Landscaping & gardening and Dumfries homes
Dumfries, the 'Queen of the South', is built largely of local red sandstone in the centre and Maxwelltown, with post-war council housing in Lochside and Lincluden and newer estates at Heathhall and Locharbriggs. Riverside areas near the Nith have a history of flooding.
- Stone boundary walls are common round older houses. Repointing or rebuilding them is a specialist job worth mentioning up front.
- Larger gardens round older villas often need hedges, walls and drainage work as well as patios.
- Front gardens in ex-council estates are often turned into driveways. Check whether you'll need a dropped kerb.
- Larger rural plots often need fencing, drainage and hardstanding as well as garden work.
Areas covered include Town Centre, Maxwelltown, Troqueer, Lochside, Lincluden, Georgetown, Heathhall, Locharbriggs, Summerhill, Larchfield, Calside, Noblehill. Local authority: Dumfries & Galloway Council.
