Highlights
"Frank has now completed lots of tree work for us in our garden. So far he has removed eight conifer trees. Frank arrives when he says he is going too, he gives a fair quote for the job to be done and completes the work in a safe and professional manner. Frank always leaves the area clean and tidy once completed. We have no hesitation in recommending Frank to complete tree work in a garden setting. John works with Frank, both are kind, honest and hard working. We are so pleased that they have been such an asset."
"Frank made a great job of pruning my apple tree & pear tree. Both trees needed fairly vigorous pruning, which Frank accomplished whilst maintaining a good shape to both trees. He checked that he was performing the pruning as I expected several times during the work and made an excellent job of removing all of the pruned branches and leaving my garden very tidy."
"Work was carried out on my garden the guys made a good job well done"

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.
