Highlights

"We've used Ted before to prune some trees and shrubs in our back garden. Again, he did an excellent job. Couldn't fault him. Work to a high standard including a thorough tidying up exercise afterwards. Would thoroughly recommend Ted. Many thanks Ted."

"My gardens were a mess and I was overwhelmed by them. Ted spent a day here and everything is now under control. Ted just came in and got on with the job. He works very hard and is helpful and friendly. All the waste was cleared up and taken away. I would definately recommend The Hardy Gardener."

"Ted had been looking after our garden for a year now. We initially booked him for a one-off job to trim the hedge and give the garden a bit of a tidy up. We now have him come round every two weeks to maintain. He's knowledgeable and has given us advice and recommendations as to plants that will suit the soil and the amount of sun we get in the garden, and is currently working to restore what we thought was a bush back intk a tree! 😄 He's reliable and hard working. Would recommend his services."
