You'll always know whose hands your garden is in.
Wishing Well Gardens & Landscaping has been a family-run business since 2004, and in every one of those years the same thing has held true: Richard leads the job himself. Read our Google reviews and one name comes up again and again — “Richard and his team,” “Richard explained what was needed,” “you couldn't meet a nicer guy.” That isn't a marketing line; it's what clients across Solihull and Warwickshire wrote themselves.
It matters because a garden is built over days and weeks, not hours. When the person who surveys the site is the same one setting the levels, laying the paving and finishing the job, nothing slips through the gaps. Our multi-skilled team carries the whole build in-house — groundwork, paving, walling, decking, fencing, lawns, structures and lighting — so you deal with people who take real pride in the work and leave your garden the way they'd want their own.
Peace of mind
Insured, guaranteed and genuinely local.
We keep it honest: no borrowed badges, just the things we actually stand behind. Every job is fully insured, our work is guaranteed for your peace of mind, and our record sits in public on Google and Yell.

What we do
From driveways and patios
to decking, fencing & lawns.
01Driveway & Patio Paving
Block paving, porcelain, natural stone and Indian stone for driveways, patios, walkways, terraces and forecourts — laid clean, level and to fall.
02Hard Landscaping
A multi-skilled team building garden walls, retaining walls, raised beds and concrete slab bases for outbuildings, sheds and hot tubs.
03Decking Design & Installation
Composite decking — rot, warp, splinter and insect resistant, in a range of colours — and traditional timber decking, with steps, ramps and seating areas.
04New Lawns
Artificial grass — low maintenance, allergen reducing and water saving — and rolled turf, both with full ground preparation for a lawn that lasts.
05Fencing, Gates & Structures
Privacy screens and every fence type — feather edge, close-board, panel, security and decorative — plus timber and metal gates, sheds, pergolas, gazebos, garden rooms and more.
06Garden Lighting Design
Path lights, spotlights, floodlights and security lighting, designed to extend the garden into the evening and keep it safe after dark.
Why clients name Richard by name
“Seriously, I cannot recommend this firm enough. Richard and his team have done an amazing job on our back garden at our bungalow. The garden was in a terrible state and has now been transformed into something really special for my mother. From start to finish the work ethic was outstanding and you couldn't meet a nicer guy.”

How it works
Survey, build, guaranteed — one team.
01
Free site survey & quote
Richard comes out, walks the plot with you and listens to how you actually want to use it — sun, slope, drainage, access, the lot. Then we put a clear plan and an itemised price to it, explaining what's needed, how we'd carry the job out, the timescale and the cost, with no obligation to go ahead. Clients regularly note how well the job is explained before a spade goes in.
02
Build & installation
Our multi-skilled team carries the whole build — groundwork and levels, paving and walling, decking, fencing, turf or artificial grass, structures and lighting. We're punctual, tidy and explain each stage before it happens, taking real pride in the finish. Where a scheme brings several trades together, they all sit under one team, so you're not chasing separate contractors.
03
Finished, guaranteed & looked after
We leave the site clean and the work guaranteed for your peace of mind, and we're insured throughout. A garden built to last still rewards a little care, so we're happy to come back — the reason so many of our clients are repeat clients, and why our gallery keeps filling with local work.
