My journey with landscaping began at the age of 13. I had ideas about creating a large pond in my parents’ garden. After meticulously planning the size and shape, the types of fish I wanted to stock it with, also the marginal plants and lilies.
The day arrived of the big dig!
My friend Andrew and I spent the whole day digging an enormous hole 6ft across and 3feet deep right in the centre of my father’s vegetable patch. It was an enormous hole, and I was very proud of it. My father upon returning from work was not quite so delighted with the huge void where his broad beans usually resided. But it was too late for being sentimental and time to embrace the future. Id saved my pocket money for months and was now showing dad the liner we required. Fortunately, my mum loved the idea so with her cohesion we were soon at top trop aquatics on Caerleon rd.
Years Experience
The pond was a huge success and a source of joy for all the family. My mum really enjoyed feeding time and watching all those colourful familiar faces popping to the surface to grab a pellet or two. It still resides today 40yrs later.
This was the start and from there I decided that a landscaper is what I want to be. At 16 I was working for a local company by the name of landscape 2000. Under the guiding wing of Mike Lyons. In 1994 At 22 the time had come for me to begin the dream of developing my own business.
Little did I know this was going to be the hardest road I’d ever take. The first 5yrs were extremely difficult. I quickly learned that every job must be done to the best and beyond my capabilities, learning new techniques and staying current with new standards was absolutely paramount. I ploughed profits consistently back into the business to invest in tools and machinery and after 30 years, still do!
It’s created a business with rock solid foundations, a recommendation rate beyond my wildest dreams and an immense source of pride.

Malpas Landscapes produced the most stunning garden for me in May 2022. I chose Gareth and his team as I had previously used them around 12 year’s ago and the result was fabulous.

Many thanks to Gareth and the team for transforming our garden. The level of service was outstandig from beginning to end and we were very greatful for his design suggestions.
They were polite, helpful and nothing was to much trouble, they cleaned up at the end of each day and left the place spotless at the end of the job. We can’t wait until next summer to sit and enjoy it. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone.
