Great work very impressed with the job, very good communication from the very beginning, flexible working because both my husband and I was at work for the major of the time. Worked really quickly and with professionalism. Contract issued on commandment. Very high quality materials and great finishes and touches

Patio Garden

We’re so happy with the work Neil has done on our garden. He installed new artificial grass, fencing, a pathway and a patio step, and the whole transformation is amazing. The quality of the workmanship is excellent, and everything was finished with great attention to detail. It’s made such a difference to the space – we love it. Highly recommend Neil!

Top Quality Garden Upgrade

Really pleased with the decking work done in my garden. The job was completed to a high standard and the finished result looks great. Communication was clear throughout, they turned up when they said they would, and everything was left tidy at the end.
The team were professional, hardworking, and took pride in their work. I’m very happy with how it’s turned out and would definitely recommend them to anyone considering decking or similar work.

Decking Installation

Neil was great from start to finish, turned up on time and along with his colleague worked flat out all day to get the job finished. Work area all left tidy and the shed base is spot on. Highly recommend and great value , will be using again in the new year.Cheers Neil 👍

8X16 Shed Base

Neil is an amazing landscaper . We had our front lawn re turfed and new hedges sown. He did a great job digging up the whole old lawn which had become a weed forest of sorts and covered it with fresh top soil and returfed it . 
He also suggested the best hedging for our needs and did all of this at an affordable and reasonable price . 
I am definitely getting Neil to do our back garden returfing too in a few months time .

Great job with attention to detail

The transformation in my garden from these guys was incredible!! I don’t have a massive outside space, but within a week they worked hard - come rain or shine (…shaking off injuries) to get the agreed job complete. I couldn’t be happier. They took my vision & worked around difficulties of access with a smile (taking on feedback or proposing solutions if I needed) Would highly recommend.

Quality finish by reliable & hardworking team.
