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.

These are the individual reviews we hold for Be Wise Garden Services, including the highlights above. The 246 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
Sam is brilliant. He listened to my requirements, suggested ways to carry these out and worked like a Trojan until he finished the work. He was punctual, polite and productive. I highly recommend him and will definitely employ him again.
Sam was quick to respond to my enquiry and very clear on what work was needed and the cost. He worked for two days clearing/weeding/pruning my front beds and the back garden. These areas had been completely neglected for a couple of years due to illness. Sam has restored them to a clear usable space, I’m really happy with the results. He is very thorough and has done a great job! Highly recommend.f
Sam was really quick to respond to my request, he understood initially what I was after. A couple of days later, he came over and I showed him what the issues in my garden were, and we discussed what options I had. A couple of weeks later (due to both our schedules), he came over and did the work. Initially it was supposed to be 1.5 days, but it ended up being 1 day due to the weather, and with that he also bought James with him. They both did a fantasy job! I have regained access to a shed, and a nice patch of space, which I’m looking forward to seeing what I can grow there/do with it.

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
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.
