Good job tidy after finished Polite
AGM (affordable grounds maintenance)
Rating: 4.4 out of 5
Gardener in County Durham
I have 12 years experience in landscaping/grounds maintenance in which I have gained a very good knowledge mostly around grounds maintenance and my strengths are definitely hedge trimming/reductions, tree pruning, lawn mowing, turfing and fencing. I have NPTC certification’s for cross cut and felling trees up to 380mm, basic tree inspection course, PA1 and PA6 weed killer application, stem injection for Japanese knotweed, eco plugs for tricky stumps, and various others. I am currently working full time as a grounds maintenance manager which is why customer satisfaction is always at the forefront of my work, but I can always make time for your work as no job is too small so the saying goes. If you have Japanese Knott weed on your property please get in touch as this is taken very seriously and could lead to prosecution if not treated properly.

Garden Maintenance- 1 Aug 2024
Excellent service did a great job on front left a lot of shrubs and trees not cut. They fit round our schedule. We have hired Adam to maintain the gardens too. He has not been back. Very happy with the job. Until they did not come back and have not finched the back garden as promised. Cleared stumps of front garden trees, mowed Lawns, trimmed hedges and planted flowers. We bought flowers at £372 only took off £150 for not supplying flowers. Have contacted to come back and just get excuses. Have hired someone else as sick of waiting.

Garden Maintenance- 23 Oct 2023
Chris and Debbie are grafters, they arrived when they said and just got on with the job at hand. We have 3 gardens, front, back and side. All were overgrown, had dead or out of control plants on moving in our new home. Everywhere was spick and span when they left having taken all clippings (grass and hedges), old fence and general detritus with them. We had a new fence and gate which are perfect. We love our new garden and can’t recommend Chris and his team more.

Garden Maintenance- 6 Oct 2019
My plastic garden shed was not completed. The builder failed to complete the roof and window. The floor was totally unstable. He left the uprooted plants within my garden, although he promised to clear them out. His work was not of good standard. I won't recommend him to anyone, unless if you are happy to be messed about and left stranded. I contacted him asking for him to complete the job but no response.

Hard Flooring- 24 Aug 2020
What a positive experience. I'm so happy I hired Dan. Now have reconditioned original floorboards which was what i really wanted but thought I couldn't have. All because of his knowledge and him being able to source replacement 'original' boards . Amazing. Lovely, professional, versatile, trustworthy, flexible. I could go on at length... I have already asked him to complete further work and recommended him to friends. So happy 😊

Landscaping- 29 Apr 2025
David came to the rescue. After I had started the job myself as a DIY. I had dug out and put down non-square sleepers he came in a did a great job of laying the porcelain. This included awkward angled cuts to counteract the off-square sleepers I had laid. He comes with enthusiasm and his work is high quality. He also protected other parts of the garden/drive before using equipment and left it completely clean and tidy. Really happy with his work and would recommend
