Projects






"Onadune", Sheshader - before

The owners of this luxury self catering cottage in Point needed a total transformation of the neglected garden area in time for the first guests of the season arriving.




"Onadune", Sheshader - after

We chopped the whole area down with our powerful all-terrain mower before setting about with brushcutters, rakes and then finally the finishing mowers to leave a well-tended and visually appealing lawn area.








Decking Construction - before
This recently renovated cottage in Back was lacking a functional garden space. The owner provided a detailed plan of the desired features. The area here was ear-marked for a large decking structure.








Decking Construction - after
The decking area completed and has transformed the above untidy storage area into a beautiful, robust and functional place to entertain and enjoy the summer sunshine.







Laxdale School Polytunnel
Along with various other landscaping projects carried out at Laxdale School we constructed a polytunnel.






Laxdale School Polytunnel

The polytunnel will be used by pupils to learn about growing plants and will be a great educational resource.






Bayhead Crazy Golf Course

The old putting green on Bayhead marked out here for work to begin on a brand new crazy golf course and amenity garden area.




Bayhead Crazy Golf Course

With the turf carefully lifted and the best of it re-used on other projects throughout Stornoway, the outline of the crazy golf course can now be seen. The piles of blocks seen lying along the edges have being saved from the town centre where new paving has now been laid. They will be recycled to form the paths surrounding the new course.





Bayhead Crazy Golf Course

A mini excavator is used to dig out the foundation bed for the new paving and crazy golf course. The excavated soil is mounded to form the beds which will be later planted with trees & shrubs.





Bayhead Crazy Golf Course

The planting and paving work is now completed and the area is ready for the pre-fabricated crazy golf course to be set in place.

 
Stornoway Waterwheel
During the construction of the Stornoway Waterwheel we were involved in the provision of landscaping services.
Laxdale School
Here we tidied up some unused beds and turned this area into a place where the school children could play safely.
 
 
Iain & Catriona's - before
This garden had been neglected. The fence was in a poor condition, the rockery and gravelled areas full of weeds and there was no suitable place to sit out during the nice weather.
Iain & Catriona's - after
We transformed the area into a low maintenance garden with a variety of shrubs to give year-round interest, a more functional fence for shelter & privacy and a large patio area for relaxing and entertaining on during the summer months.
 
 
Mr & Mrs MacDonald, Laxay - before
The requirements here were simply to tidy up the area and provide a more visually appealing and functional low-maintenance garden area.
Mr & Mrs MacDonald, Laxay - after
After clearing the site we laid new paving slabs to broaden and improve the access around the house, constructed a substantial decking area and planted a few specimen shrubs. The remaining areas were covered in a weed suppressing membrane and topped with decorative chips.
 
 
Portvoller Picnic Area - before
We were asked by the Portvoller Grazings Committee to tidy up this dis-used roadside area and design and construct a useable community garden and picnic area.
Portvoller Picnic Area - after
After extensive excavation work and importing tonnes of topsoil we created this peaceful area on the shore of the loch at Portvoller. It is a haven for locals and visiting bird watchers alike.
