We are delighted with our garden and the process was incredibly easy and Lea, Fran and their team has been wonderful to work with. They worked incredibly hard on our garden and were always here bright and early each day. They were always polite and friendly and their work is of an incredibly high standard and Lea's attention to detail is legendary. Lea and Fran listened carefully to our brief and delivered exactly what we wanted and with some great innovations and unexpected elements as well. I would recommend them without a second thought.

What a pleasure! From design to planning to construction everything ran so smoothly and we are delighted with the result. Lea and Fran have the support of an exceptional team behind them who are clearly proud of their work and very happy to be bringing Langlea's designs to life.

We have just had our front garden (not driveway, Lea) designed, deconstructed and reconstructed by Langlea Gardens. We are completely delighted with the result. Francesca, Lea, Tom, Phil & Josh were a delight. It is wonderful to feel good about the result of your project, but an added bonus when passers-by comment on how good your garden looks. We cannot recommend Langlea highly enough. See before & after.

We are delighted with our Langlea designed garden. From our initial meeting to the finished project, the team at Langlea were amazing. They took the time to understand our requirements and turned it into a brilliant design. The execution of the project was exceptional with great attention to detail. The end result is a beautiful space which is exactly what we wanted and which gets great feedback from everyone that sees it.

I could not speak more highly of Lea, Fran and their team. We are so happy with our new beautiful garden. Their design fitted our brief perfectly. They were so thoughtful about how it would connect to the rest of the house, particularly our kitchen which looks directly out onto the garden. Nothing was ever too much trouble and they were a pleasure to have around during the project, making us feel very much part of the process but without any of the hassle! I highly recommend Langlea to anyone considering a new and improved garden.

Fantastic service from start to end. Super professional team, great ideas but listened to my design requirements. Loads of creativity but even Fran and Lea, the owners, had to admit my red theme was a winner. Highly recommend!

Langlea has just completed a big garden design and build job for us and we couldn't be happier. From the outset, communication has been very clear and professional. The design that they came up with was beautiful and far exceeded expectations and we were blown away to see it come together in real life. The work was carried out faster than expected and by a team of guys that were all very professional, hard-working and nice to work with. Their good humour and professional attitude even helped to keep the neighbours happy. We are so thrilled with the finished product! We want to be out in the garden
