Highlights
"Paul and Neil did a great job digging out my sad looking front garden and replacing it with Indian sandstone paving. It looks so much better than before and I really appreciate all their efforts"
"We chose AP Builders to carry out the work in our kitchen as they talked through what we needed, explained everything in detail, were very reassuring and the cost was very reasonable. The work was carried out from the date that had been agreed, both Paul and Steve were a pleasure to have in our home and we are very pleased with the outcome. They ensured that we were happy with the work they had carried out and took on extra work that we requested as the project progressed ."

Smart checks
Before you hire a landscaper
Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour — a vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials' — agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated — protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
