"I am really happy with the work done, a general garden tidy and also half the garden remodelled, removing gravel, clearing the area, laying top soil and laying turf. All done to a high standard. The area was left tidy and instructions left on how to look after the new area. Will use again." (Carol, York, 2026)
"Very pleased woth how Lorne and his team repaired our driveway and some loose concrete slabs in our rear garden. Very neat and tidy workers." (Customer of North Yorkshire Groundworks and Landscaping, York, 2026)
"Excellent! Lorne came round to visit and discuss what I wanted to achieve. He listened and offered sound, practical advice and provided me with ideas and a rough estimate, quickly followed up by a written quotation. Lorne arrived first thing on the agreed start date and immediately cracked on and grafted. Lorne kept things clean and tidy during the work, a challenge itself with the weather. we had in December! Lorne kept us informed throughout the job. Really happy with the final result, exactly what I wanted. I would definitely use North Yorkshire Groundworks and Landscaping again!" (Ian, York, 2025)
"Lorne and his colleague have done an amazing job on our driveway, after taking it back to bare ground, removal of all waste included in the quote. They correctly marked out and covered electrical and gas lines which were not covered correctly. before, reworked drainage pipes and installed a new water supply before laying sub base and the finished block pavers. And to top the look off with new fences on both sides. They are incredibly knowledgeable and can problem solve where needed if it it's not as striaghtforwards as first thought. Would 100% recommend North Yorkshire Groundworks and will be using them again in the future." (Customer of North Yorkshire Groundworks and Landscaping, York, 2025)
"Lorne and his colleague did a great job on our garden over the summer. Work included construction of a shed, raised beds, extension of path and patio, new Millboard decking and a paved base for a greenhouse. Friendly and professional, work completed to a high standard. Would recommend." (Customer of North Yorkshire Groundworks and Landscaping, Thirsk, 2025)
"Lorne did a great job to a high standard and transformed our unpromising small outdoor space. His workmanship was excellent, he was reliable and friendly and always cleared up thoroughly. A definite recommendation!" (Customer of North Yorkshire Groundworks and Landscaping, York, 2025)
"Excellent service. Lorne is professional yet easy going, experienced and a thoroughly decent gentleman. We talked through the job I needed doing of some posts to assist as framework for growing fruit trees. The posts are robust, which Lorne fitted with great precision and thoughtfully chamfered the tops and bottoms for rain runoff to help minimise wood rot. They look professionally finished, and my wife and I are very grateful. Thank you very much Lorne!" (John, Thirsk, 2025)
"Lorne turned up exactly when he promised and carried out the work to replace our fences / post to a high standard. We would love to use his expertise again in the future." (Emma, Harrogate, 2025)
"Lorne and his colleague come highly recommended. Lorne listened to our requirements and when we changed our minds he came back out to quote. He has worked on building sites so was familiar with our type of lawn (and estate of 5 year) which doesn't have much drainage. and clay soil. He was the only one to take a soil sample. Of the three quotes they weren't the cheapest but I was the most confident their estimation matched our requirements. The work was fitted in to accommodate us both, they turned up on time and worked throughout the hottest week of the year to date. It was finished earlier than expected and they cleared up. My only complaint is that the soil removed from our front drive was done using a vehicle with a large claw and it cut deep scratches into the tarmac. They have faded a little but I can still see them. It doesn't affect the quality of the work however." (Nick and Ali, York, 2024)
"Lorne came and looked at putting a concrete ramp in for me. I decided to go ahead and turned up on time did the job and tidied up after. Would recommend." (Kevin, Harrogate, 2024)

"Very professional highly recommended very good price." (James, Harrogate, 2024)
"So happy with the job Lorne and his colleague did on our garden! It was an absolute jungle full of tall grass, overgrown hedges and rubble. Now it's beautiful space that we can enjoy and have plants! Very reasonable quote for the size of the job. Arrived on time, got straight on with the job and was done quickly and tidied up after. So happy, big recommendation and will definitely be a regular customer!" (Beth, York, 2024)
"Excellent work by Lorne. I would recommend him and hire him again. The project involved laying subbase, sandstone cobbles and self binding gravel paths in my garden. Turned nice and looks smart, and means my children can enjoy the garden a lot more." (Mark, Harrogate, 2024)
"Excellent job putting in a concrete ramp at my back door to ease my access. Arrived on agreed time, worked tidily and efficiently, and cleared up afterwards. I thoroughly recommend the firm, and would certainly use them again." (David, Malton, 2024)
"Lorne and his colleague turned up early on a saturday morning, lifted all the flags and dug out for the hardcore on one of the hottest days of the year so far. Put down the hardcore for a temporary road so that we can now park our car without water splashing up all over. Would highly recommend North Yorkshire Groundworks for any future jobs." (John, York, 2024)
"Lorne was excellent, a serious grafter with a a lovely sense of humour. He factored in all issues we would likely encounter and arranged solutions before they even became an issue. Using again in a couple of weeks such is my confidence in his abilities after his first project with me. Recommend." (Customer of North Yorkshire Groundworks and Landscaping, Yorkshire, 2024)
