    Garden clearance

    Posted 29 July

    I had three very large bushes cut down to the roots and taken away. This is my second time of using Olive Gardening and I am very impressed with their services. I will definitely use them again and I would thoroughly recommend.

    Courteous, hard-working, honest and experienced.

    Posted 27 July

    Needed a large piece of astroturf removed, plus the sand and rubble underneath. I gave Sam the measurements and the depth of the sand underneath the bits i could roll back. We agreed me a price and a time. But I'd forgotten to tell him there are ten steps up to my house, and ten more up to the garden out the back! And then when they arrived, we discovered that in places there were five-six inches of sand to dig up! I suggested we re-negotiate the price, but Sam insisted on doing it all for the agreed price. They did an amazing job, courteously and efficiently.100 percent recommend.

    Clearing and tidying of overgrown gardens

    Posted 10 July

    We’re really happy with the work Sam and his team did. He managed to fit us in at short notice, which was a huge help. We had overgrown areas in the front and back gardens to clear, including around plants we wanted to keep, and they took great care with everything. The garden has been left looking so much neater and we’re really pleased with the result!

    overgrown garden ..maintenance of borders and lawn care.

    Posted 18 June

    My job ad was answered quickly, viewed and quoted the same day. They arrived and started at the time given. Worked very hard until completed. The garden was very overgrown so they had a job on their hands. Jobs included ..cut back grass , dig stingers out and clear border weeds, cut back shrubs. At the end they left tidy.Would recommend.
