Highlights
"John and team were fantastic in transforming our garden. From initial planning stage through to completion the team were very professional and kept us up to speed on progress. The team were very polite and tidied at the end of each day. We are thrilled with the end result and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them or use them again in future."
"John and team have transformed my untidy, high maintenance front garden into a tidy, beautiful but low maintenance oasis. They left everything tidy each day, were very respectful of the neighbours and were a joy to have around. I would definitely use them again."
"We have just had JJ Gardening Services to complete a new block paved driveway at our home. Outstanding service from start to finish, kept me up to speed with progress along the way. Very happy with the finish provided by John and his team"

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 JJ Gardening Services Ltd before you contact them.
