    Thank you for your review. The customer's requested their hedge row height to be reduced, strimmed back, and made tidy. Also, to take away the green waste. The area was prepared, and the job was completed .

    Garden tidy / weeding

    Posted 09 September

    Quite a large rear garden and front that had become out of control over the summer. Initially had to put back a day due to rain but appreciated the update first thing in the morning so I could adjust my plans. Then I didn’t think they had time to complete the works but with 3 people they more than surpassed my expectations. They gave advice on what to remove/leave and gave the garden a complete going over in just over a day, something that would have taken me weeks. All waste was removed and the garden left in great shape.

    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
