put in. We also had the surround for out patio replaced, an edge made to our lawn, numerous bushes pruned and new plants put in the raised beds. The quality of the work done by Phil and his son was excellent. From the outset, the communication from Phil was great. He talked through the job with us and throughout the work he updated and discussed it with us. All for a reasonable cost. We are very happy with how our garden now looks. We would definitely recommend Phil to anyone and we will definitely use him and his son again.

Quality, Quality, Quality.
Front Garden :- Built new step to front door, redesigned pathway and landscaped other areas.
Back Garden :- Replaced old existing fence with new redesigned fence, built new step to back door, redesigned path and landscaped surrounding areas.
The transformation in my gardens is outstanding.
Quality workmanship by quality tradesmen. Phil and Lewis have made a rather drab garden into something to be proud of. Solid fence with quality hand built gates and beautiful sandstone pathways
Quality communication at all times from Phil (vital when in the hands of the weather gods). Nothing was rushed, no corners cut and a quality finish that made parting with money slightly more bearable.
If you are looking for quality gardening or landscaping work to be carried out, look no further.
Oh! - did I mention my overriding reaction to work completed? - Quality. Go nowhere else.

We have had our front garden landscaped and raised beds installed. The garden has been made more manageable with the work done to the highest standard. The workers were very polite, punctual and worked hand in hand with our requirements. The guys were very easy to talk to and kept us informed about how the job was doing. A very very good experience.

Maintenance to a high standard of the extensive grounds of a Grade A listed mansion house. The work carried out was mainly grass cutting of large areas of lawn but included weed control, trimming of shrubbery and pruning of roses as well as some light building work.
We found the company very reliable, helpful and pleasant to deal with. They are quick to respond to queries and show a flexible approach when needed.

Phil and Lewis transformed an ugly duckling wall into a thing of beauty, which has also transformed our garden. We were consulted, offered ideas and choices on what might work best and given excellent recommendations and advice, both on the material and installation.
We were stunned at the end result, and also at the speed of the work. Our garden was spic and span on completion, and an extra request was accommodated. The final invoice was less than the quote..........what more can we say! Highly recommend and we hope they'll be back to ours soon for further works.

Landscaping of rear garden.
This is the second time we have used Phil’s company, the first being the removal and erection of a fence for the rear garden.
We are over the moon with the work carried out by Phil and Lewis.
The first area improved was a play area for our grand children, new decking laid and raised bed to keep play bark in place.
Secondly, a substantial paved and decked patio area was installed the length of the house with paved steps leading down to a corner area still to be developed.
All the work was done to a very high standard from clearing away all old slabbing and plants etc to preparing the new areas and the planting of new shrubs etc.
We would highly recommend this company.

Taking down of an existing fence, supply and erection of a new one.
Having had good reports of his work from neighbours we asked Phil to quote for the renewal of a section of our garden fencing. He assessed the job the next day, provided an acceptable quotation the following day and fitted us into his future work schedule.
The work started as planned with a Q & A session to ensure we were happy with the scope and completed efficiently and timeously. The worksite was cleared of old fencing and left in a clean and tidy condition. Altogether, a job very well done by a diligent, polite and professional team.
Unsurprisingly, based on this performance we would be happy to use MLGC again and recommend them to others.

Phil constructed a raised decking platform for our sun house and added adjacent raised beds with sourced garden plants. Once again Phil has exceeded our expectations with his expertise and attention to detail. The corner plot is transformed. His prices are reasonable and he is charming to deal with. We can highly recommend him to you.
We’re so happy we have asked him to quote for a further job.
Thank you M&J

Removal of inadequate boundary fencing & substitution of higher and more substantial fencing involving installation of posts.
Removal of inner fence boundary at far end of garden & re-ordering of such fence on a revised line followed by laying of slabs to await erection thereon of a new potting shed.
Altering positioning of existing garden shed in another corner of the garden to permit access to rear and side which were formerly precluded.
All this was achieved in quite hard February weather conditions and the trader took it upon himself to hose down our rather muddy patio upon completion of the works.
We were impressed by this trader as soon as we met him. He is clearly well experienced in his business and able to advise knowledgeably. He proved adaptable to varying the work slightly to accommodate our revised instructions and highly competent in carrying out the work whilst keeping us informed throughout in a friendly and unfailingly courteous manner.
