2.67 Extremely disappointed with lack of communication
Posted 13 March
I am extremely disappointed on the service received. Whilst completing the tree works, the operators smashed several paving slabs where they dropped the tree limbs onto them. This was pointed out to Matthew and he said he would revisit to assess the damage which he did. However, since then (over two weeks ago) I have attempted to contact the company and I have received no reply from them at all. We will have to seek compensation via another route for the damage caused, as I have had no response from them. Such a pity, as I though checkatrade was a safe place to engage contractors.Verified reviewerJob location: SP10Response from ML Turner & Son
There were discussions about replacing to old existing area which was not in good shape to start with and had been laid poorly by the client . I went to see client as they actually wanted a price to replace it anyway. We have been way too busy to take on . I suspect a new area was wanted at no cost .
10 Super pleased !!!

10 Hedge removal and replanting
Posted 01 March
Matthew and team provided an excellent service. They are very knowledgeable about types of tree, hedging etc. Matthew provided advice on bothe hedge removal and replanting, and helped us choose the best option for our garden. The team worked very quickly, were very tidy and overall did an excellent job.Verified reviewerJob location: SN8 - GGraham K

Was well informed about the subject. This might sound odd, but i had three quotes, 2 of which said the word bushes constantly, where as Mathew used the actual names of each bush as we walked round. Also insistant that i looked at pictures of his work, again the other quotes just said, yeah we can cut that down. Also everyone else turned up in jeans and jumper, Mathew arrived in workwear appropriate to work in the garden. The point I am making is that anyone can turn up and quote to cut down a massive hedge, Matthew though got the job and did it great.Verified reviewerJob location: SN10 10 Dependability

Local family run business which takes pride in our work. Have been in this business since leaving school, many years ago. I have built my business on strong morals, great workmanship and customer satisfaction. I have built many regular customers over 15 years who continuously use our services. I’m looking to expand the business as I want something substantial for my son to take on and hopefully continue to provide our services for future generations…
