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.

Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for Groundhogs Garden and Tree Care Specialists Ltd, including the highlights above. The 132 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
The company contacted me to arrange a quotation on Saturday . I confirmed that this date was free. However no-one came. I left a voicemail around lunchtime as no-one answered the phone. I left an email at 4pm to which I still have had no reply. So I wasted the whole day doing non-essential jobs while I waited. I am not impressed by the lack of customer care and will not ask this company for a quote in future.

Worth checking yourself
Their public rating is on the low side. Read the most recent reviews yourself before deciding.
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
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.
