Detailed reviews
Cold December days didn't deter Francis and his team - Norah, Annabel and James - from clearing ground and replacing a fence. All of the team worked hard and effectively to provide what we asked for at the agreed price. We are pleased with the result and would recommend them.
Francis and Norah removed invasive bamboo from my garden; they also cleaned out the pond which had become extremely overgrown. The service was very efficient and friendly and I would have no hesitation in asking them to do further work for me.

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.
