About Landscapers Kent

One request, matched to landscapers who work near you

Landscapers Kent is a free matching service for Kent homeowners planning work outside, whether that's a full garden redesign, a new porcelain patio, decking, fencing, a fresh lawn or new planting and a pergola. Instead of ringing round and waiting for return calls, you describe your garden once. We pass it to vetted local landscapers working in your area, from Dartford and Medway to Canterbury, Thanet and Folkestone, and they contact you to visit and quote. You choose who to use, and your agreement is with that business. Landscapers Kent is managed by Astute Management in Gravesend.

FAQs

Garden landscaping questions from Kent homeowners

Is Landscapers Kent a landscaping company?

No. Landscapers Kent is a free matching service. We pass your request to vetted local landscapers, who quote you and carry out the work. Your agreement is with the business you choose.

Does it cost anything to use?

No. Sending a request is free and there's no obligation to accept any quote.

Do I need planning permission to landscape my garden?

Usually not, but some work does: fences or walls over 2 metres (1 metre next to a road), decking over 30 cm high, impermeable paving over 5 square metres in a front garden, and work in the grounds of a listed building. Protected trees need council consent. Check the Planning Portal or your council.

Which parts of Kent do you cover?

All of Kent, organised into 12 areas: Dartford, Gravesend, Medway, Maidstone, Sevenoaks, Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells, Ashford, Canterbury, Thanet, Folkestone and Hythe, Dover and Deal, and Swale.

How are landscapers vetted?

We check that businesses are established local firms with appropriate insurance. You should still look at gardens they've finished, check they're a registered waste carrier if they're taking soil and rubble away, and agree a written quote before work starts.
