About
The Solihull landscapers families call back.
Wishing Well Gardens & Landscaping is a family-run firm established in 2004, led personally by Richard across Solihull, Warwickshire and the West Midlands — one landscaper you can point to, from the first walk round the plot to the day the job is finished.
Most landscaping firms sell you a brand. Wishing Well Gardens & Landscaping sells you Richard. Read the reviews on our Google profile and the same 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 marketing copy; it's what clients across Solihull and Warwickshire wrote themselves.
We've been family-run since 2004, and it matters because a garden is built over days and weeks, not hours. When the person who surveys the job is the same one on site setting the levels, laying the paving and finishing the work, nothing slips through the gaps. From our base on Sansome Road in Shirley, Solihull, Richard leads the whole thing — and is the person you actually deal with, start to finish.
Our multi-skilled team builds the whole scheme in-house: driveway and patio paving, hard landscaping and walls, decking, fencing and gates, new lawns and artificial grass, raised beds, concrete slab bases, garden structures, greenhouses and lighting. It means one team answerable for the garden, not a chain of separate trades to chase.
The reviews tell the same story from the client's side. One family watched a back garden “in a terrible state” transformed into “something really special” for their mother. Lynn Meehan's sinking patio was renovated start to finish by a team who were “punctual, polite, hardworking & cheerful.” Simon Cocks had fencing replaced and bases built for a greenhouse and a soft-play area in one go. Nicole Drew had artificial grass laid and “couldn't be happier.”
And we care about the part you can't see. Paving and bases are only as good as the ground underneath, so we build on a properly prepared, consolidated base and correct falls rather than a thin bed of sand. It's the difference between a patio, driveway or shed base that stays put and one that sinks a few years on — and it's why our work is guaranteed and our gallery keeps filling with local jobs.

How we work & why it's safe
What family-run, Richard-led means for you.
You deal with Richard
The person who surveys your garden is the person who runs the build. Richard is on site setting the levels, laying the paving and finishing the job — which is exactly why clients name him, not a faceless company, in review after review.
A multi-skilled team
Paving, walling, decking, fencing, lawns, bases, structures and lighting are carried in-house by one crew. When one team is answerable for the whole scheme, nothing gets lost between separate contractors and the job runs to time.
Built to last, not to sand
The difference between paving that lasts and paving that sinks is all in the base you can’t see. We build on a properly prepared, consolidated base and correct falls — the reason we could rebuild one client’s sinking patio for good.
Insured & guaranteed
Every job is fully insured, and our work is guaranteed for your peace of mind. We keep the site tidy, explain each stage before it happens, and leave the garden clean — the reason so many local families have us back.
