## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "My patio became unsafe some of the slabs had dropped and I tripped over leaving me with a very bruised face. A. James builders gave me a quote which I was happy with. They lifted all the slabs, leveled the base and relaid the slabs. They returned two days later to fill between the slabs after giving the cement time to set. I was pleased with the work that was done. They cleared up when they were finished. I would recommend them without any hesitation. They arrived on time, worked almost non stop apart when I made them a hot drink. It was particularly cold day."

> "A James Builders took up our existing drive, excavated the site to create a larger drive, built perimeter walls, steps and laid a new drive in block paving. The work was done on time and within budget, with a professional finish. We are pleased with the end result which has given us plenty of parking space and transformed the kerb appeal of our house."
> — Julian W (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "We were well satisfied with the work specified. Communication with the workforce was good and friendly and we would definitely recommend them."

## Before you hire a landscaper
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade — general guidance, not a claim about this business:_
- Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour — a vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
- Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials' — agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
- Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated — protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
- Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
