A website as well kept as the gardens you build.
Landscaping is sold with photographs. If your site does not do your gardens justice, nobody sees why they should pay for them.
Fixed price / Plan within 2 hours / No sales call
People buy a garden with their eyes first. Your website is the portfolio a customer flicks through on a phone before deciding whether to ring, so it has to show your best work large, sharp and quickly. It also has to make clear what you actually offer: design, build, maintenance, or some mix, and where you work.
What a website for landscapers and garden designers has to do.
A portfolio built around your best projects
A few complete projects with several photos and a short story each beat a wall of unrelated pictures. Show the design idea, the finished result and the type of space.
Clear separation of what you offer
Design and build, hard landscaping, planting and ongoing maintenance attract different customers. Separate pages let each visitor find their own service without wading through the rest.
Seasonal relevance
Garden work comes in seasons. A site that reflects what people are planning now, such as autumn planting or spring patios, feels current and gives a returning visitor a reason to look.
A simple way to start a conversation
A short form or a WhatsApp message with a couple of photos of the space is often all a customer wants for a first chat. Make that step easy.
Speed with a lot of imagery
Landscaping sites are image-heavy, which is exactly where slow sites suffer. Hand-coded pages with properly sized images stay quick on mobile even with a big portfolio.
Areas you cover and who you are
A garden is a personal job. Customers want to know where you work and who will turn up. A short, genuine introduction helps them feel comfortable inviting you in.
Not mockups. Real, working sites.
Each started from a blank page rather than a theme — which is why no two look related. Verdigris is live on this same domain, so click through and look around properly; Mike is a real wellbeing app's product site; Northlight is a concept build for a loft conversion firm.
The job usually goes to the first firm that replies.
Plenty of landscapers and garden designers lose work they never hear about, simply by replying tomorrow instead of now. Pick how fast you usually get back to people.
How fast do you reply to an enquiry?
Within the hour. The baseline. Every one of these is still a real conversation.

Questions from landscapers and garden designers
How many photos should a landscaping website have?
Quality and completeness matter more than volume. A handful of finished projects, each with several good photos and a few lines of context, is more persuasive than dozens of unrelated images. Make sure they load quickly on a phone.
Should garden design and maintenance be on the same site?
Yes, as long as they are clearly separated. Give each its own page so a customer looking for maintenance is not confused by design-and-build content, and vice versa.
Is a blog worth it for a landscaper?
It can be, if you write genuinely useful posts, such as what to plant in a shady garden or how long a patio takes. Regular, helpful posts can bring in searches. Thin or copied posts do not, so only start one if you can keep it useful.
What should a landscaper's website include?
A portfolio built around a few complete projects, clear separate pages for design, build and maintenance, and the areas you cover. It also needs a short introduction about who you are and a simple way to get in touch, such as a short form or WhatsApp.
Why does a landscaping website need to be fast?
Landscaping sites are image-heavy, which is where slow sites suffer most. Hand-coded pages with properly sized images stay quick on mobile even with a big portfolio.
