Restaurant and Terrace Planting in Mallorca

A restaurant terrace has to be shaded, screened and presentable every single service, with none of the work visible. Describe the venue and we pass the request to companies that maintain hospitality spaces.

Covers, shade and the licence

Planting on a restaurant terrace is doing three jobs at once. It separates tables from traffic and from passers by, it softens a hard surface that is otherwise all tile and chair leg, and it has to do both without costing a cover.

Shade is the other half of the same decision. Where the sun lands between one and four decides which tables sell, and the answer has to fit whatever the town hall allows on a public terrace.

Maintenance is the part that gets underestimated. Planters in a high traffic space take damage, dry fast and need replanting more often than a garden does, so the sensible contract is frequent, short and outside service hours.

What venues most often ask for

  • Planters used to define and screen the terrace
  • Shade over the tables that catch the afternoon sun
  • Tough species that survive high traffic and heat
  • Seasonal replanting to keep the space looking fresh
  • Automatic irrigation hidden in the planters
  • Lighting for evening service
  • Green walls where floor space is too tight
  • Upkeep visits outside service hours

How your request reaches a company

Mallorca Landscapers is a comparison service. A request for a restaurant terrace goes to the landscaping companies on our list; they quote the work and carry it out, and any agreement is between you and the company you pick.

  1. 01

    Describe the job

    Tell us the property, roughly what you want and where it is. Photographs and a rough plan help, though neither is required.

  2. 02

    We match it

    The request goes to companies that work in your area and take on this kind of job at this size.

  3. 03

    They quote you

    Each company contacts you directly with its own price, timing and approach. We do not set any of it.

  4. 04

    You compare and choose

    Put the quotes side by side and take the one you want, or none of them. Using the site costs you nothing.

Can planters go on a public terrace?

That depends on your terrace licence and on the town hall. It is worth confirming before buying anything, and the company quoting can usually tell you what is normal in that municipality.

How often does a terrace need attention?

More often than a garden. Containers in constant use dry quickly and take knocks, so short frequent visits usually work better than a monthly contract.

Can work happen outside service hours?

Many companies will schedule around service. Say what the window is in your request so it reaches the ones that can.
