Garden Maintenance

Michael Ballentine

Your Service Professional

A bit about me

With over 20 years’ experience as a landscaper, I’ve had the privilege of designing and installing more than 200 garden projects. Working with clients who value thoughtful, well‑planned outdoor spaces has shaped my approach: practical, considered, and grounded in a genuine appreciation for what makes each garden unique.

My offering

Gardens can be complex—most people aren’t expected to be green thumbs, and the process behind creating a successful landscape isn’t always obvious. What I’ve learned is that the most rewarding garden journeys begin with clarity.

Your Journey

When homeowners understand what’s possible, what it may involve, and how to approach it, the entire experience becomes exciting rather than overwhelming. My role is to help you explore your ideas, understand the financial landscape, and build an early vision that feels inspiring and achievable.
