We work across PH2 in New Scone, Old Scone, the estate fringes, Balbeggie, Guildtown and the farmland between, and we are in the Perth area most weeks so scheduling is easy. ### Response times to Scone Free site visits within a few days, fixed written quotes back the same or next day, and booked works typically starting inside one to three weeks. Urgent safety work — a limb down, a fence flattened by an easterly off the Tay — is prioritised within our Mon–Sun 8am–6pm working hours. ### Familiarity with Scone property types Scone has grown a great deal, and the garden work reflects that. Around the older village and the estate fringes there are mature specimen trees, established hedges and generous plots. Across the newer developments there are hundreds of gardens built to a developer's budget: thin topsoil over compacted subsoil, standard panel fencing, and turf that gave up in its first summer. We do plenty of both. Scone · PH2 Free site visit. Fixed price. Waste taken away. ≈ 30 minutes from our Crieff yard via the A85 and Perth. Speak to Andrew directly.

Every service linked below is a full, self-contained page — pricing basis, methods, materials, guarantees and FAQs. [ ### Lawn Installation The most requested job in Scone's newer streets — strip out the failed developer turf, decompact, add real topsoil, lay quality turf on prepared ground.

Read full service page ](/services/hedge-trimming) [See all nine services](/#services) Why Scone chooses us ## Concrete reasons — not marketing lines. ### We fix new-build gardens properly Not another roll of turf on the same compacted ground. We deal with the cause, which is why the lawn stays good after the first summer. ### Everything from one team Tree work, stumps, fencing, drives, turf and planting — one quote, one crew, one sequence that makes sense. ### Reviews from your postcode Several of our 5★ reviews come from PH2 customers, on jobs from garden maintenance to tree removal. ### Fixed price, no deposit Written price after a free visit, nothing paid up front, and no 'while we're here' extras appearing at the end. Property types ## Scone plots we work on. ### New-build and recent estate housing Small-to-medium rear gardens on compacted ground, thin topsoil, panel fencing already leaning. Standard work: proper lawn reconstruction, fence replacement in concrete, and a layout that suits a family rather than a brochure. ### Established village housing (Old Scone, Perth Road) Larger plots with mature trees and hedges planted decades ago, now needing reduction, deadwooding or removal, plus borders that have been shaded out and want replanting. ### Estate-fringe and rural plots Big gardens backing onto parkland and farmland, with specimen trees, long boundaries and gravel drives that need real depth and drainage. ### Balbeggie, Guildtown and the farming edge Exposed plots with shelter belts, stock and post-and-rail fencing, and long hedge runs on a proper cutting cycle. Local problems ## What comes up in Scone. ### Developer topsoil that grows nothing The single most common complaint we hear in Scone. An inch of screened topsoil over a compacted pan means water sits, roots cannot penetrate and grass thins to moss within two seasons. ### Panel fencing versus Tay-valley wind Easterlies coming up the valley find every weak fence on an exposed boundary. Concrete-set close-board is the difference between an annual repair and a fence you forget about. ### Mature trees close to newer houses Where new streets have been built up against established boundaries, big trees that were fine in a field are now overhanging roofs, gutters and gardens. Reduction, deadwooding or removal — often with a consent check first. ### Poor surface drainage Flat, heavily built ground with little fall. Lawns sit wet, gravel disappears into mud, and paving pools. Drives here get a proper sub-base and a designed outfall. ### Small gardens, big hedges Leylandii planted as a quick screen ten years ago and now nine feet wide. Staged reduction, or removal and replacement with fencing, is the usual honest answer.
