Highlights
“Jim Foster did a superb job. He was innovative, hard working with exacting standards. I have recommended him and service to a number of family and friends.”
“Jim submitted a very fair quote, which was a relief to my very tight budget. Having agreed a date for the job, he actually was able to fit it in a few days early. He discussed my preferences and answered my questions so I was able to leave him to carry on. I returned to find my two out-of-control trees reduced to very pretty rounded shapes which are now in proportion with the garden size. Would heartily recommend.”

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.
