What You Need To Know About Landscaping In West Lothian
West Lothian landscaping ranges from turning Livingston’s developer rectangles into first gardens to reworking established village plots in the Calders and shale-country towns.
The discipline never changes: drainage and levels before decoration, foundations that outlast fashion, then surfaces and planting matched to the site. Phased builds across seasons are normal and work well when they follow one plan.
Free walk-rounds anywhere in the county, arranged from our Midlothian base, with one fixed price per phase.

Landscaping advice
Davie’s Advice before you spend a penny
What Davie tells every customer, whether they book us or not. Free to ignore, but he’s usually right.
Drainage first.
Patios, decking and planting all fail on waterlogged ground.
Design for how you live.
Build around how you use the garden, not how it photographs.
Levels before looks.
Get falls and levels right before anything decorative goes in.
Access saves money.
Good machinery access takes serious labour cost off a bigger job.
Plant for the site.
Shade, soil and wind decide what thrives, not the catalogue.
Phasing is fine.
A good plan lets you build the garden in stages.
Got a question these don't cover? Ask Davie. He answers everything himself.

What West Lothian Folk Say About Us
Real reviews from Landscaping customers around Edinburgh and the Lothians.
DSM landscaped the area around our hot tub to a very good standard. They did what they said they would, when they said the would, for a reasonable cost. Absolutely no problems and would absolutely recommend them.
StuartGoogle reviewExcellent service. Highly recommend. Davy was very professional and I highly recommend
ClaireGoogle reviewAfter being let down by several landscaping companies, we were absolutely delighted to find DSM. Scott and Garry came out to quote one afternoon, and by 6pm that same day we had a confirmed price and start date. The quality of their work is exceptional and we couldn’t be happier with how our garden has turned out. The extra touches they added, including power washing our driveway once everything was finished, really show how much pride…
