Lagoa · Algarve · since 2008

A family business, not a franchise.

We are gardeners from Lagoa. We build, water and maintain villa and holiday-home gardens across the central Algarve, with the same team from the first day to the last.

Our story

It started with a van and half a dozen gardens.

Agostinho started alone in 2008, in Lagoa, with a van and the first clients arriving through neighbours' recommendations. Today Agostinho Gardens is a fixed, insured team, but the phone is still answered by someone who knows your garden.

We work in Lagoa, Carvoeiro, Ferragudo, Silves, Portimão, Armação de Pêra, Algoz, Messines and Estômbar. Many of our clients are foreign holiday-home owners, so we are used to working while the house is closed: after every visit we send photos and a short report by WhatsApp or email.

Our technicians are licensed plant-protection applicators, and every piece of construction and planting we do carries a two-year guarantee. It is not the cheapest in the Algarve; it is the one still here when the garden needs it.

How we work

What you can expect from us.

Neatly mown lawn and tended borders in a private garden in the Algarve
  • The same team, every time

    The people who build the garden are the ones who maintain it. We know where every pipe and root is, and no subcontractors turn up unannounced.

  • Photo reports

    After every visit you receive photos and a short note of what was done. If you live abroad, you always know how the garden looks.

  • Plants for this climate

    Mediterranean species that get through August on little water, with zoned irrigation sized for each of them.

  • Licensed and insured

    Public liability insurance, certified plant-protection applicators and approved products, with a record of every treatment.

  • Two-year guarantee

    On all construction and planting, materials and labour. What is on the quote is what you pay.

  • Portuguese and English

    Two phone lines and a team used to clients from all over Europe. We reply within 24 hours.

Services

Four things, done with our own team.

We chose to do a few things and do them well. From earthworks to the weekly visit, there are no middlemen.
