What customers say

Halliwell Rd in Bolton is home to this garden design and landscaping business, whose founder Adam Harris features repeatedly in customer accounts of full garden transformations. Reviewers describe turning tired, overgrown or building-site-like plots into usable outdoor rooms, with several mentioning patios, decking, pergolas and privacy fencing such as a venetian slat screen delivered as part of a wider design. A theme that comes up often is Adam's willingness to challenge a client's initial idea with a more considered design, taking time to understand how the space will actually be used before drawing up plans. Clients repeatedly note that he explains material choices and costs clearly during the process, and that low-maintenance outcomes are a common request he delivers on. Several accounts describe Adam and his colleague Joe working efficiently and politely, with more than one household calling him back for further phases of work once the first project was complete. Reviewers also mention that jobs were finished to a high standard and on schedule, with the finished gardens described as exceeding expectations. The practice operates weekdays from nine until five, with no weekend availability, and reviews span projects from 2019 through to 2026, suggesting a steady flow of repeat and referral work built around design consultations followed by construction.

Adam and his team have just completed new landscaping in my garden in Bolton and I am thoroughly satisfied with the job they have done. Adam was very communicative so that I always new where we were up to and what to expect. The lads who did the work were always industrious and cheerful. One surprise was the discovery of a new dry stone waller who carried out the building of a new wall. All in all a project carried out during the worst of the years weather that I can recommend.

Tuesaday am.03rd.March,phoned this lot,spoke, apparently,to Cheryl. Gave her all details as she asked,phone no.,email, address etc.and info.on proposed job,new lawn,new stone area,and renovation of substantial patio areas. Cheryl said "the team" would be in touch. 6 days later nothing!! So monday 09th.March am. I phoned again. Spoke to another lady who confirmed all my details and my conversation with Cheryl 6 days earlier. She was apologetic couldn't understand why no one had been in touch and assured me "the team" would contact me "in a few minutes". Guess what. Now,30 hours later still nothing from them. Zilch,Nada. Not bothered, I simply won't ever consider using them for any job. The inevitable conclusion is how difficult would it be if a customer had paid a lot of money and required some AFTER SALES service from them??

I contacted Adam Harris Garden design in June of 2025 after carrying out my own research by following his social media feeds on Instagram & Facebook for a few months and was suitably impressed. Well what can I say …. I contacted Adam in the June of 2025 & he very quickly booked me in for a home visit . Adam was punctual & very professional, we talked at length about what I wanted him to deliver. I asked for a Low Maintenance, Modern space that would make me smile in every season. Adam outlined my gardens Key Opportunities. So we set a date for October 2025 to start PHASE ONE Adam is a lovely chap & certainly knows his Trade , I found him & his team Dave & Joe a delight to work with, always respectful of my property. Dave & Joe are so hardworking & so good at what they do especially at the hard landscaping or joinery work. Adam & his team returned to complete PHASE TWO in February 2026 . CONCLUSION- I am over the moon with the transformation, the before & after is wonderful. So without hesitation I will be asking Adam Harris Garden Design to complete the next stage … PHASE THREE …. Is the Removal & Addition & Extension of new foliage boarders within the project to add Colour, fragrance & movement. Thank you for a very enjoyable journey guys HIGHLY RECOMMEND ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm very pleased with the work that Adam and his team from Harris Landscapes have recently undertaken for me. I wanted an easy-to-maintain garden that I could enjoy when then weather is good. Adam took my brief and created both very attractive front and back gardens. I have more privacy now, after the fitting of a stylish venetian slat fence and also a lovely shaded area for sitting out under a new pergola. Throughout, Adam and his team have shown a high degree of expertise and craftsmanship, with a keen attention to detail, a good knowledge of design and plants, plus they've been so considerate by tidying up each day to minimise disruption. I'm now looking forward to the new year to start planting and enjoying the garden later in the year!

After having our patio done by Adam and Joe we asked them to come back to complete the rest of our garden and we’re so happy with the transformation! They did a fantastic job and everything was finished to such a high standard. Can’t wait to enjoy our beautiful garden.

What an Incredible transformation of the garden. We cannot recommend Adam and his team highly enough. They have created a brand-new living space in our garden and enhanced the overall appearance of our home. Adam is brilliant at design and also listening to the customer ! all through the process he guided us through choice of materials, Budget options and was transparent with costs at all time. We have never had such a prompt people working on our home. they were here on time each day and worked tremendously hard were great communicators, cheerful and polite. Even our neighbours commented on their work ethic. Finally the results of the work is outstanding. We now have a hand built Drystone wall , beautiful porcelain patio with surrounding shrubs and plants all chosen to both enhance the garden and provide visual stimulation as well as smelling delightful . Im addition we have a fantastic cost effective new lighting system. It is a huge transformation thats been worth every penny.It’s easy to maintain and beautiful so we are just delighted.We will use Adam and his team again and can highly recommend..
