Southampton Homes

"We had a colossal garden renovation project, which was arguably more of a rescue operation! We have a very steep, tiered garden that was in a state of dangerous disrepair. Some levels were falling away and we trying to hold them up by tying ropes around railings and trees. To add to these challenges, the garden backs onto a nature reserve and there is only side access through our garage. Over the last year, we approached and were rapidly turned away by multiple landscapers, all of whos websites boasted that 'No job was too big.' It was very stressful and I thought no one would help, until Southampton Homes came to our rescue in January 2025. Steve is a very friendly, knowledgeable and tenacious. He takes immense pride in the quality of his work. Throughout the project, customer satisfaction was always the absolute priority. Due to the scale of the job and challenges it presented, we had to make a few last minute changes. This was never an issue and communication was always easy with Steve and David. They were always kind, patient and receptive to any ideas or changes we presented to them. Steve often suggested alternative solutions and guided us on what materials would be the most sustainable and cost effective. Tom and Neil were also a credit to the team. They worked so hard in ALL weather conditions without any complaints. They were always on time.. sometimes early in fact and they were consistently friendly, polite and respectful. The garden was always left neat and tidy after work each day. I truly can't recommend Southampton Homes highly enough. In terms of their approachability, attention to detail and reliability, this team is simply outstanding. They far exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much guys. You are super stars!

"We hadn't heard of Sutherlands before, but they had good reviews online so we got them round to quote for some landscaping. They turned up on time, listened to what we wanted and explained what they could do given what they had to work with. Their quote was reasonable and so we booked them to do the job. A couple of days in and we noticed a couple of things that we wanted changing. We pointed this out and the next day they rectified matters without quibble. Thomas was in charge of the job and everything went smoothly. Communication was always good, requests were replied to in good time, Sutherlands were good to their word and always turned up on time. Upon completion there were a couple of small snags which were put right promptly without question. The two new patios and raised flower beds look excellent and we are very pleased with the standard of work done. I would highly recommend Sutherlands, they were easy to deal with and have done a great job."

"We live in a new build house and recently had our blank canvas of a garden landscaped by David and his team, adding 2 patios, a path, stepping stones, a shed base and sleeper beds. The whole process was smooth right from the start and nothing was too much trouble. David worked with us to settle on a design, quickly updating quotes and making suggestions for materials. Work started quickly and the guys on site, Steve and Jeff, were absolutely brilliant. Always on time, polite and professional. They had really practical solutions for all the details that popped up along the way and their input made a huge difference in turning the design into a reality. We're so pleased with how the garden looks now & can't wait for the warmer weather to enjoy it. We cannot recommend Sutherlands highly enough."

"I'm very happy to leave a review for Sutherlands, as they recently finished our new driveway and we're very happy with the results. Our old gravel drive was causing some problems inside our house, as it was contributing to damp with poor drainage, so we were worried about finding a company that would not only do a good looking drive, but would be aware of the technicalities of how it was affecting the house itself. Sutherlands understood all this straight away and made suggestions for solving those problems, as well as for doing what was going to look good too. David, the owner, was easy to deal with, with good fast communication. The guys actually doing the work were Steve and Geoff and they were superb - probably the best tradesmen we've ever had on any job. They were decent, friendly, helpful and amazing workers. The care and attention to detail they put in, and their skill at very difficult work was really impressive. Several of our neighbours have even come up to me and said how they noticed how much care and pride they seemed to have in the work they were doing. They seemed to have no problem recommending things that would make their jobs more difficult, going the extra mile for the sake of doing a good quality job. Both of them are a big asset to Sutherlands. We're extremely pleased with the end result and definitely highly recommend Steve, Geoff and Dave of Sutherlands."

"David and his team has done a fantastic job in our garden. They have carried out a complete redesign of the garden which included two large patios, four raised flower beds, removing old turf, level the whole area & re-turfing with sleepers border around it. From the beginning David came across very knowledge and experienced in this field. Throughout the project he kept us informed of what was happening, he would talk through all the ideas with us and he kept to the quote he has given us. His team is really helpful and very experienced. Overall, very happy with Sutherlands Landscapes Ltd, highly recommend them! Please see the before and after photos."
