How do you choose the top gardener in Edinburgh?

A business needs a 4★ Google rating and at least five reviews to be listed at all. From there we score on a combination of average rating and total review count. The composite favours businesses with both high ratings AND a meaningful number of reviews — so a 5-star gardener with 3 reviews won't outrank a 4.9-star one with 200. No paid placements, no sponsorship.

How often is the list refreshed?

Every quarter. If a business drops below 4★ or shuts down, they're removed and the next-best Edinburgh gardener moves up. Badges already earned remain valid — winning a 2026 Top 5 award doesn't get retroactively revoked.

Does it cost anything to be listed?

No. Listings are free — we don't accept payment for placement, sponsorship, or featured spots. Submit your business via Get listed for consideration in the next refresh.

I'm one of the listed businesses — can I edit my listing?

Yes. Each profile page has a "Claim this listing" button. Tell us what needs changing and we'll check you're connected to the business, then update it for you — description, photos, hours, website link. Free, and usually within a couple of working days.

I'd like my business removed

No problem. Use the removal request form — actioned within 7 days, no questions asked.

What gardeners in Edinburgh typically handle

The Edinburgh angle. Common physical realities for Edinburgh trades: conservation-area constraints on external work, shared communal services that need stair-meetings before action, north-facing kitchens prone to winter pipe-freeze, and traffic / parking restrictions that slow same-day callouts in the centre.
