Mario Milligan-NagyFounderGarradh Landscape & Design in a few words
We build gardens with structure, warmth and a strong sense of place. From our Thornhill studio, Garradh brings design thinking and hands-on construction together for private gardens across central Scotland. Patios, paths, walls, levels, drainage, lighting and planting are considered as one composition, not a collection of separate jobs.
Founder Mario stays closely involved, and our APL-accredited, insured team gives each project the time and craftsmanship it deserves.

Reviews
The 7 year old patios at the front and rear of the house were falling apart: wobbly paving, cracked slabs and displaced grout. They needed some heavy maintenance. I called Garradh on Tuesday, materials were delivered on Wednesday morning, Mario's team arrived in the afternoon and the job was finished on Friday. They had taken apart, refitted, grouted and power washed 85m2 and had replaced 13m2 of granite slabs that had been wrongly fitted. The workmanship of the team was professional and to a high standard.It was done speedily and with a smile. What else would you expect from Super Mario!
Thank you
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mario and his friendly, hard-working team. We needed an overhaul of both our front & back gardens - ripping everything out and starting afresh with new slabs, hedging, lawns, driveway, paths, soil beds and a pergola. Mario spent time with us at the design stage, advising us on what would/wouldn’t work landscaping-wise and sharing his expertise on everything from slabs to hedge types. It was clear that he likes to deliver the highest of standards to his clients and when it came to the execution of our plans he didn’t disappoint. We’re delighted with the results. We now have gardens that look beautiful and are also functional. Mario and his team were great at communicating, keeping us informed of what was being done when, sharing any potential additional costs and checking precise details with us before they started each piece of work e.g. the angle of our path, the position of our pergola legs and the diameter of the circles to be cut out of the turf at the base of 2 trees in our lawn. This was ideal for me, being a perfectionist! And another bonus was that the work was finished within the time Mario had said it would be. We had a great experience overall.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure working with you on the full transformation of your front and back gardens.

From the first visit to quote for the work to the minute they left the job the team from Garradh Landscape & Design were impeccable. Mario talked my wife and I through the whole job, explaining why some things needed to be done one way rather than another, he would advise on our ideas and whether they were worth while or a waste of our money, he worked with the Joiner who was doing decking and fence work so that all the landscaping would tie in seamlessly. He guided us through what materials he thought best for what we wanted but was happy to use our choices so you didn't feel pushed into using his suppliers. He was also upfront about costs and wont leave you hanging on for your quote. The team turned up prompt every morning and got straight to it, they worked a full day every day until the job was complete and left the place tidy every night, when we wanted to change something near the end of the job they were more than accommodating and done what we wanted. At the end of the job the place was all washed down and cleaned so we could go straight out and enjoy our new garden. Mario and the team came to me on a recommendation from a friend and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to you. If you want a well executed and thought out job with a team who are experienced, honest and professional, who work with you and leave you with a satisfied glow when you step out your back door then call Garradh Landscape & Design and enjoy your new garden for years to come.

We're proud to offer high-quality, bespoke landscaping services across Stirling, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Perthshire, and feedback like this helps others trust in our process. Thanks again for the recommendation — we’re always here if you need anything in the future! — Mario & the Garradh team
Another great job from Mario and his team. Told us when they were going to arrive, start and finish. They have tiled our front patio, back patio plus 2 x paths. Highly recommend this company - their experience and work ethic is 2nd to none. Ronnie, Alloa.
