Highlights
“Recently had a problem with falling down soffits. Martin gave a fair quote, did a temporary repair until he had availability. He then turned up a week early and did an excellent job. Some unexpected problems were found requiring extra time and materials for which he only made a small extra charge. I would recommend this company without any hesitation.”
“Martin was efficient, listened, advised, was extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. He was professional from the outset, meticulous at every stage. He also took great care not to damage the garden or plants that he had to negotiate along the way. I would highly recommend him and his apprentice.”
“Having dealt with a number of other companies when obtaining quotes, Cladmaster stood out from the rest. Martin was efficient, listened, advised, was extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. He was professional from the outset, meticulous at every stage and went the extra mile to do a few unexpected repairs which were not in the original quote. He also took great care not to damage the garden or plants that he had to negotiate along the way. I would highly recommend him and his apprentice Charlie.”

Worth checking yourself
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.
