Landscaping & Garden Design · Dundee

Looking for landscaping in Dundee?

Landscaping brings the whole garden together: the levels, the hard surfaces, the boundaries and the planting, designed around how you actually want to use the space. Whether you want a low-maintenance garden, a patio that works for family meals outdoors, or a complete rethink of a plot that has never quite made sense, we plan and build it from start to finish. We carry out full garden transformations for homes across Fife, Dundee, Angus and Perthshire, handling every stage ourselves so there is one team responsible for the finished result.

Dundee's older suburbs hold some genuinely large mature trees — beech, lime, sycamore and pine planted when the villas were built — and these often need reduction or deadwooding rather than removal. Gardens sloping towards the Tay catch the wind coming up the estuary, and the sandier ground in parts of Broughty Ferry and Monifieth drains quickly, which affects both lawn establishment and which turf we recommend.

Several parts of the West End, Broughty Ferry and Newport-adjacent streets fall within conservation areas, and protected trees are common on the older villa plots. We confirm protected status with Dundee City Council before starting. Space is the other constraint — many city gardens have no side access, so large trees are dismantled in sections and taken out through the house side or over walls with proper protection in place.

We cover Broughty Ferry, Monifieth, Invergowrie, Dundee West End, Barnhill, Newport-on-Tay and the villages in between, and you can read more about our wider work on our Dundee page or the full landscaping & garden design guide.

Landscaping & Garden Design carried out by LM Trees & Landscaping in Dundee
  • Garden makeovers — Complete redesign and rebuild of tired or unusable gardens, from clearance and levelling through to the final planting and finishes.
  • Patios and paving — Slabbed, monoblock and natural stone patios and paths laid on correctly built bases with proper falls so water runs away from the house.
  • Fencing and decking — New boundary fencing, screens and timber decking built to stand up to Scottish wind and rain, with posts set securely.
  • Planting and design — Beds, borders, shrubs and trees chosen to suit your aspect, soil and how much maintenance you want to take on.

Why Dundee homeowners choose us

A garden build is a bigger commitment than a one-off maintenance visit, so it matters who you hand it to. We are fully insured, we use one team across the whole project rather than passing you between trades, and we build the parts you cannot see — bases, falls, drainage and post fixings — to the same standard as the parts you can. The finish is what we want you to judge us on.

Typical Dundee jobs: sectional dismantling of oversized conifers in tight city gardens, hedge reductions on long boundary runs in Broughty Ferry, and artificial grass in small, shaded back gardens where real lawn will not thrive.
