Established in 1965, James Oliver Landscaping began not as a business, but as a passion. Founded by James Oliver, a man whose love for gardens was matched only by his devotion to family and community our story is rooted in trust, craft, and care.
For James, gardens were never just about design; they were about people. He believed in being part of the community, in sharing his knowledge, and in showing what could be created when families, friends, and neighbours came together. Whether planting a young tree to grow alongside a family, or transforming an entire space into something new, James understood that every garden carries its own special meaning, a sense of belonging, rooted in care.
A Family Legacy in Landscaping
What started as James’ personal pursuit of creating timeless outdoor spaces soon grew into something larger: a reputation built on integrity, hard work, and lasting partnerships. Clients became friends, gardens became legacies, and James’ vision for bringing beauty and value to every corner of the outdoors became the foundation of who we are today.
Now led by the family James inspired, we proudly carry forward his name and values. Every project we take on, whether a small garden transformation or a grand estate design, is guided by the same principles he instilled: heritage, quality, and heart.
For us, landscaping has never been just about paving stones, planting schemes, or water features. It is about trust. It is about creating spaces where communities gather and families grow. And it is about handing down not only craftsmanship, but also the passion and love that James shared so freely.
What James began is now treasured by all who had the honour of meeting him, and his spirit continues to shape every garden we design today.
