Highlights
"Garden clearance, tree planting & turf replacement for a small yet VERY overgrown garden - including two runaway bamboo bushes. We had an inventory photo as a reference and Ryan matched it perfectly. He not only shaped the bamboo above ground but also cut all roots back under the ground - tough work. The lawn was full of well-established weeds and Ryan cleared all of these, laid new topsoil and then turf. An incredible transformation. We're delighted, and our landlord messaged to say he was impressed. On top of being professional and hard-working, Ryan is a great guy and very easy to talk to."
"Ryan came and did an excellent job in my little patio garden, sorting out an overgrown ivy and clematis. He left the place clean and tidy, removing all the cuttings and loose leaves. I am very happy with the result."
"Really good communication, friendly and quick service. Definitely recommend!"

Smart checks
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.
