A family team in Wellington
building gardens that still
look right in ten years

Harbour Grove Landscaping works almost entirely for homeowners. The typical customer has a garden that has stopped working for them, a cracked or sunken patio, a fence that has given up, an overgrown corner that swallows the whole weekend, or a level change nobody has ever dealt with properly. They want it fixed once, by people who turn up when they say they will.

Patios and paving are our specialty. That is where the detail shows: the depth of the dig, the compaction, the falls, the edge restraint, the pointing. Around that we build driveways, fencing, retaining walls, turfing, decking and sleeper work, groundworks, and full garden transformations where all of those elements have to meet each other neatly. Garden rooms are a growing part of the business, taken from groundworks through to insulation and electrics.

James has six years in landscaping. Behind him sits more than thirty years of family experience in carpentry, joinery and building, which is why the timber detailing on a deck, a sleeper bed or a garden room tends to be sharper than you would expect from a landscaping outfit. There are four of us. That is deliberate: it is small enough that James is on every site, and big enough to keep a job moving instead of stretching it over months.

We are based at 14 Lower Westford, Wellington, and work across Somerset and Mid Devon: Taunton, Tiverton, Chard, Somerton, Ilminster, Wiveliscombe, Milverton, Cullompton, Sampford Peverell, Bishops Lydeard and Langport among them. We do not currently take on commercial work; private gardens are where the attention to detail counts for most.
