Paradise Gardens
What customers say
Paradise Gardens, run by Steve and at times assisted by Joe, has built a strong local reputation from work in and around Acomb. Patios laid in Indian sandstone, fresh turf, artificial grass and matching edged pathways feature throughout accounts of garden transformations, often turning neglected outdoor spaces into easy-to-maintain areas. Several clients say they first noticed Steve's work while he was on a neighbouring job, pointing to a steady stream of local recommendations built on visible results rather than advertising. Trust and reliability stand out as consistent themes, with one homeowner recalling that house keys were left with him so work could continue during their absence, everything left locked up and tidy afterwards. A point raised often is that Steve listens closely to a client's own ideas while offering his own suggestions, balancing personal wishes with practical know-how. Difficult access and awkward site layouts are described as being managed without fuss, and work is said to carry on steadily even in poor weather, with sites kept clean throughout. Drainage problems have been resolved as part of larger garden overhauls, and new fencing with a gate has been fitted alongside planting and turfing schemes. The business operates six days a week, from eight in the morning until six in the evening, closed only on Sundays.

Steve of Paradise Gardens has just completed our front gravel garden, path and fencing. It's a really great job, perfect, just what we asked for. He is a really friendly guy and a hard worker, extremely tidy and well organised. Last year Steve completed a patio and fencing in our back garden. Excellent job. We did not hesitate in asking him back. Would highly recommend Steve. The Allens
We are very pleased with the patio and new lawn that Steve of Paradise Gardens recently completed for us. He did a great job, working hard to navigate the difficult access arrangements, keeping everything neat and tidy. He was very friendly and kept us up to date with how the work was progressing. We would definitely recommend him.
Steve (Paradise Gardens York) did a fantastic job of relaying two patio areas in my Mum's garden - they look like new! He worked really hard during some periods of awful weather and kept everything clean and tidy. Steve is a very friendly landscaper who we would not hesitate to use again or to recommend to others.
Steve and his team did a great job landscaping our new back garden. They were able to make the best use of our asymmetrically shaped plot which also has an awkward slope. The patio looks beautiful and Steve was also always happy to chat about planting, helping to make our new garden wildlife friendly.
Very happy that I chose Paradise Gardens for this project, Steve and his team removed hedging, excavated 100 tonnes of spoil, installed new boundary fencing, prepared a new area with Tegula sett mowing strip and screened topsoil also relayed/extended existing driveway. Steve accomplished these tasks with challenging site access, whilst considering my neighbours access throughout. Steve was always friendly and polite with good attention to detail, he communicated regularly and always exhibited a "can do attitude", I will have no hesitation in recommending him to friends and family.
For health reasons I needed my back garden tamed and made easily maintainable. I asked Steve to deal with it and he did a great job, keeping the basic structure of the garden and just enough highlights to make it appealing and a pleasant place to sit. Brilliant!
Used Steve twice for my garden and he does an absolutely incredible job and I’m so pleased with the work. Manages to crack on despite me not being able to be home, trusted with my house keys and has always locked up and kept everything tidy! Fantastic job in helping me get a garden my son can play in. Would recommend to anyone needing their garden doing.
