Highlights

"John from Willingdon Garden Services has just finished repairing our fence and has completed the job exactly as he advised and to estimate. He turned up at the agreed time and tidied up once he had finished. We have used John before and will be again, in fact he has already measured up for the next job."

Paul LCheckatrade5.0 rating

"We’re having building works undertaken, but had a large apple tree that we required removing prior to commencement. John was recommended to us so I contacted him to see if he could assist and he promptly replied. The apple tree is no more, John is hardworking, efficient and left the garden spotless. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anybody wishing to use his services."

"We have had John of Willingdon Garden Services carry out fencing work for us previously and knowing of his wide practical experience we asked him to re-lay a section of a concrete path which had started to crumble and break-up. We also asked him to lay a concrete base in the area where we store our Landfill and Recycling Bins. As on previous occasions, John arrived on time, kept us fully informed throughout, carried out the work to a high standard and fully cleaned up when the work was finished. We will certainly employ John again shou​ld the need arise.​"
