Highlights
“I recently hired Costiff Gardeners, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, friendly, and knowledgeable about their work. The team handled everything—from weeding, to reshaping the lawn, and purchasing the plants I wanted for the beds—with real attention to detail. They worked efficiently, cleaned up thoroughly afterwards, and left the garden looking the best it has in years. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, skilled and hardworking gardening service. I’ll definitely be using them again!”
“Extremely happy with the work carried out by Mark and his team. They were very professional and thorough, very friendly and super tidy. We would highly recommend them to others!”
“Costiffs did an excellent job of replacing our horrible gravel with beautiful new turf. They were more expensive than other quotes, but once you see the difference in quality of their work and professionalism you realise you get what you pay for. We cannot fault anything throughout the process. Highly recommend giving them a chance even if they aren't your cheapest option, you won't regret it.”

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.
