10 Very Happy with Garden Tidy Up
Posted 25 November 2025
Bob and Dan are lovely and did a big prune and hedge trim as well as digging out some plants. Bob pruned our apple trees properly too and gave us good advice for looking after them going forward. It was a big job and they took all the cuttings away and left the garden tidy.Verified reviewerJob location: TN359.67 Friendly, Knowledgeable and Tidy.

I hired Apple Garden Services for my elderly mum who needed garden maintenance work done. Bob and Dan were very friendly and both did great tidy work, left everything neat and did everything I asked for in a timely manner, It was great to have them and would recommend them to others looking for knowledgeable gardeners with a good work ethic.Verified reviewerJob location: TN3710 Clearing an overgrown garden and laying a new lawn.

I found Apple Garden Services to be completely professional and courteous and very reliable.Both Bob Roberts and Dan were punctual, and very hard working and very good in explaining as they were working, which they carried out exactly as were asked for.They were most careful in all the cleaning up afterwards. I most highly recommend them.Verified reviewerJob location: TN3710 Clearing garden of 6 years of overgrowth

The team cleared my garden after it being neglected for 6 years as a result of family illness. The garden was covered in brambles , weed and self-sown saplings which they cut back and removed but took care not to remove those plants I asked them to retain. They left the garden in a condition which has enabled me to start returning it to its previous condition I found bob and Dan a pleasure to deal with as they were polit, hard working, careful and tidy and would strongly recommend then and will be using them againVerified reviewerJob location: TN3810 Professional friendly service

My name is Bob Roberts and I have been seriously involved with plants for about 45 years.
Grew up on a family fruit farm, studied horticulture at Wye College , University of London, from 1970 to 1973, where I obtained my degree.
Ran the farm, growing top and soft fruit and some field vegetables from 1973 to late 1996 when I moved with my family to London.
Started Apple Garden Services in 1997, working as a sole trader with help when I need, especially for larger jobs.
I provide the following services;
weeding and clearing overgrown gardens, planting schemes and advice
erection of sheds, fences and trellis
preparation for and laying of lawns and artificial turf
building of patios and terraces
I particularly enjoy using my learning and experience in training and pruning plants to optimize their performance.
