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.

Highlights
“Joe and his team and professional, polite, hard working and very high quality, from first contact through to the finished project. They remodelled our small(ish) city garden near Seven Dials, laid a herring bone brick patio, built a new set of brick steps, added large planters, laid a beautiful sandstone flag upper level. Joe helped with material choices, and adapted a design from pictures we'd found, steered us away from doing a couple of stupid things (!), and gave good tips on planting for the remodelled area. Also totally competitve on price with other quotes.”
“Joe and his team did a wonderful job turning a planned ordinary re-newal of paving in our rear garden to something very special. His recommended paving materials and suggestions of additional features has made the area somewhere we want to spend a lot of time in. His attention to detail and precision were remarkable. We cannot recommend him more highly.”
“Joe and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with. Warm and friendly, helpful guidance from the beginning, great passion and work ethic, completed on time, great attention to the detail, brilliant communication all the way through. We’re so pleased with the garden and would recommend Royal Gardens to anyone. We’ll definitely use them again in the future.”

Worth checking yourself
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.
