    AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

    Would not recommend. The invoice included pulling weeds, clearing the garden, levelling the ground and laying a strong weed membrane. The garden was never levelled, weeds weren’t removed, and polythene was used instead of a suitable permeable membrane. They also arrived at 5:45pm without asking and used a strimmer and chainsaw until around 9pm, disturbing neighbours. When we complained, we were told it would cost an extra £750 to correct the issues. Extremely disappointed with the workmanship and service

    Response from Local Leafy Landscapes

    I am very sorry to hear you feel this way, but I’ve discussed everything with your Sun. Your son gave me the go-ahead was happy for me to do what I wanted and I did do what I want and your Sun was happy with that. You should have discussed what you wanted before I started the job not after I am very sorry for this.

    Pond Maintenance / Cleaning

    Making sure the pond liner fitted better & installing a new pump

    I really needed the help to give me a new pond. Fred was very helpful & he was able to take half of the payment & the rest at the end of the month. I really appreciate that
