Active

Trading as S M LANDSCAPING (2021) LIMITED · Telford · Service area: Telford, Shropshire

Our verdict

Our judgement: this suits you if you want a Telford landscaper covering hard and soft landscaping with an easy quote route. The review volume is healthy but the paper trail is thin. Before booking, ask for the public liability limit, the waste carrier registration number and an itemised written quote.

Recorded with source, scale, count and the date read. These are not our own ratings.

Strengths

  • The site lists garden design, decking, fencing, driveways, patios, turfing and planting across Telford and Shropshire [1]. A free quote is offered, including by message with garden photos [1].

  • The Google listing shows 4.8 from 45 reviews, seen 3 September 2026 [4]. That is the second-highest review volume in this round [4].

Limitations

  • No company record, insurance statement or verifiable registration was found, so trading history and insurance are scored as insufficient evidence rather than as failings.
