"Can thank the ARK team enough. The professionalism was second to none, especially as the job took longer than initially thought due to complexity outside of their control. Very polite, professional and knowledgable. Already spoken to the ARK team about other work that needs doing. Again, outstanding work."

"I had a few issues in my bathroom such as leaking tap some tiles needed replacing. Micheal was very professional on the phone and a real gentleman. Being a woman on my own it's always a worry but he put me at ease straight away. Great work and highly recommend."

Mike from Ark was very helpful, he talked me through what needed to be done and gave me some options to rectify the problem, he was prompt, polite, tidy, and very reasonably priced compared to my other two quotes.

Mike is friendly, patient and efficient. He gives reliable suggestions and advice. Service cost is justifiable. Neat work, you don't have to clean up a lot after the job is completed.

Work was undertaken to a very high standard for a good price. We will definitely be using again in the future for jobs we need. We would definitely recommend to anyone requiring plumbing work.

Michael was very pleasant and professional. Went out of his way to fit me in as he knew I was going into hospital the next day. He explained exactly what he was doing and charged a very reasonable price. Very pleased with the service and wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.

Probably the best landscape gardener I’ve used. Went above and beyond expectations and very fair with pricing and time management. The job will be done correctly.

I couldn't have found someone better if tried. Work was great at a good price and the tradesman himself is friendly, honest and thorough.

I can not fault the service and work done by Ark. They kept me updated throughout the process and were exceptional. They cleared up afterwards and other than my trees trimmed you would not have known they had been.

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.
Good to know
