Working Auchterarder plots, week in, week out.
Coverage across PH3
Auchterarder is a short 20-minute run from our Crieff yard via the B8062. We cover the whole of PH3 — the town's long High Street plots, the surrounding executive estates, the Gleneagles-fringe properties, and rural PH3 out toward Aberuthven, Dunning and Blackford. Because we're close, we scope PH3 jobs the same way as home turf.
Response times to Auchterarder
Most Auchterarder site visits are booked within a working day. Because we already run the B8062 several times a week, small callouts and quick quotes are practical here — no need for a full-day round trip to justify a visit.
Familiarity with Auchterarder property types
Auchterarder's plots are noticeably bigger than the Perth or Crieff average. Long back-gardens behind the mile-long High Street. Executive-estate plots on the Gleneagles fringe with mature parkland trees. Larger rural properties toward Aberuthven and Dunning with shelter belts and long boundary hedge runs. That means the work here skews to bigger fencing runs, mature tree management and full landscape projects rather than small tidy-ups.

Every service linked below is a full, self-contained page — pricing basis, methods, materials, guarantees and FAQs.
Tree Surgery
Mature parkland beech, oak and Scots pine on the estate-fringe plots — reductions, thinning and safe fells done to industry standard.
Read full service pageFencing
Long runs of pressure-treated close-board and post-and-rail — the executive-plot standard, not thin panel-line replacements.
Read full service pageSoft Landscaping
Full garden transformations for larger PH3 plots — planning, ground works, planting and finishing in one project.
Read full service pageHedge Trimming & Removal
Long beech and hornbeam hedge runs common on the rural PH3 lanes — annual cuts and reductions with all waste removed.

Full-depth gravel drives of real length — proper edging and drainage, not gravel over membrane.

20 minutes from base
Auchterarder is a short run from Crieff — small quotes and callouts are viable here, and larger projects don't get held up by travel.
Standard-of-finish work
PH3 properties expect the job done properly the first time. We spec heavier, install deeper, and finish cleaner than the panel-fence-and-hope brigade.
Fully insured, SEPA registered
Public-liability insurance and legal waste-carrier registration — no informal bonfires, no dumping, no shortcuts on disposal.
Written fixed price
Free site visit, written quote, no deposit. The number on the quote is what you pay.
Auchterarder plots we work on.
High Street long-plot gardens
The mile-long High Street means unusually long, narrow rear gardens. Access is often through a side lane. Boundary hedge maintenance, tree reduction and full-length landscaping are recurring briefs.
Executive estates & Gleneagles fringe
Larger detached plots, mature parkland trees, established shelter belts. Big-project work — fencing, tree management, transformation-scale landscaping.
Bungalow & family-home estates
Standard front and rear plots, panelled fencing that's due for replacement, occasional single-tree removals. Straightforward work done properly.
Rural PH3 (Aberuthven, Dunning, Blackford)
Longer boundaries, working shelter belts, post-and-rail runs and gravel driveways of real length. Larger continuous projects rather than half-day visits.
What comes up in Auchterarder.
Wind exposure on the Strathearn edge
Auchterarder sits high on the southern edge of Strathearn — westerlies come in strong. Panelled fencing on any exposed boundary is a short-term fix; concrete-posted close-board is our default replacement.
Ageing shelter-belt conifers
Estate-scale shelter belts of mature Scots pine, larch and Douglas fir are common. As they age, wind-throw risk climbs — thinning and phased removal is preferable to the storm's version of the same.
Overgrown long-plot hedges
The unusually long back-gardens off the High Street produce equally long boundary hedges — often 30–60 metres — that only get reduced when they've become bare-based and 12ft tall.
Compacted ground under new lawns
Larger PH3 plots often had heavy site traffic during build; developer topsoil is thin and subsoil is pressed hard. New lawns fail without proper cultivation and drainage first.
Driveway edges failing on gravel-over-membrane installs
The common shortcut — gravel poured over weed membrane — fails inside 12 months on any driveway with vehicle turning. Full-depth builds with proper edging are what actually last.
