SM Landscaping in short
SM Landscaping is a Telford landscaping team offering fencing alongside garden design, driveways and patios, with a free-quote route by form or message that takes garden photos. Our verdict is that SM suits garden makeovers where fencing is one part of a wider job handled by a single team [1].
The record shows a Trench team working across Telford and the surrounding county, with garden design, driveways, patios, decking and lawn care listed beside fencing. Quotes run by form or message with garden photos attached, which keeps the first step quick for owners who already know their brief [1]. Our view is that this photo-first route fits busy households, while vaguer briefs suit a firm that leads with visits.
Customer evidence splits across two sources: a strong near five-star Google record across recent jobs, and a smaller cooler account on Trustpilot [3]. The Google pool is the larger and warmer of the two, which is an honest mixed picture for a young firm. Our view is that the steady Google approval is the stronger signal.
The company behind the site matches its trading address and has been active since 2021 [2][1]. What counts against SM is youth and paperwork: treat long-experience claims as the team's trade background rather than the firm's age, and no insurance or pricing detail is published.
Our verdict
Our judgement: SM suits you if you want fencing as part of a wider garden job handled by one team, and its review record is strong for a young firm.

Questions about SM Landscaping
Is SM Landscaping any good?
On the evidence, yes for garden makeovers with fencing included: SM sits sixth of the ten, with a strong Google record for a young firm and a quick quote route by form or message. Read the full page and its sources, then confirm cover and terms in writing with your quote.
Is SM Landscaping registered with a trade scheme?
Industry qualifications can't be sourced from the registers, the firm's website or the platforms checked [1]. There is no mandatory register for fencing contractors. Ask for any membership the firm relies on in writing and check it yourself before work starts. Keep anything you rely on beside the quote, so the paperwork tells one story.
What does SM Landscaping charge?
It publishes no prices or rates, though a free quote by form or message with garden photos is offered [1]. That means your quote does the talking: send photos and the full garden brief, and ask for an itemised fixed quote. Confirm what the price covers before you agree anything.
Where does SM Landscaping work?
The team works across Telford and the surrounding county from its Trench base [1][2]. Garden design, driveways, patios and fencing all come from the same firm. Send your postcode with photos of the garden to confirm you are covered, and ask for the free quote. Include garden photographs with your postcode, so the team confirms cover against the real job.
How is SM Landscaping ranked?
It ranks sixth of the ten fencing contractors in our September round, picked for garden makeovers with fencing included, with a review record that is strong though split across two sources. Read the full review, then ask for the itemised quote. Positions move as fresh reviews and records arrive, so read the current card rather than relying on memory.
What do customer reviews say about SM Landscaping?
Google shows a strong near five-star record across recent jobs, while a smaller Trustpilot pool runs cooler [3]. The two sources together give an honest mixed picture, which is normal for a young firm building its name. Look at how recent the Google jobs are and what the cooler reviews object to. Treat the record as encouraging but still forming, and confirm cover and terms alongside the quote.
How does SM Landscaping compare with the others in the round?
It sits sixth of the ten, trailing the longer-established landscapers above on proven depth but matching them on one-team convenience. Photo quoting makes first contact quicker than the call-back routes in its group. Against the supply yards below, SM suits scheme buyers while they suit material buyers. Compare it with one older landscaper on the same written scope.
