Testimonials

I have been employing contractors for almost 50 years to carry out projects in my house and garden, and can say that Simon Scott Landscaping would be in the front rank of all of those companies. Simon’s attention to detail in the planning and design process was outstanding, and that underpinned the smooth way in which the project was carried out. Simon and Richard worked hard in every kind of weather. When they came up against a problem, they never complained but always found a way to overcome it. They kept us fully informed all the time about what decisions would be needed and when, and they were a pleasure to host in our garden. The result is a new garden that we are delighted with. We keep on asking ourselves now why we took so long to decide to do this project, given the lovely transformation that he has created. David, Client, East Sussex

I am absolutely delighted with the completion of the new garden. Our site was a tricky one with a large amount of concrete found at the top of the slope, down the slope and around the large area of the swimming pool. Simon and the team put a huge amount of work into turning the design into reality with great attention to detail. I am absolutely delighted with the outcome of the work and all has resulted as intended. Fantastic Work! Nicola, Client, Poynings, West Sussex

Simon Scott Landscaping has build many of my designs to a very high standard. Clients always have lovely things to say about him and his team, and they are always delighted with his work ethic and his attention to detail. He always stays in touch throughout the build to allow me opportunity to troubleshoot and make any necessary edits. Even those who look at my website ask if he is available based on the finished gardens. I can’t recommend him highly enough. Bo Cook , Garden Designer and Member of The Society of Garden Designers, Bo Cook Landscape and Garden Design , Lewes, East Sussex

Thank you for transforming our garden so beautifully. Your tireless attention to detail, charming workforce, inspiring designs and all that hard work. Cannot recommend you enough. Sophie, Client, Ringmer, East Sussex

Fantastic attention to detail. Really nice team to have on site and we are delighted with the result. Lucy, Client, West London

Simon, Sophie and their team completely transformed our back garden into a multi-levelled oasis. From the initial design meetings, throughout the installation and finally when helping choose appropriate plants, their professionalism, attention to detail and customer service were impeccable. We absolutely love our stunning new space and are spending so much more time out there. I could not recommend them more highly. Chris, Client, Lewes, East Sussex

We have very limited back space behind our terraced house, so when thinking about how we could best make use of it, the time that the team took to advise us was invaluable. We were looking for a space we could enjoy sitting out in, that our young daughters could play in and most importantly that we could look out on and enjoy all the plants chosen to give us as much green space as we could create. Simon Scott Landscaping were on time, on budget and on hand for any and all questions and help. Thanks so much for the wonderful work. Bjorn, Client, Lewes, East Sussex

Simon was meticulous in the preparations for the work for our garden project making sure we fully understood what we were agreeing to. The site was challenging being at the rear of a Victorian house. Simon and his colleague Richard were not fazed by problems met on the way and the quality of the work was extremely high. It was a pleasure having Simon and Richard working here. Colin, Client, Hassocks, West Sussex

Simon Scott Landscaping has just transformed my “deck desert” into a wonderful outdoor space. They were very reliable, hard working, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. Despite having very limited space to work in they were very tidy and the works were completed well within the time estimated. I highly recommend them. Ros, Client, Haywards Heath, West Sussex

Simon was recommended by a garden designer who had drawn up plans for a boardwalk running down to a pond in our garden. Simon’s preparation and communication ahead of the build was very thorough.  Once the work had started both Simon and Richard were hugely professional in terms of how they approached what had to be done and keeping us up to date on progress.  They were also very attentive to any concerns we had on the impact of the build.  I have to say we were so impressed with the care Simon and Richard showed in terms of protecting the rest of the garden when they had to bring in machinery and move piles of waste through the garden.  Something we haven’t always seen with other contractors! We now have a beautiful boardwalk and platform that will last for years and is being used every day. Tim, Client, Haywards Heath, West Sussex

Simon and Rich have done a magnificent job of transforming my concrete back yard into an interesting, multi-layered garden that makes full use of a small space. I really appreciated their punctuality, tidiness, the quality of the materials and attention to the details, plus of course, their skills & hard work in putting it all together. Thank you both, you are a brilliant team. Jane, Client, Lewes, East Sussex

Simon Scott Landscaping was recommended to us by the Garden Designers we were working with, and Simon’s excellent reputation is well founded. Simon and Richard were great to have around, working incredibly hard and efficiently with the minimum of disruption. Their work is of the highest standard and we are delighted with the results. They were a real pleasure to work with from start to finish, and always kept us informed. We shall certainly be queuing up when it comes to doing the second stage of the garden. Tristan, Client, West Sussex

We are really delighted with the transformation of our courtyard. Simon and his team worked like Trojans in the wettest February in memory and were easy going, hard working and professional. The process from start to finish was made easier by Simon’s clear contracting, and the work itself didn’t impact the household as they quietly got on with the work. We now have an absolutely beautiful haven of tranquility which will provide us with many years of pleasure. Thank you! Paul and Louise, Client, West Sussex

Our garden work completed by Simon and Richard was of a very high standard and they were 100% reliable and hard working. As well as the excellent quality of their work they kept the site clean and tidy and communication was very good throughout the project.  Our garden has been transformed and we are delighted with the new space we can now enjoy. Debbie, Client, West Sussex

We were absolutely delighted with the way that Simon and his team have transformed our garden, he seemed to understand our requirements better than we did. Not only is the standard of workmanship extremely high the attention to detail is fantastic, he anticipated issues that we hadn’t considered. I found Simon and his team to be polite, courteous, and reliable.  We were fully engaged and informed throughout the process.  The follow up and after care that we have received has been to the same very high standard. Christine, Client, Brighton

Simon and his team are exceptionally talented at transforming unusable spaces into beautiful, usable garden spaces.  The team worked tirelessly, with huge care and attention to every detail, and their craftsmanship was second to none and precise.  Plus they were all exceptionally tidy, clearing up religiously after each day’s work.  I would highly recommend Simon and the team to undertake any garden build  you may have. I have received no end of positive comments from friends and family at the finished garden – and I love it. Sarah, Client, Hurstpierpoint, West Sussex 

Simon and his team landscaped both our front and back garden during extreme weather conditions. Despite this they carried on working hard and conscientiously always on time and ready for a hard day in front of them. The team are very friendly and helpful, always willing to explain what they were doing and why. Their attention to detail and expert knowledge was very evident ensuring a high quality finish to the garden. We can’t thank the team enough for their brilliant work. Kevin and Jan, Client, Crawley, West Sussex

We are both absolutely delighted with the garden you, Ben and Richard have created. I don’t think it is an exaggeration to say that your work will transform how we use our garden and massively increase the pleasure we get from spending time in it. Hannah and Mike, Clients, Lewes, East Sussex

We were very impressed by Simon’s professionalism and knowledge. The team managed to continue with the work through snow, ice, wind and rain, protecting the work when necessary and always being good humoured, efficient, adaptive and tidy. The pond has been a joy since, bringing movement, light and reflection into our view from the house. Plants are flourishing and we have balletic dragonflies to watch as well. Thank you for your skill and the pleasure you have brought us. Mariana and Keith, Clients, Barcombe, East Sussex

We have appreciated all your attention to detail, thoughtfulness and care over the course of the project. You and the team have been a pleasure to be around. Please stay in touch and we look forward to inviting you around later in the year. David, Client, Alfriston, East Sussex

I recommended Simon Scott Landscaping to my clients because I knew that being a BALI registered contractor meant that Simon’s standard of work would be to the very highest industry standards. The landscaping team were lovely to work with and each stage of the work was carried out thoughtfully and carefully, with any queries referred back to me as the designer to ensure that the garden was built exactly in line with the design principles for this project. I was really pleased with the finished garden and, more importantly, so was my client. I’ve already recommended Simon Scott Landscaping to more of my clients and look forward to working with them again soon. Heather Martin, Garden Designer, Heather Martin Garden Design, Lindfield, West Sussex 

We recently worked with Simon Scott Landscaping on a complex domestic project in East Sussex. The project involved various sub contractors. Simon proved to be a useful team player and filled his role to ensure a successful completion. His colleagues were diligent and each had excellent individual skills. The site was kept clean and tidy and attention to detail was over and above the norm in landscape construction terms. Julia Fogg, Garden Designer and Member of The Society of Garden Designers; M Inst Hort.; Dip LA, Julia Fogg Associates, East Sussex

Thank you so much for all the work you’ve done in the garden. You’ve done such a great job and it’s totally transformed the space. It’s even better than I had imagined and I love how much care and attention you all put into everything. Both neighbours commented on how nice and considerate the guys were too. It was a pleasure to have you all here. Lucy Rowe, Client and Garden Designer, Hurstpierpoint, West Sussex

I enjoyed working on our last collaboration together with Simon and found the whole process efficient and value for money. Simon’s attention to detail and ensuring that he understands what is required meant that the end product reached its highest level. Nigel Philips, Garden Designer and Fellow of The Society of Garden Designers, Nigel Philips Landscape and Garden Design, Lewes, East Sussex 

We cannot thank Simon and his team enough for creating such a fabulous garden for us. The work was done in the winter under the most atrocious weather conditions and they never failed to turn up on time and remained cheerful throughout! The site was a difficult one to work on because it sloped from the top to the bottom but working with garden designer Catherine Cridland, he turned what was an unloved lawn area into paradise on earth.  As a result we now have a garden filled with light that lifts our spirits every time we look at it.  Carolyn and Chris, Clients, East Sussex

Simon and his team’s attention to detail was second to none in bringing my clients garden design to life. I was always consulted when a design decision needed to be made and Simon was happy to make suggestions on various aspects as the implementation progressed. The clients also fed back how clean the site was left at the end of each day, which was a real achievement as all materials had to be brought through the house and the weather for the most part of the build was dreadful. They also commented on how polite and respectful the team was. Both myself and client were really pleased with the completed garden and I would have no hesitation in recommending Simon to anyone contemplating having their garden landscaped. I look forward to working with him again on future builds. Julie Cox, Garden Designer, Julie Cox Garden Design, West Sussex

The team worked tirelessly through all weather conditions to completely transform our front and back garden. The quality of their work, from poured concrete pathways to raised beds and new borders, is outstanding. They offered great attention to detail and solved any issues thoughtfully and carefully. With two ever-present and inquisitive children on site, the team always kept things neat and safe; the kids really missed them when they were gone! Thanks for doing such amazing work and for being such a pleasure to have around. Nick and Bella, Clients, Maresfield, East Sussex

Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication to the garden project. You and the team have been amazing – working hard through all weathers. Danny, Client, Alfriston, East Sussex

Simon contacted me regularly with updated progress reports and visit requests when needed, and if we did alter minor details during the build, we worked out alternative solutions together to achieve the installation goal, always keeping the integrity of the original design. Site was always kept tidy and the team worked hard, quickly and efficiently. They were always on time and were friendly and respectful to my client too, Another excellent result! Carol Whitehead, Garden Designer and Member of The Society of Garden Designers, Carol Whitehead Garden Designer, Seaford, East Sussex

You have done an amazing job –thank you. We can’t express our gratitude enough for the fantastic work you guys have done over the past few months. The results are truly excellent. We are immensely impressed by your work and very grateful for it.  Rory, Client, Richmond, Surrey

I found Simon and his team a pleasure to work with. Their care, expertise and attention to detail ensured the design was fully realised and a determination to make sure everything was done correctly really shows. They were able to think on their feet, suggest creative and insightful solutions to the issues that always emerge on site and always understood the importance of budget. Much to be recommended and I look forward to working with them in the future. Paul Templeton, Garden Designer, Baobab Garden Design, Brighton, East Sussex

I am just writing to say a big thank you to you and the team for transforming my tired old back garden into a dream space. I can’t praise enough the professionalism and hard work of the guys, who were unfailingly polite and always turned up on time. From the planning, groundwork and planting, the attention to detail was amazing. My friends and neighbours can’t believe the transformation and I am enjoying showing off my  new “designer garden” ! Congratulations on a great job ! Mrs Gordon, Client, Cranbrook, Kent

We already had pretty set ideas on our garden design when we approached Simon. He took everything on board as well as making helpful suggestions. I was impressed with the level of detail he went into to achieve what we wanted. I found Simon and his right hand man Richard punctual, reliable, hard working and trustworthy. The site was left clean, tidy and safe at the end of each day which was much appreciated. We are delighted with the results and would certainly commission him again if we had the opportunity. Magali, Client, Lewes, East Sussex

We are so delighted with the work that Simon and his team did for us transforming our garden into something modern, manageable and stylish.  Friends are astonished at the transformation.  We would recommend this company to anyone, they were amazing; they came when they said they would, did what they said they said they would and discussed every aspect of the work with us. We just love sitting in it. Catharine , Client, Lewes, East Sussex

It has been such a pleasure working with Sophie, Simon and Richard of Simon Scott Landscaping.  They are an exceptionally hardworking and friendly team.  From the outset, we were impressed with their accuracy, precision and attention to detail, which now shows in how good the hard landscaping looks.  They have an excellent knowledge of materials, going that extra mile and always coming up with solutions to any design problems we encountered. Given this is mucky work in the Winter they still always cleaned and tidied before leaving for the day.  We were also pleased that the price quoted was what we paid, often a rarity these days! We would highly recommend Simon Scott Landscaping and will certainly be looking to invite them back when it is time to tackle our front garden. Emma , Client, Burgess Hill, West Sussex

Simon and Sophie have completely transformed our garden. They put in so much time and effort to design and craft a space that looks incredibly beautiful and works so well with our house and family. Simon’s team worked ridiculously hard to get the job done on time and the finish is of an exceptionally high standard. They were charming to have around and at times worked totally beyond the call of duty. With the design, they suggested things that we never would have thought of yet worked tirelessly with us, listening to our peculiar foibles and requests. And the result is a stunning terrace and garden, a natural extension of our house, that has surpassed all our hopes and expectations. We cannot recommend Simon Scott Landscaping enough. Sophie and Myles, Clients, Ringmer, East Sussex

Simon and his team did an amazing job of transforming our garden. Where once there was clay, there are now colourful borders and a lovely kitchen garden area which we are looking forward to reaping the benefits from this summer. Simon and his team were friendly, efficient, tidy but above all, professional. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to redesign their garden. Sam, Client, Haywards Heath, West Sussex

We have a small garden in Brighton and as a keen lover of sunshine and light was desperate to change my old dull garden for one with light and colour and a more Mediterranean theme.  I am delighted with the work that Simon and his team did for us transforming our garden to my idea of a Mediterranean look, clean, bright,  manageable and modern.   Simon and his team  started the work when he  said they would, completed the work to plan and on budget, keeping me involved throughout.  I am so looking forward to spring when the plants start to grow. I would recommend Simon’s company without hesitation. Ann and Colin, Client, Brighton, East Sussex

We have very limited back space behind our terraced house, so when thinking about how we could best make use of it, the time that Sophie and Simon took to help design and structure the space before they began, was invaluable.

Most importantly we wanted a space we could look out on, enjoying all the plants  that had been carefully selected to give us as much green space as we could create.
