Alex was recommended to us by a colleague and what a great recommendation it was. Genuine, professional, friendly and knowledgable. Alex has started to turn our large overgrown back lawn into a thing of mowed beauty and yet totally understood my concept of leaving areas 'au natural' for the wildlife to enjoy. It is going to be a real pleasure to work with him on an ongoing basis to restore the beds and landscape areas. Thank you Alex!

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Detailed reviews
Work was completed to a high standard. Would recommend.
The garden and grounds had been neglected after the death of the owner. In preparation for the sale, Alex brought it back to life. He identified issues such as dead trees and removed them. High hedges were trimmed and plants tidied and restored. Once the lawns were mowed, any bare patches were filled with turf and Alex came back to continue his lawn care until it was returned to its former glory.

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
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.
