“Alfie and the team were great, very professional and helped with making choices without being pushy. They provided their expertise on materials to use and the best layout of the new garden. They pushed on through some adverse weather and never complained the whole time. We are so happy with the result and our fiends and neighbours wanted their details to get quotes of their own. The garden was left very clean and tidy and we enjoy using the new space. Thank you Griffin Contractors!”

Highlights
“Alfie and the team laid 3 patios, pathway and retaining wall. Extremely helpful through out on planning and work stages. Always prompt, on time and worked very hard. They were tidy, work around neighbours as they came and went, and were a pleasure to have around. Quality of workmanship excellent, talked through anything that was needed. Would use again and highly recommend.”
“We are very happy with new porcelain patio, blocked paved drive and front and back lawns that Alfie and his team laid fir us at the beginning of October. Despite the constant rain on several days, they still managed to complete this work within a week. They left the site tidy each day a did a thorough clean when the project was completed. We would highly recommend Griffin Contractors for their expertise in garden landscaping.”

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
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.
