Weedfree Landscapes win Marshalls regional award

Staff at a Mansfield landscaping firm are celebrating after winning a regional award for their hard work.

Weedfree Landscapes Ltd, based on Westfield Lane, are well-known landscape and grounds specialists which have been serving the Mansfield district and the East Midlands region for around 20 years.

They recently received a best new member award at Marshalls UK regional awards in Leicester after their job, which involved levelling a private homeowner’s garden, impressed a panel of judges.

Tim Bower, managing director of the family run business, says he was pleased to win the award and says the honour has boosted staff morale.

“We did not really expect to win the award, the standard was extremely high but to be judged the best was fantastic,” he said.

“Staff were really pleased that we won, now some of the lads are coming up with ideas on how to make things that bit better.

“The job involved a garden on a slope and it was quite a complicated job and involved a lot of communication with the customer but they were very pleased with the end result.”

The company works on a range of commercial, domestic and public sector clients including projects for schools, universities and hospitals

“The award has made a big difference, it’s a bit of extra insurance for customers, they trust what you are telling them a bit more,”added Tim, who has worked at the business for 10 years and recently took charge from his father.

“We’re already looking at what we can improve for other jobs which we have.

“No matter where you are or how many sites you have, Weedfree landscapes always have a specialised team to meet your requirements.”
