OLIVE GREEN LANDSCAPING
What customers say
In Wolvercote, on Elmthorpe Road, Olive Green Landscaping has built a strong reputation for full garden transformations rather than one-off tidy-ups. Reviews regularly refer to Tom, often working alongside team members including Nick and Will, and describe projects that combine several elements at once: new patios, rebuilt fencing, raised beds, sheds, gravel driveways and turfed lawns. Several accounts describe overgrown or building-site gardens being reworked into finished, welcoming spaces, with attention paid to planting schemes and even a wildlife pond in one instance. Clients note that communication is kept up throughout, with timings confirmed in advance and little disruption despite the scale of some projects. Tidiness during and after work comes up consistently, along with respect shown towards neighbouring properties and existing structures such as patios that were cleaned and re-grouted rather than replaced. Interior design input from Jude is also mentioned for a living space project, suggesting the company's remit extends beyond the garden itself. Jobs appear to run to schedule and to the standard agreed at quoting stage, with several clients returning for further phases of work. Operating hours stretch into the evening on weekdays and cover Saturdays, giving flexibility for site visits and ongoing projects around Wolvercote and the wider Oxford area.

Tom and his team at Olive Green recently landscaped our garden and driveway. They were all a pleasure to work with. We found them reliable, accommodating and regularly communicated their plans. We are delighted with the results and would highly recommend them.
Cannot recommend Tom and his team highly enough. They transformed the look of our house with a paved border, steel edging for the lawn and new gravel driveway. Quick, tidy, professional and a pleasure to work with
The team did a great job adding some paving and digging some flower beds. I won't post picture because it is winter and a bit muddy, so it won't do them justice. But highly recommended! The team is very nice and polite and left our site tidy. Will use them again.
Jude from Olive Green designed our living room. Jude was so calm and thoughtful and really listened to our needs and budget and came up with a design we absolutely love. I would highly recommend her.
We highly recommend Tom and his team at Olive Green. Our garden has been transformed and updated to a much more welcoming and low maintenance space at a very high standard. They were professional and considerate to our neighbours and complied with our requests to keep everything organised and tidy throughout. They also topped up fresh gravel on our driveway, which badly needed it due to the works and lots of back and forth. All were done for us without us having to ask. That was a nice touch and certainly appreciated. Thank you, Tom!
Tom and his team turned a building site (after a long house renovation project) into a lovely garden ( finishing of the terrace / building raised beds, preparing the garden and planting turf and trees). They were very easy to communicate with, on time, very tidy and on budget. Great work - I highly recommend this very professional team!
Tom (& team) built a fantastic lean to shed for us! It was quite complicated, housing an insulated water tank and batteries, with lots of pipes and cables. Tom was amazing at adapting the construction to changing layout requirements. Would absolutely recommend!!
