What the flags above mean: they come from the official register and describe the company's current standing. They're worth asking the trader about before you commit. They reflect the registration, not directly the quality of its work. An overdue filing means a routine annual document is late at the registry, a paperwork matter, not in itself a sign of poor workmanship.

Fantastic service - fast, reliable and kind, professional and thorough
Excellent job clearing garden, was prompt to come and quote and prompt to come round as soon as it was dry
Gardner arrived within the time period that he said he would . Got to work straight away and worked quickly. He had all the machinery he needed . Took his shoes off in the house so did not make a mess. Lawn well cut and edges strimmed and pathways swept . He also removed weeds from front driveway and left it tidy . I am happy with the work he did .
