Highlights
"I hired Charles to clear an old shed, decking, paving slabs and lay a patio with brick edging, lawn with rope edging stones and a raised bed by the end wall. The patio was excellent, as was the raised bed, but the brick edging was dreadful and it took three attempts before we were satisfied. The rope edging was also badly done and we had to request a second attempt before he got that right. The lawn was laid unevenly and had to be relaid. The new turf contained several dead patches which Charles had to come and fill in. I'm hoping that a good fall of rain will finally make them green."
"Very pleased with Charles's work. Reliable and always communicated with us. Would recommend."
"If you want a garden jungle clearing, send for Charles Jones (C. Jones Roofing & Landscaping) who'll make short order of the work required, leaving the flower bed very neat and tidy, along with carting away all the arisings."

Before you hire a builder
Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
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.
Want an extra legitimacy check?
Run the Cowboy Checker on Charles Jones Landscaping before you contact them.
