Services
Garden Design We believe your garden should be a true reflection of the way you live. Our bespoke designs combine visual appeal with practicality, carefully considering the demands of the Scottish climate. From initial concepts to comprehensive planting plans, we shape spaces suited to family life, entertaining, or peaceful retreat. Whether reimagining the entire plot or refining selected areas, we provide clarity before any groundwork commences.
Driveways We believe a driveway should provide both structure and distinction to your home. Our service covers concept development, material guidance, and full installation, ensuring each stage is handled with precision. By integrating practical features such as effective drainage and defined borders, we create surfaces that are resilient, orderly, and visually balanced.
Patios & Paving Creating patios that endure is at the centre of our service. We combine thoughtful design with high-quality materials, including porcelain, natural stone and composite paving, to achieve dependable results. Attention to drainage, edging and structural integrity ensures long-term performance. Each space is planned to complement your property and support practical, everyday use.
Outdoor Living Spaces To achieve a garden that is as relaxing as it is impressive, contrast plays a vital role. We incorporate carefully selected features, including fire pits and water elements, to infuse outdoor spaces with energy and refinement. These additions enhance both atmosphere and enjoyment. Engage our team to realise your outdoor vision.
Decking Through our decking installation service, we create high-quality composite and timber decks suited to diverse outdoor settings. Our multi-level constructions add depth and functionality to exterior spaces. We can incorporate bespoke seating, contemporary glass balustrades, and discreet integrated lighting. Sound structural groundwork and appropriate drainage systems are always provided as part of the package.
Walling and Steps We specialise in the construction of retaining walls, garden steps, and ornamental walling throughout Glasgow and Central Scotland. Each project may be formed in natural stone, dry stone, brick, or blockwork. Sound foundations and carefully planned drainage systems are fundamental to our retaining walls. We are committed to structural integrity and a professional finish.
Artificial Grass Our team installs artificial grass across Glasgow and Central Scotland, creating lawns that remain pristine in every season. We remove the burden of mowing while ensuring surfaces stay free from mud and discolouration. Careful groundwork, nearly undetectable seam joining, and effective drainage form the foundation of each completed project.
Planting Through our expert planting design and installation, we transform outdoor spaces with precision and horticultural knowledge. We deliver structured borders, distinctive specimen trees, carefully positioned hedging, climbers, and seasonal floral displays. Plant varieties are chosen to suit Scottish environmental conditions. Proper soil preparation is always undertaken to promote long-term success.

MacColl and Stokes completely transformed my rear garden in 2018. They listened to what I wanted and worked closely with me during the entire reconstruction process. The garden has now had time to mature and looks amazing. It is well admired by anyone who visits. I can highly recommend them

We couldnt be happier with the fantastic job MacColl & Stokes did transforming our garden and driveway. They levelled the whole area, laid beautiful Indian Sandstone paving, built raised beds, planted all around, and gave us a lush new lawn. They also installed a smart new resin driveway, added new fencing, and built a lovely small wall that really finishes the space. One of our favourite features is the brilliant new bin shelter Sean builtits practical, beautifully made, and blends in perfectly with the rest of the design. The whole teamPatrick, Callum, Callum, and Seanwere friendly, hardworking, and a pleasure to have around. A special thanks to Keith, who oversaw everything with such attention to detail. He was always easy to reach, always responded promptly, and we never had to chase anything uphe was already on it. The team worked in all weathers, even when it dropped to minus 4, and the results are stunning. Highly recommended!

McColl and Stokes recently completed a landscaping project in our front garden based on a design by Mhairi Auld. We are absolutely delighted with the finished result and how professional and friendly the team were.

Scott and his team did a first class job of transforming the garden in our new home. Working to a design by Mhairi Auld, there was a lot of landscaping, creating walls and level seating areas, and building and planting garden beds, all on a difficult sloping site. The guys were always friendly, tidy and professional. Were totally delighted with the results and have loved spending time in the garden this year as the planting matures. A worthwhile investment!

We are very pleased with the building of a garden retaining wall which is 12 metres long by 1.8 metres high. It was built to reinforce the existing old wall which was beginner to lean over. We also had new stairs built to the lower garden area renewed and a wooden fence was reinstated above the new wall. It was a labour intensive project because there was no access for machinery. We were very happy with the final result and by all the workers involved who cleaned up the site very well and protected the garden and front drive where the materials were delivered. We have no hesitation in recommending MacColl & Stokes for groundworks. A good job well done. Many thanks.

Absolutely outstanding work from Scott and the team at MacColl and Stokes Landscaping!
Scott helped us with the initial design and came with loads of ideas of how we could maximise the space in our garden and now we have 2 beautiful and usable seating areas, a driveway that really sets off the house, a pergola and its all linked together with borders and paths.......a big job delivered superbly. So pleased with the results!
From the minute the team arrived they were awesome....nothing was a bother and they made the process so easy and the team were so great to have on site!
Tidy from start to finish and always kept us up to date with anything that was happening and were always happy to make changes that enhanced the design!
Top class work, a superbly experienced team and the quality of product and work is just brilliant.
We cannot recommend MacColl and Stokes Landscaping highly enough.
