## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "We’ve had several jobs completed by Matt from Franklin Groundworks and have been consistently impressed with the quality of his work and his professional approach. He rebuilt and stained a poorly installed fence, re-grouted our large multi-level patio with real care and attention, and repaired cracked render despite difficult weather, even staying late to maintain progress. Matt is reliable, communicative and takes pride in his craft. We already have further projects booked and would happily recommend him."
> Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Excellent service from initial enquiry to job completion. Very good communications throughout. Lovely guy and I will be booking him again in the future for further works"
> Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Matt and his team did a fantastic job fitting a new patio and retaining wall down the side. Communication was excellent throughout. I had three quotes for the job and Matt was the most competitive by a long way. Would recommend and likely be calling on his services in the future."

## Before you hire a landscaper
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- 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.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
- Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work, and that they are current.
