Highlights
"I contacted Grouts Gardening and Alistair came to look at the job and then provided a quotation by e-mail (very professional). A friend who's been helping me out since the passing of my jusband is busy with doing up his new home. Alistair and Lewis arrived on time, we went through the requirements again and they got on with it and did a good job but also cleared up really thoroughly. The work involved cutting back some dwarf trees and a laurel. I shall certainly use them again and have already recommended them to a few friends."
"Garden clearance was easily arranged and done very well. Hard working and efficient. Good value for money. Definitely will use again"

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.
