Highlights
"Overall the service was good, and really fast. They got rid of the rubbish at the end which was a bonus, and generally they were professional and did a good job. I would definitely recommend them, and already have."
"S&M Garden Services did a fantastic job on my garden. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, friendly and clearly cared about their work. They made the whole garden look fresh and tidy, with neatly shaped hedges, a perfect lawn and colourful flower beds. It was a pleasure having them work here, and it’s clear they take real pride in what they do."

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.
