    Painting and decorating 2 bed apartment

    Posted 24 September

    Darren undertook painting and decorating of my 2 bed apartment which had recently had structural refurb. He was polite, professional and reliable throughout . He worked diligently and has a real eye for detail. He was helpful in offering expert advice and was supportive throughout. I would highly recommend Darren and am delighted with the results of his work

    Great work on our patio and fencing

    Posted 05 September

    Great work by Darren and team! We love the result. Really helpful with advice and ideas, and very open and honest about any extra materials needed and pricing. Couldn’t have been more helpful with coming back to tweak any bits we wanted to change , they were very keen to make sure we were happy and to get it right. Lovely to have around. Thank you so much!

    Disappointed with Darren’s landscaping work

    Posted 28 August

    I would not recommend Darren to anyone. I paid half up front and, while I was away, my family found the turf laid badly gaps, dry patches, uneven levels, and edges on mortar. Darren blamed “shrinkage,” but it had been watered well. When challenged, he was threatening about payment but promised to fix it. Instead, he dropped a few scraps of turf into the same gaps and left without speaking to me. We also discovered no weed control barrier was used,after just 10 days weeds were already growing through slate and decking.The pergola was poorly built, out of alignment and not even at 90 degrees

    The worst job I have ever had done

    Posted 10 August

    We hired Darren to lay a new flagged patio area and path in our garden. Along with this we wanted a step extending and some sleepers fitting to the side of the flower beds. I don’t like leaving bad reviews, but I’m writing this because I wouldn’t want anyone to experience what we did. The preparation work was inadequate, for example, no hardcore was used and the area wasn’t flattened and levelled. Darren took up the turf, put some sand down and then laid the flags on that, concreted. The flags laid were far from level with each other. Several were at different heights to the adjacent one

    Response from Darren Leech Landscapes Ltd

    We have apologised to Peter for any inconveniences and we gave them every opportunity to respond and for us to come back and resolve the issue but I would like to stress they cancelled our meeting and appointment and gave us threats of bad reviews

    Darren helped us to create an area for a shed, decking, pergola and sleepers

    Posted 07 August

    Darren was an extremely reliable, hardworking tradesman who completed the work we required to an outstanding finish. Work was completed over 2 days where he communicated everything he was doing to ensure it was to our specifications.
