What Glasgow Homeowners Say
Marie Dee
Glasgow
I recently had Riverside Landscaping complete work in my garden and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial quotation through to completion, Leon and his team were professional, reliable, and hardworking. They kept everything tidy throughout the project and completed the work to a very high standard. The finished garden has completely transformed the look of my property, and the attention to detail was excellent.

Heavy Glasgow clay requires a 150mm to 200mm compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base lined with a non-woven geotextile membrane to isolate clay movement.
