DOWN TO EARTH | PASSION
About Us
To plant a garden is to dream of tomorrow
Picture this: A small team of passionate individuals united by a shared dream of transforming ordinary spaces into awesome spaces. The journey began when our founder, a seasoned landscape gardener, decided that landscapes deserved more than mere maintenance.
As the company sprouts and flourishes, so does its commitment to excellence. We are becoming synonymous with sound ethics, good value for money and quality trade work that maintains and elevates the professional industry standard.
What sets us apart is not just our quality workmanship, but our dedication to client satisfaction. One client at a time, we are forging lasting professional relationships within our local communities through hard work, attention to detail and ethical business practices.
Word of mouth continues to spread and our reputation continues to blossom.
Born to Lawn isn't just a Garden & Landscaping company; it's a testament to the belief that every outdoor space has the potential to be extraordinary, and every customer can expect to get the service they deserve
So, why are we the best? Because Born to Lawn was not just born to lawn; it was born to deliver high quality and conscientious working practices in every service.
Our Team
Bob Kinsella - Director
Bob Kinsella has over 20 years’ cross-trade experience in landscape construction and engineering, both as a qualified engineer and part of a multi award-winning landscape construction team. In addition to supervising many domestic and commercial maintenance contract obligations over the years, from the first planning to finishing touches, Bob has led the construction of numerous high quality domestic garden and landscape design projects, and been a senior operative in the construction of an RHS Silver Medal winning designed garden at a well-known televised garden show.
Bob started Born to Lawn in late 2022 with a view to bringing his two decades of trade skills and knowledge and “down-to-earth” work ethics to his local community, providing every customer with a friendly, transparent and high quality service that not only looks fantastic, but will last and be enjoyed for many years to come.
Byron Wild – Landscape & Maintenance Operative
Byron has spent his entire working life in the landscape industry, having worked on numerous domestic and commercial landscape design-and-build construction projects, including new homes, apartment housing and nursing homes. Byron has a genuine passion for the outdoors and has accumulated a wealth of knowledge and experience in the landscaping trade. Byron brings a keen eye for horticultural detail, and prides himself on a fastidious attitude to his work. Byron’s easy-going nature and high-quality finishing make him well-liked by our customers, and the perfect addition to the team.
Sustainability
At the heart of our landscape gardening services lies a deep-rooted commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainability. From conscientious plant selections to practical drainage solutions, we're dedicated to crafting outdoor spaces that not only captivate the eye but also work harmoniously with the surrounding landscape. With every build or maintenance project we look to continue and improve our eco-friendly use of materials and waste.
Through efficient planning, sourcing only sustainable materials, recycling responsibly, and re-purposing materials whenever possible, we not only aim to minimise carbon usage through a reduction of quarrying, processing and transport, but also reduce the time, waste and material costs associated with delivering our high-quality services; helping us to remain competitive and giving our customers peace of mind about our industry practices.
I would definitely recommend Born to Lawn. Bob provided complete transparency in quoting to move my fence and heavy gates, reusing what materials he could and replacing some landscaping posts for me. Very professional service throughout.
