## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I contacted josh the day before as I had previous 2 gardners let me down. I saw that gosh had be reccomended by a few people I know so I thought I shall give him a try. Josh communication is quick and prompt which straightaway was a plus for me. Straightaway as soon as Josh saw my garden he knew what needed to be done to my grass, he treated my lawn before mowing. Fantastic work of high standards, neat and tidy work and a friendly chap. I have already booked in for September and passed details on to family and friends. You will not be disappointed with the service this company provides."

## Before you hire a gardener
_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.
