Halifax Landscaping & Driveways is a landscaping and driveway contractor working across Halifax. We build gardens and lay driveways for homeowners in the town and nearby Elland, Sowerby Bridge and Brighouse, and much of our work comes from people who have seen a job we did for a neighbour or a relative and want the same standard on their own plot.
We are a hands-on firm. The person who visits to measure and quote is involved in the job from start to finish, and the team that digs out the ground is the same team that lays the final course of blocks or rolls out the turf. You can reach us at Halifax HX1 1RE or on 07886 065 535.
Who We Are
We started as a landscaping outfit working from a van and a trailer around Halifax. Driveways came naturally: the front garden conversions our customers asked for needed the same ground works, drainage knowledge and paving skills as a patio, only built to carry cars. Most weeks we have a garden and a driveway on the go at the same time.
Every job has one lead who prices it, sets out the levels and checks the work before handover. We keep the team small enough that everyone knows every job.
What We Do
On the landscaping side we design and build complete gardens as well as individual elements: patios and paths, retaining walls and steps, fencing, decking and pergolas, lawns from turf or seed, borders and hedges, land drainage and levelling, garden lighting and irrigation. We also clear overgrown and neglected gardens so a new scheme can start on clean ground.
On the driveway side we install new drives in block paving, resin-bound gravel, tarmac, concrete and gravel, replace failed surfaces, repair and resurface sound ones, and fit the drains, soakaways and permeable margins that keep rainwater on the plot. Regular maintenance rounds across Halifax keep what we have built looking the way it did at handover.
Our Standards and Guarantees
We work to the standards a good landscaper in Halifax should work to, and we are happy to show the paperwork behind them.
- Written quotes. Every job is quoted in writing with materials, depths, drainage and programme listed. We do not price from photographs.
- Insurance. We carry public liability insurance, with certificates available on request before work starts.
- Waste carrier registration. All spoil, old paving and green waste leaves site under our registered waste carrier status.
- Construction standards. Paving is laid to BS 7533 on compacted Type 1 MOT sub-base; drainage follows SuDS principles; garden electrics go through a qualified electrician under Part P.
- Planning awareness. We check the 5 m² front-garden permeable surfacing rule, conservation area status and tree preservation orders before work is priced.
- Written guarantee. Installation work comes with a written guarantee on workmanship at handover.
If something ever does go wrong, you will find us at Halifax HX1 1RE or on 07886 065 535.
Our Team
Our team is made up of landscapers, paviours and ground workers who have spent years on the tools, plus the people who keep the maintenance rounds running through Halifax. We train on site rather than relying on agency labour, and new members work alongside experienced hands until the job lead is satisfied with their finish.
Specialist work is brought in only where the law or good sense requires it: a qualified electrician for mains garden lighting, a tree surgeon for larger felling, and highways-approved contractors for dropped kerbs. In every case we manage the job and remain your single point of contact.
Where We Work
We are based in Halifax and most of our work is within the town itself, across Skircoat, Warley, Illingworth, Ovenden and King Cross. We also take on gardens and driveways in nearby Elland, Sowerby Bridge and Brighouse where the distance makes sense for daily travel and deliveries.
Working close to home keeps our prices honest, means we know the ground and the planning quirks of Halifax, and means our guarantee is backed by a firm you can drive past. To arrange a visit, call 07886 065 535 or write to us at Halifax HX1 1RE.

Common Questions
Who will I deal with if I book a job with you?
The person who visits to measure and quote stays your point of contact throughout. The team on site report to them daily, and any question about the job, from a change of block colour to a start date, goes through one phone number: 07886 065 535.
Can I see your insurance and registration details?
Yes. Our insurance certificate and waste carrier registration are available on request before any work starts, and the details go on your written quote. Our address is Halifax HX1 1RE.
Do you use subcontractors?
Only for specialist work such as mains electrics, large tree work and highways kerb alterations, where a qualified or approved contractor is required. All landscaping and paving is carried out by our own team, so the people who quote, build and guarantee the work are the same people.
What guarantee do you give?
Installation work comes with a written guarantee on workmanship, issued at handover and backed by us at Halifax HX1 1RE. Materials such as blocks, resin and turf carry their manufacturers' own guarantees. We do not put a number of years on the website because the terms are set out properly in the paperwork you receive.
