Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Highlights
Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for Global Landscaping and Drives, including the highlights above. The 115 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
Avoid. Unfortunately a very stressful experience. While some landscaping elements were acceptable. DO NOT let them build you a roof. The porch roof was built incorrectly. Multiple independent roofing inspections confirmed serious defects requiring a complete rebuild. I had to appoint another contractor at my own cost to make it safe and compliant. Issues were not handled professionally. Faced resistance and pressure rather than accountability.
Initially happy with works carried out June 2025. After heavy downpour guttering overflowing, (whole unit needs lifting.) From end July have made numerous contacts with the foreman by telephone calls and WhatsApp with resulting in promises to visit to resolve the issue but I'm still waiting 3 months later, despite supposed 5 year guarantee of work.

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.
