Brian's Gardening Services
What customers say
Consistency stands out most in accounts of this Yardley Hastings gardening service, with several clients describing monthly arrangements that have continued for years without disruption. Timekeeping and dependability recur throughout, visits arriving as agreed with little turnover of staff, so familiar faces return each time. More than one review describes gardens that had become unmanageable being brought under control quickly, including one plot transformed within a handful of visits and another now regarded by its owner as approaching show standard. Practical work mentioned includes mowing, weeding of borders and gravel areas, construction of a vegetable patch, and cleaning and refilling of a garden pond, alongside general seasonal tidying. Brian is credited with sound plant knowledge and a readiness to share informal advice on planting and upkeep, while a colleague named Mark is singled out for patience with a particularly unruly garden and for checking in whenever instructions were unclear. Several accounts contrast the business favourably with previous contractors who failed to turn up or finish jobs, noting instead that quotes were honoured and work completed as promised. One review recounts a garden kept immaculate while a family member's property was prepared for sale. Word of mouth features often, with neighbouring households in the area going on to book after seeing the finished results firsthand.

Since my father in law went into care just over a year ago, Brian and his team have been outstanding. Reliable, trustworthy and hardworking; they have kept the garden immaculate and there is no doubt that this helped with the eventual sale of the property. I would not hesitate to recommend them for all your gardening needs.
We have been using Brian early Spring 2025. We told him that we would reserve judgement until summer 2026. With the fact that our garden is fast becoming a show garden, it’s the best it has ever looked, and I am told be Brian that it will only get better. The service is superb, always on time, never let down, nice guys and a beautiful garden. I highly recommend Brian, he is a true gardener.
Thanks for that don’t trust this man
One of Brian’s team, Mark, came to deal with our neglected, horribly overgrown ridiculously silly garden. We haven’t had time for it over the past couple of years - and in just three visits he has restored it to its former quirkiness. And he gets us! I am so relieved to have found someone who is reliable, prompt, friendly and with a sense of humour. He does exactly as asked and if he’s unsure, he asks. Tho I have to say that he doesn’t have to ask now - he’s picked up exactly what we want. I’m thrilled!
Absolutely fantastic. So refreshing to finally have someone who followed up on what they said they would do and charged fairly. They have been so reliable. I haven’t enough fingers to count the amount of people who let me down prior to finding Brian’s Gardens. Fully recommend them. A great service you won’t regret having them.
I have had a terrible situation with my garden approximately 5 years ago. I had numerous people turning up and quoting for the services back then. Then I met Brian who took a personal interest in sorting my back garden. Fast forward to today and I am still happily working with him and his business. I don’t have to worry about my garden and front lawn anymore. Brian and his team take care of everything. Highly recommended services. Punctual and professional.
Always promot and knowledgeable. My garden has never looked so good
