Transforming Outdoor Spaces with Expert Landscaping
If you’re searching for a gardener in Loughborough but your garden needs more than a quick tidy, you’re in the right place. Groundzman focuses on the structural side of garden work, i.e. the construction, layout and hard surfaces which turn an outdoor area into a space you do want to use.
A great garden doesn’t start with plants alone. It starts with solid levels, proper drainage, strong edges and well-laid patios and paths. Our landscape gardeners in Loughborough bring together hard landscaping services and practical design so your garden looks good and functions well day to day.
Groundzman is a family-run business with over 15 years’ of experience in garden transformations, makeovers, including complete garden design and build projects across the whole of Loughborough and the surroundings.
Our Landscape Gardening Services
We handle everything from the first dig-out to the last bit of pointing and brushing in. You don’t need to juggle different trades, it’s our team’s job to look after all that.
The typical landscape gardening services include:
Ranges from simple sitting areas to large outdoor living spaces and we carry out full patio installation using porcelain, natural stone and block paving. As experienced paving contractors and block paving specialists, we set out, level and lay each area so it feels solid underfoot and drains correctly.

Fencing & Boundaries
We install garden fencing & gates that help keep pets, children and property safe. Whether you need new panel fencing, closeboard, decorative screens or a new gate, we can match existing styles or give the garden a fresh, more private boundary.

Walls & Levels
Many gardens around Loughborough sit on a slope. We build retaining walls, steps and terraces to manage levels and create tiered gardens that are easier to use. These walls & levels work hand in hand with your patio and paths, turning awkward corners into practical spaces.

Lawns
If your grass is patchy or you’re starting from bare soil, we can lay new turf or install turfing & artificial grass. Real turf gives that classic garden feel, while artificial grass suits busy households who want a green space staying away from regular mowing.
Custom Solutions for Every Garden Type
As with other things, no two gardens are the same, and plenty of plots around Loughborough come with their own challenges. Steep slopes, boggy corners and uneven ground are common problems. We design and build sloped garden solutions using retaining walls, raised sleeper beds and carefully planned levels so the space is easier to move around and use.
If water sits on the lawn or patio every time it rains, we can look at various garden drainage solutions – like adjusting falls and channels to adding soakaways as part of our groundwork services. The aim is always the same: a garden that copes with British weather and doesn’t turn into a mud patch.
We also think about day to day life like. Because many of our clients want low maintenance gardens – spaces that look nice, but don’t demand every weekend with a mower or hedge trimmer. We can plan layouts, surfaces and planting with that in mind.
Quality Materials: Porcelain, Stone & Timber
Good landscape gardening is an investment in your home, so the materials need to last. We’re seeing more and more people choose porcelain paving for a clean, contemporary look which is easy to keep tidy. It’s a great choice for practical family patios and modern outdoor living spaces.
For a more traditional feel, natural stone patios work beautifully, adding character and a softer finish. We can walk you through different garden paving ideas, from mixed sizes to contrasting borders, so the design suits both the house and the way you plan to use the space.
We source our slabs, blocks, sleepers and aggregates from trusted landscaping suppliers, using landscaping supplies that are made to cope with the UK weather. The result is durable outdoor surfaces which will last for years.
It All Starts with the Groundworks
The most important parts of a garden build are often the bits you never see. Before a single slab goes down, we focus on the foundations, levels and drainage.
Our team handles all excavation and site clearance, removing old patios, broken concrete, tired lawns and root-ridden borders. We then build proper sub-bases, compacted in layers, ready for new patios, paths and driveways.
Because Groundzman also provides groundwork services, we’re used to bigger garden renovation projects, including replacing lawn with patio, changing levels or reshaping the whole plot. Throughout the job, we keep access routes as clean as possible and leave the site tidy, so you’re not left with piles of rubble or soil to sort out.
