A. Reid Garden Services
What customers say
Based in Blackburn on the northern edge of Aberdeen, this business draws praise from homeowners across the wider area, including Maryculter, for garden clearance, landscaping and outdoor maintenance work. Several more than one review highlights Alec by name, describing him as easy to reach and quick to respond, even when work is booked at short notice. Jobs mentioned include cutting back overgrown bushes and trees, lawn care, weeding, gutter clearing, pressure washing of driveways and fences, re-sanding lock-block paving, turfing and laying artificial grass, and painting of fences and wood stain work on a dormer. A point that comes up often is how tidy the crew leave a garden or driveway once finished, with materials and waste removed rather than left behind. Customers also note that the team starts on time, sometimes earlier than expected, and completes work efficiently even on large or long-neglected gardens. Some reviews describe Alec offering useful advice on future maintenance or flagging issues spotted while on site. Pricing is consistently described as reasonable or good value, and long-standing customers say the standard of work has stayed consistent over several years of repeat bookings. The business operates seven days a week except Sunday, with hours running from early morning to early evening, covering both small trimming jobs and larger garden transformations.

Good sound advice. Excellant craftsmenship. Reliable. Finished the job when specified. Would recommedd Alec at A.Reid Garden Services to anyone.
Alec and the team did a great job. They did a general garden tidy-up and cleaned and re-sanded our block paving driveway. The garden and drive look excellent and we’re very happy with with the work. Friendly and professional team. We’ll be in touch with Alec again for future garden work.
Great work! The garden now looks well cared for. Thanks. Karen
I have used this company for several years and the service and quality of work is always excellent
Punctual, did a great job and left the place tidy and all at very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend.
Fantastic job by Alec. Sorted our large garden in Maryculter that had become very overgrown. All bushes and trees cut back, grass cut, weeded and gutters cleared. Top service and very easy to communicate with !
Excellent quick service, polite and friendly. Job completed exactly as agreed, area was left clean and tidy. Will definitely use again. Within 48 hours of contact to job completion is an example of great customer service. Well done team!
