“This is our second contract with MQ and once again, our expectations were met and surpassed. Mo and his team installed a patio and refreshed some steps, all done in around 3 or 4 days (including one VERY wet day!). They work incredibly hard and the finished product is to a high standard. You are kept informed of any additional costs and progress along the way. Would not hesitate to recommend MQ Groundworks and will definitely use them again in future when the need arises.”

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
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.
