About Robshaw's

Meet Jake & Pippa — The Specialist Middle Ground Between A Tree Surgeon & A Gardener.

Established in 2016 by Jake Robshaw and now with over 4,200 jobs completed across Harrogate and the surrounding 30-mile radius. Jake and Pippa specialise in the small, tedious and tremendously transformative work that defines a distinguished garden — the jobs tree surgeons won't bother with, and typical gardeners aren't qualified for.

From a rambling rose carefully removed around a bird's nest, to transforming three acres of neglected communal grounds over four years — the team's knowledge, care, punctuality and genuine passion for nature shine through in every single published review.

"We tackle the jobs tree surgeons could do without, and typical gardeners just aren't qualified for." — Jake Robshaw, Founder

Jake has helped transform almost 3 acres of neglected communal gardens over the last 4 years. From poorly managed, overgrown and untidy he's helped shape them into lovely outdoor spaces which now look loved, lovely and cared for. Everything from superb hedge maintenance and replanting, ground work, planting schemes (including a wild flower garden) tree and shrub planting, maintenance and shaping. He's a great communicator and will listen to your needs. I highly recommend Jake.

Jake gave us a competitive quote to remove a rampant rambling rose. On his first visit he discovered a bird's nest with young chicks and abandoned the work to a later date. Some weeks later he returned to complete the work through a torrential rain storm. The work was done diligently and they cleared everything away. I am really pleased with the result.

Nice to deal with someone who still takes pride in what they do and not just out there to grab money. Removed a hawthorn hedge for me and removed my failed attempt at cutting it down 6 months before. Prompt, easy to deal with and a fantastic job done for a great price! Highly recommend!

We have been delighted with Robshaw's hedge trimming services. Jake and his partner make a great team and they leave your garden spotless, even after the most challenging of jobs. The hedges look fabulous. Nice to meet such lovely people.

I am extremely satisfied with the service provided by Jake. His knowledge of each plant species and tailored trimming approach really impressed me. He and Pippa ensured the garden was spotless by gathering all the cuttings. Jake's punctuality and efficiency were noteworthy. I'll definitely be booking him again next year!

★★★★★

Jake managed to juggle a busy schedule to fit in a last-minute trim of our very fluffy hedges. He did a nice soft curved edge and the hedges look neat and NATURAL. He seemed to have a genuine passion for nature and his job. Very reasonable price and great service all around.
