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
Responded quickly, give a reasonable quote, arrived on time and did the job . Robin was pleasant and good natured even looked at a potential future job to give me advice. Couldn't ask for more will definitely use him again
Richard was punctual and arrived at precisely the time he stated, with professional kit and machinery. He is very personable and easy to talk to in order to discuss the job. We're really pleased with the results and would definitely employ him again for similar work. His quotation was easily the best priced from a small range of enquiries made and excellent value. Highly recommended.
Excellent service. quick, tidy and super. saved a lot of back ache and was such a professional job. many thanks

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
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.
