Highlights

"They were brilliant. They tackled my very overgrown gardens, back and front, and cleared the lot. All of the resulting waste was taken away by them and for the first time in two years, I could see my shed! I would highly recommend this firm."

"The gardeners should have arrived on the 27th June, 2024, but they arrived the next day 28th June,2024 at about 4.30pm, their previous job over ran. Trimmed bushes, weeds out of the patio and sprayed the driveway with weed killer they said they would come back to clear the weeds. We spoke about the back garden next available date 15th July, 2024 at 11.00 am I agreed the date, time and price by e-mail. I paid them for the first job though i prefer to pay when the job is completed. But they did not turn up."

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.
