About the company

Leicester Lawns and Landscaping is a family-run business with a family team, owned by Shaun, who has worked in the landscaping industry for over 20 years. It operates as a full-time business serving Leicester and the wider Leicestershire area, providing landscaping services year-round rather than seasonally. The company offers a diverse range of services including driveways, turf laying, patios, paving and raised planting beds. It provided free tree cutting at Redgate Farm Animal Sanctuary.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Turf laying emerges as the most frequently praised service in accounts of this Leicester company's work, with customers describing gardens and driveways transformed from a bare or tired state into finished outdoor spaces. Several reviewers highlight how Shaun responds quickly to enquiries, supplies a quotation the same day and talks through each stage of the process, including photographs during the work and advice on looking after the new lawn afterwards. A point made in several accounts is the tidiness of the crews, who arrive when promised, dig out and remove old material, and clear the site before leaving.

The standard of the finish is mentioned repeatedly, whether the project involves fresh turf at a new-build property in Oadby, a gravel driveway, sleeper planters filled with topsoil, raised beds cleared of weeds and covered with gravel, a side gate with chippings, or an additional parking space with a block border, membrane and gravel grids. Deliveries of turf and screened topsoil are described as punctual. Teams are consistently called friendly, hardworking and professional, with changes absorbed calmly, and Shaun is singled out by name for his communication and organisation.

Bought 30 rolls of turf from Shaun at Leicester Lawns & Landscaping just over three weeks ago, and I’m really impressed with the quality. The turf arrived fresh, has rooted really well and is already looking thick, healthy and green. Shaun was friendly, helpful and clearly knows his stuff. The whole process was straightforward, and the quality of the turf has exceeded my expectations. I’m so pleased with the results that I’ll definitely be going back to Shaun when I extend my front garden. Highly recommended.

We would highly recommend Leicester Lawns and Landscaping.. Shaun and his team have done a wonderful job on our new turf lawn… From the minute of filling out the enquiry form, to the prompt response , top notch communication and Shaun fitting us in, on our requested week , which we felt to be unrealistic due to our unrealistic expectations 😌… Shaun and his team were very professional, nothing was an issue, resulting in a great job within blistering heat.. Thanks again Shaun .. Just need a Parasol now to be able to enjoy our lovely new garden 🥵 🌞 xx

Thrilled with the way my garden has been transformed. Love my new lawn and how the raised beds have been cleared of weeds and layered with gravel ready for me to put out containers. The team were very professional and worked super quick. I can now manage the garden easily and relax. Many thanks. I would definitely recommend 😊😊

Shaun from Leicester Lawns and Landscaping laid the turf at our new-build home in Oadby, and we couldn't be happier with the result. After just two weeks, the lawn is thick, lush, and beautifully green. The quality of the work and attention to detail were excellent from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Shaun and his team were fantastic. They explained everything clearly, worked hard regardless of the weather, were reliable, friendly and professional. They have done a fantastic job, so pleased with the work from start to finish. Believe me we did our research and they stood out a mile from their competitors. If you want a fantastic job from a great team then don’t hesitate and contact Shaun.

I highly recommend Shaun and his team for your garden transformation! Such friendly, hardworking and professional people, they ensure everything goes smoothly and to a great standard. I am so grateful to them for explaining the process in detail, sharing photos of the steps and the aftercare advice. I love my new garden ❤️ The 3rd photo shows how the turf looks after one week - it was laid on the hottest day of the year so far and I was so worried if it will survive or not Thanks again Shaun!

Shaun recently installed new turf at our new build home in Leicester and we’re really pleased with the result. From start to finish he was professional, reliable, and clearly takes pride in his work. The quality of the turf and the finish exceeded our expectations, completely transforming the garden. He communicated well throughout, turned up when promised, and left everything tidy afterwards. It’s refreshing to find someone so hardworking and trustworthy. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Shaun to anyone looking for landscaping or turf installation work.
