Highlights
"I had several fences replaced and am extremely happy with it. Staff very friendly and approachable also very tidy when they work. Any questions I had were answered with ease and reasonably priced aswell."
"Amazing service and quality by Shaun from SW Gardening. Within just 3 days I had my entire side fencing, front and back replaced - it looks amazing and has really transformed our garden, the neighbours are also very pleased as we are a corner plot and previously there was a large, over hanging bush before we bought the house. The job was so good I got Shuan to come back a few weeks later to install a new driveway gate for us, again, amazing work. My partner and I couldn't be happier."
"Shaun was phenomenal! A one man machine - he completed the job in one day and was very easy to work with -really helpful and communicative and went above and beyond to get the job done to the specifications we’d requested. He was tidy, courteous and came and checked requirements with me during the job. Becky was also really helpful and communicative in arranging and invoicing for the work. All in, can not recommend SW Gardening’s services more highly and hoping they’re free to come back and do the same again this year."

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.
