Highlights
"Excellent in every way . The work which was hard digging and soil distribution was carried out enthusiastically and efficiently. In 6 hours hard work no time was wasted. The price for this was very fair. I am pleased with the result Martin Jones"
"Toem and Denis from Loveagarden have done a great job removing my invasive 15-ft bamboo, shredding the stems and foliage, digging out the roots, replacing a damaged fence panel and re-planting with a 10-ft pleached holly for future screening, replacing lost soil with fresh topsoil and compost and tidying up, while behind the scenes Christine, who has magically transformed my garden over the past two years, organised a skip for the bamboo removal and sourced the holly. I am delighted how smoothly it has all gone, despite the weather, and all at very reasonable cost!"
"Great admin being very responsive and kept us informed during the whole process. Very happy with the work and Tom and Dennis were very polite and pleasant to have around. Would use again. Stephen"

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 Loveagarden before you contact them.
