GET IN TOUCH 1963 The Beginning Over five decades ago our Company was started by the previous director Ronald Sleigh in the Bridge of Allan, initially using agricultural machinery. In 1966 we bought our first landscaping machinery and ventured into landscaping. In 1981 our Director Henry Sleigh joined his father and they expanded into Aberdeenshire and became a Limited company in 1984. From 2017 Henry’s wife Hazel became involved in the company carrying out the role of the current director. 2000 New Location 2000 We relocated to Croy, Inverness. We then employed teams of landscapers and grass cutters and a full time mechanic with a fully equipped workshop and also set up a full time office and started to expand our range of equipment and services. In 2016 we then relocated to Grigorhill Industrial Estate outside Nairn to further expand our growing business. 2018 Growing Quickly Over the last few decades we have continued to grow as a business, and opened a second premises in Nairn, we have one of the largest collections of landscaping and grass cutting equipment in Scotland and now operate multiple teams throughout. We have bases all over Scotland covering areas such as Wick, Aberdeen and Stirling The Team Henry Sleigh OWNER Henry Sleigh is Managing Director of Sleigh Landscapes.

He has a wealth of knowledge in all aspects of this field and ensured that Sleigh Landscapes performs efficiently and with the highest level of integrity. Henry has a special interest in machinery.

Environment & Sustainability We are committed to achieving sustainable development within the landscaping industry. When we design landscaping areas we recommend the use of planting that is native to that area, which wherever possible is accompanied by a certificate of local providence and sourced from our local supplier. When possible we rebuild any existing stone walls using the fallen or buried stone or we source replacements from the surrounding area. This also applies to any fencing or tree staking repairs that we undertake, we choose to re-use and recycle as much as possible. We relish the opportunity to depart from the idea that all grass cutting should be done to the same height preferring if agreed to increase the length as we progress away from the edge with a view to encouraging bio-diversity and wild flower meadows bringing positive benefit to wildlife. We maintain any existing wooded areas on the sites that we cover as we believe that maintaining the larger trees is an important part of our heritage and these wooded areas are often a vital habitat and food source to the local wildlife. We strive to maintain and enhance biodiversity with semi natural woodland. + Gardens Designed + Satisfied Clients m2 Turf Laid + Landscapers About Us Sleigh Landscapes have been operating as a Landscaping Contractor for over 50 years and employ a highly trained, experienced team of staff.
