## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I sent the company a message and got a very quick response from Steve. He sent me a very reasonable quote to remove a tree from my garden, including the stump, which I accepted. Work was carried out very quickly and professionally. The site was cleared, job done! Constant communication throughout. I cannot recommend Steve and his team highly enough. Look no further if this is the type of work you need doing, 10 out of 10 service."
> Source: Clare M (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Steve, Dave and Brian from S L Trees were recently contracted to remove a damaged sequoia for safety reasons. From signage ahead of the work informing locals of road closures, responsive email information at all times, communications have been great. Friendly team, happy to answer questions and have an audience whilst Dave was 70ft up the tree with a chain saw! Hugely professional and knowledgeable - we would have no hesitation in recommending them. 10/10 🙂"

> "Steve and his team give a fantastic service. We recently used them to remove a huge wellington sequoia that had been damaged by lightning. It was a massive job yet they dealt with it methodically and carefully and - extra bonus - with smiles! A very professional team. Cannot recommend highly enough."

## Before you hire a landscaper
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- 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.
