Landscaping in Shrewsbury, from one-day jobs to full garden makeovers
Shrewsbury gardens vary a lot. Period townhouses and terraces near the town centre often have small, walled rear gardens reached through a narrow passage, while homes on the newer estates around the edge of town tend to have open, level plots that were turfed quickly when the house was built. Each needs a different plan, so we start every project by looking at your garden in person.
The Green Team handles the whole job: groundwork and levels, drainage, patios, paths and steps, driveways, turf, sleepers and planting areas, then the clear-up. If you'd rather keep the garden you have in good shape, we also do hedge cutting, grass cutting, tree pruning and garden clearances.
We help you choose materials, order them and manage the work, and your fixed written quotation sets out what is included before anything starts.

Groundwork services →Planning a garden project in Shrewsbury: things worth knowing
A few local points that often affect the design, the timescale or the price:
- Access: many older Shrewsbury homes have no vehicle access to the back garden, so materials and waste have to go through the house or a side passage. We check this at the site visit because it affects labour and skip or waste planning.
- Wet ground: gardens on lower ground near the River Severn, or on heavy clay, can stay wet for long periods. A good sub-base and planned drainage matter more than the paving you choose.
- Conservation areas and listed buildings: much of central Shrewsbury is a conservation area. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, check with Shropshire Council before changing front boundaries, walls or driveways.
- Paving a front garden: in England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than five square metres in a front garden must be permeable (for example gravel or permeable block paving) or drain onto a lawn or border – otherwise planning permission is needed.
- Dropped kerbs: a new driveway entrance that crosses the pavement needs permission from Shropshire Council as the highway authority before a kerb can be lowered.
We talk these points through at the free site visit, so your quotation reflects your garden rather than a guess.

Shrewsbury landscaping questions
Do you charge for a site visit in Shrewsbury?
No. Site visits and written quotations are free and there's no obligation to go ahead.
How soon will I get my quote?
After the site visit and measurements, we aim to send a fixed written quotation within 48 hours.
My back garden has no side access – can you still do the work?
Usually, yes. Many Shrewsbury homes are like this. We plan how materials and waste will be moved before we quote, so it's included in the price rather than a surprise later.
Can I get an idea of cost before you visit?
Our online quote assistant gives a guide price for common projects. The final price is confirmed after the free site visit, once we've checked access, levels, drainage, waste and ground conditions.
Do you also do hedge cutting and garden maintenance?
Yes – hedge cutting and reductions, grass cutting, tree pruning and garden clearances, as well as full landscaping projects.
