GreenThumb Borders
Lawn Care Treatments, Repairs and Maintenance Services in Borders
Welcome to GreenThumb Borders
Adam Stannard started his GreenThumb business 1st April 2014 and now has a dedicated customer base and an experienced team of 16 employees.
Originally, Adam is from Red Deer, Alberta, Canada. He now lives in Edinburgh and since he was previously in the agricultural industry it seemed a very natural move into lawn care. With this wealth of knowledge and previous franchise experience it has been a smooth transition into the lawn care industry.
Together with his staff they have more than 150 years’ experience treating lawns. They will continue to improve on the exceptional lawn care that their customers deserve.
The territory they look after is very diverse, from heavy clay soil to peaty soils. Moss and thatch are big issues for the local lawns and yet in summer the weather can still cause the lawns to dry out and overheat. We are always here to help with these common issues and any other problems affecting the lawn.
We are passionate about lawns and our aim is to continue to give exceptional customer service and wonderful lawns.
If you have a question, please feel free to get in touch. We will be more than happy to visit and assess your lawn’s condition and needs. This is free of charge and without any obligation.

Frequently Asked Questions
When can I start using GreenThumb?
You can adopt our services at any time of the year. There is never a ‘bad time’ to start improving your lawn.
Do I have to be at home when you come and treat my lawn?
The majority of our customers are not at home when we call. Since all our vehicles and Lawn Operatives are self-sufficient, we can carry out your treatments as long as we have access to the lawns.
If you would prefer to be in when we are treating your lawn, we will do our best to accommodate your request.
I have children and /or pets. What should I be aware of?
We recommend that you keep off the lawn until any liquid part of the treatment has dried (approx. 2 hours). This stops it being walked off. And this is especially true of our NutraGreen Autumn Long Treatment, we recommend that you keep off the lawn for more than 2 hours then as it could stain a carpet or wooden floor, if it were walked into the home.
Grazing pets such as rabbits and guinea pigs should be kept off the lawn for a minimum of two weeks or three cuts, whichever occurs latest, to avoid ingestion of Ragwort, in particular, which becomes poisonous to them as it dies back.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No, we want our customers to continue with GreenThumb based on our merits in creating a healthier, greener lawn for them - not because they are stuck in a contract. Of course, with our treatment programmes, you will need to sign a Direct Debit Mandate with the relevant T&C's which relate to this payment option.
