A complete update of our garden was done, including extensive ground works for two patios, custom built pergola, fence panels painted, rework of current plants plus additional plants for larger borders, complete re turf. At all times everything was kept clean and tidy. Great recommendations for an electrician for outside electrics and Penkridge Woodcraft for bespoke builds. Amazing all round."

## Before you hire a gardener
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- 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.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
- Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work, and that they are current.
