Review of recommended landscaping in Dogsthorpe, Peterborough

Review Date:
28th May 2022

Summary:

Completely cleared back garden of weeds, etc. Landscaped to our specifications, made two flower beds and then put resin down.  Supplied and fitted new gate and then cleared the front borders (which were not part of the original remit).

Comments:

Very pleasant men who worked very diligently and left the garden area clean and tidy. When finished it had been totally transformed and we are very pleased with the result. Thank you Jim and John.

Review of recommended new driveway installation in Stanground, Peterborough

Review Date:
21st March 2022

Summary:

Resurfacing tarmac drive with water permeable resin bonded gravel including remedying collapsed tarmac along line of drain on one edge of drive. 

Comments:

This was a complex job due to the size of the drive, the need to allow neighbours access across the drive and the poor state of the original surface which had collapsed along the line of a drain. John and Tony were meticulous in their work, carefully preparing the groundwork first and then laying the final surface. The end result is extremely pleasing. We love the colour (we had a wide range to choose from) and the finish is superb. My wife is a wheelchair user and finds the new surface extremely easy to use. The resurfacing extended along the path by the side of the house (previously paving slabs) and being able to do away with the gravel channels either side (because the new surface is water permeable) means the wheelchair no longer slips off the paving and gets stuck in the gravel. Not cheap but excellent value.

Review of recommended tree surgeon in Peterborough

Review Date:
25th February 2022

Summary:

  • Removal of overgrown ivy
  • Prunning of 2 x apple trees
  • Removal of overgrown rose brambles, honeysuckle and elderberry

Comments:

Jim did such a fantastic job for me. The ivy, which is such a menace, had covered the entire fence so he removed it all. The fence that was revealed underneath is in a very poor state and will need to be replaced this year. In order to drill and kill the ivy roots, the fence will need to be removed so both of these jobs will be co-ordinated together.

One of the flower-bed borders was also so overgrown with brambles and out-of-control plants. Jim cut all of this back and then removed all the debris from the garden.

Jim is a true professional with a really lovely nature - he is always smiling. You couldn't ask for a nicer or more pleasant chap. I would give him 11/10 for everything if I could.

Review of recommended driveway surfacing & landscaping in Woodston

Review Date:
14th October 2021

Summary:

Resurfacing a gravel driveway, weeding & dressing along a fence with weed membrane & topping with gravel.

Comments:

The job done by John & Jim was prompt & the final result is brilliant.

They had quite a challenge as our driveway had basically turned into a meadow, as the person that did the work previously hadn't done a professional job.

They worked throughout 2 days digging out the previous drive, compacting & relaying new gravel. I'm incredibly happy with the work & 100% recommend them. I will certainly be back for any other work we have in future.

Review of recommended landscape gardener in Parnwell, Peterborough

Review Date:
4th May 2021

Summary:

  • Pruning conifer hedge
  • Connecting waterbutt to new downpipe
  • Supplying new paving slab and creating small flowerbed with gravel frontage

Comments:

Jim did a brilliant job on the hedge and got the waterbutt operational. New flowerbed enhanced with gravel frontage plus a 'stepping stone' slab laid as requested. Charged a fair price, worked tirelessly and created a very good result. Will be inviting him to tackle our front hedge at the end of the year.
