Garden repair and renewal
Posted 02 July
Richard & Nigel arrived in good time and worked efficiently on the labour intensive project. On the return visit, Richard arrived with Anne who, again, worked without a break. A friendly efficient service at a reasonable cost.

Tidy up of garden, cutting hedges, lawn care and weeding
Posted 24 June
Richard and his team are always friendly, polite and punctual. Richard is very knowledgeable about plants and their care. The first time I met him I was instantly impressed with him, so much so that I was prepared to wait (he is very popular) until he was able to schedule a visit. Richard and his team work quickly and efficiently and have always done a very good job. I have no hesitation in recommending Richard and his team.

Full garden makeover
Posted 25 April
If you're looking for a reliable, hard working and knowledgeable gardener Richard & Anne are amazing. My back garden was overgrown and neglected - they completely transformed the entire thing. Rock solid fence built, broken fence posts replaced, decking and fence jet washed, a jungle of weeds and ivy removed, old weed membrane and gravel replaced, fresh new turf laid down, and paving stones cleaned up, and a brand new raised bed built from scratch and installed + new flowers and weeding in the front garden done. Richard can do pretty much anything for a good price AND he'll turn up on time.

Garden weeding, grass cutting, & bush trimming
Posted 22 April
Our garden had been not looked after properly for a year. After booking a quotation appointment, Richard turned with assistance to complete the job of weeding, grass cutting, and bush trimming. The work was completed quickly and efficiently, leaving the garden in a very good state, much better than expected. Richard was very friendly and full of advice. The company offered to continue the service as per our request, and to accommodate additional, billable tasks. We agreed to set this up as a regular service as soon as garden waste collection resumed. Unfortunately they’ve not responded

Garden Revamp
Posted 17 March
Richard and Anne are two of the nicest people you could meet, their work is exemplary, arrived on time, and all the work was carried out to the highest standard, Richard built us a shed and is better than one you could buy anywhere. Would recommend them to anyone.

Garden Maintenance
Posted 04 March
Richard and Anne did an excellent Job. A new lawn was laid, curbing was installed around the lawn, weeding around the borders, a new garden gate made by Richard, a concrete base laid to stand our garden tool storage box on and the patio was jet washed finished with silver sand. We love our garden after the makeover. Thank you Richard and Anne
