Introducing the heart and hands behind our landscaping team

Our small, local team of dedicated landscapers, carpenters, and management staff all share a passion for seeing beautiful landscaping projects come to completion to the satisfaction of our valued clients. We believe that “the strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team” Phil Jackson.

Planet 14 created a gravel garden, pathway and driveway. Their workmanship was excellent and they were proactive on the overall design which created an even better end result. Highly recommended.

A superb job, Thom and his team out carried out the works on time and on budget. The standard of work was excellent and I would recommend Planet 14 Landscapes Ltd to anyone.

From start to finish Planet 14 were exemplary in their professionalism and project management. We gave them a brief to transform our large lawn into a bespoke garden haven. From the design to execution we were kept fully informed and briefed on progress and next steps. Every member of their team were experts and excelled. Thom and Jo were more like best friends than contractors by the end of the project. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to you.

We used Planet 14 to replace an existing pool surround and patio with porcelain tiles. They were efficient from start to finish. They gave us a fixed price quote, any variations were always discussed first. The guys that carried out the work were tidy, hard working and communicative. We’re really happy with what they’ve done and would unquestionably use them again.

From the word go, Thom and his team helped us select the best materials and advised us on all aspects of the build and overcame many obstacles with practical and cost effective solutions. As the work progressed we were consulted throughout the entire process and our opinions and concerns were understood and listened to. The whole team was a pleasure to have around and their hard work, attention to detail and desire to create something they were really proud of, was obvious. As a result, we have ended up with something that is even better than our original vision. We have literally lived in our garden since it was completed and couldn’t be happier.

We have used Planet 14 for an array of improvements over the last couple of years including a 400 sq m terrace, a lawn, planting of specimen trees and general landscaping and have been delighted with the work. The team are always on time, and the workmanship has been faultless - to have managed to achieve such a great finish on such a large terrace was really impressive. We’re now plotting our outside kitchen...

We have worked with Planet 14 for many years and have seen them grow into a considerable force in the landscaping world. They have always offered us good value for money, kept to their word and delivered in a timely and efficient manner. Excellent positive attitude, led from the top.
