Landscape design and build; new walls, paving, decking and sleeper terracing
We were absolutely delighted with Matt and his team from first estimate through to the finished product.  We couldn't fault their work, which thanks to Matt's design has transformed our garden. Every member of the team were at all times polite, friendly, professional, and tolerant of two young children taking a keen interest in their work!  We would heartily recommend Roots Upwards.

Garden Redesign and Landscaping
It was a very big job levelling and redesigning our garden. Matt and his team are perfectionist and nothing was too much trouble for them. The job overran due to poor weather but we were kept updated at all times. It is obviously not a cheap job but we had got 3 other quotes and Matt's was very competitive. Would thoroughly recommend
