We had been considering laying artifical turf for a number of years having returfed our lawn several times, only for it to develop patches and start cracking. We needed a functional space we and the children could use all year 'round. Lifetime Lawns' quote was reasonable compared to others we had, and we went with them based on their reviews and that they were local. The team were friendly, polite, considerate and worked very quickly. Whilst the lawn has only been down a month or so, the quality of both the finish and product appear to be fantastic. The choice of artifical turf on the market is a little bewildering, but Trulawn appear to be one of the stronger brands in terms of quality (although time will tell, but it does come with a guarantee). We went with the Luxury finish, which is described as their most 'realistic' looking grass. We're certainly pleased with the end result, and at certain times of the day (depending on light) you'd be hard pushed to tell it was artificial. It seems robust enough to stand up to football, paddling pools etc (although I have purchased a small pump to empty the pool as opposed to dumping gallons of water on our nice new lawn) and the children love running around barefoot. The surface gets quite warm in strong sun (to be expected given the material) but also retains heat nicely in cooler sunny weather. It also dries very quickly following rain. We now have a functional, attractive and low maintenance space the whole family can enjoy all year and are using the garden more than we ever have before. A worthwhile investment.

We had artificial grass installed in the spring by Wayne's team and we are so pleased with the result. Our garden looks great, is really low maintenance and it's fab for our young children to play on. The team were really friendly and very tidy, we would definitely recommend Lifetime Lawns.

I chose Lifetime Lawns because of their consistent 5 star reviews and I’m glad I did, such professional and quality workmanship done to a very high standard. I expected to have to tidy up a little afterwards but Wayne’s team left my garden looking spotless and amazing. I would thoroughly recommend Lifetime Lawns

Rating: 5 / 5

Wayne and his team were totally professional from beginning to end and we recommend them highly. We had a few quotes but theirs was the most thorough and yet not the most expensive. They worked hard, were a pleasure to have around the house and we are absolutely delighted with the job. They cleaned up at the end of each day and left no trace of the job behind them at the end. Our front lawn was a difficult patch despite not being particularly large, very difficult to keep grass on and it looks wonderful now. Don't hesitate to use Lifetime Lawns.

Mark and Sharmayne listened carefully to our brief and were able to create a magical mood in our beautiful garden. They were a pleasure to work with, and were quick to respond to changes that inevitably came up. Very professional, supportive and with good communication. We are delighted with our new garden.

Mark and Charmaine were amazing! They actually listened to what we would like our garden to offer us and came up with a design to suit. What was great was that we had very fixed ideas about the planting but they discussed with us what they think would work as well as we would like based on the mood board we did. Boy, did they deliver! The plants are fair filling in now (only planted a handful of months ago) and look amazing! Couldn't recommend them more.

We have a small backyard that was bitty, unattractive and dull. Ivy & Whyte came up with a design that pulled it all together, lightened the whole area and made it both attractive and interesting. They devised a planting scheme to create the "jungle" effect we wanted in a small space and they subsequently supplied the plants and carried out the planting. All in all we are happy with the outcome.

Rating: 5 / 5

Ivy & Whyte have been brilliant from start to finish when designing our garden. I’m so glad we choose them. Mark was so helpful and always on hand to answer any questions, going above and beyond. We get so many comments on how beautiful our garden is. Thank you Ivy & Whyte. Well worth the investment!

David has been helping get my garden in order once a week for a few hours, and the amount he gets done and the attention to detail is excellent. Worth every penny, thank you David!

Really professional. Our huge 80feet long hedge was a real challenge but 3 guys worked tirelessly all day to reduce it down to a manageable 10 feet tall. They shredded and removed all the trimmings and raked the lawn clean leaving everywhere perfect! Highly recommended

Did a great job replacing our collapsed old fence with a new Jackson's tradition fence. Polite and professional team worked hard to complete 22m of fencing in 2 days. Left garden neat and tidy. Thank you. Highly recommend.

Excellent tree people. Had a couple of quotes to remove an unsightly christmas tree from my elderly father’s front garden. NJ Apps were the most competitive, come when they said they would, chopped tree, ground stump, cleared up and removed all debris. Fantastic service, Will use them again in my own garden. Thoroughly recommended.

We had a number of trees felled and the roots ground out , also one pruned. The work was carried out efficiently and all debris was swept up. Overall a very professional job at a reasonable price.

Have an old mower that was making quite a lot of strange noises. Wraight's Mowers identified a break on the inside and a couple of things that needed attention. He called me to check as the cost was now more and I could invest in a new mower instead. I decided to keep the old mower and go with the repair. The repair made was excellent and very robust. Prices were reasonable so very happy with the service and I highly recommend Wraight's Mowers for mower repairs and servicing.

Lovely, knowledgeable, friendly service, definitely recommend.

Excellent service. Fixed a major drive issue on my Atco Balmoral 14S. Very reasonable cost. He advised that due to age of mower and issues it had it was not worth throwing any further money at it. Very honest advice from a knowledgeable man. Thank you for your assistance.

I have used Hythe Tree Care for the past few years to trim our fir trees, but this year I decided to have them cut down. HTC have always been so professional and tidy and i was very happy with their work. I asked for a quote for the new work which was good. They did a fabulous job and left our garden looking great. They cleared up and left everything looking good. They were polite and checked as they went along to make sure everything was as i wanted. I would always recommend HTC to complete a great job.

The team at Hythe Landscapes are our go-to for all our garden/tree/landscape needs. I am incredibly picky and since day one meeting Luke I knew they would be fantastic. The whole team are knowledgeable and meticulous., an absolute dream to work with! We’ve had large trees taken down through to landscaping and seasonal tidy ups. All done with care and consideration. Highly recommend!

Rating: 5 / 5

Would highly recommend Hythe Tree Care. Had some work done by them, three very polite lads turned up on time, confirmed worked to be carried out, full of knowledge about trees and plants. Carried out the work in good time and cleared up after themselves, most of all had respect for our garden. I will definitely use again.

Rating: 5 / 5

Hythe tree care are great. They're a good bunch, quick to reply, really reliable and have done an excellent job with our garden - we'll be using them again!

Wayne and his team did a great job remodelling our garden. It involved quite a lot of groundwork, and a lot of sleeper work, which was completed to a very high standard. They also did a fantastic job of laying a paved area on the upper level, and laying artificial grass on the lower level. They also replaced several posts and panels of the fence, all to the same high standards. I would not hesitate to recommend Living Landscapes.

Thank you Wayne and team for an excellent landscaping job to the front and rear of our home. We requested installation of porcelain tiles to the front of the property and a mix of Trex composite decking, artificial lawn and porcelain tiles to the rear of the property. We were very pleased with detailed planning and the precision with which you executed the work within the agreed timescales. What we really really liked was your professionalism, punctuality and hard work throughout the period. You kept us informed throughout and always managed our expectations. We are pleased with the results, quality of materials and the workmanship. Thanks Wayne and team for our dream garden. We are absolutely delighted with the final outcome.

Tom and Brendon completed 3 jobs for me over a few months. Back garden. Layed paving and stone chips, 2 raised beds with sleepers, large brick step to shed, replaced water buts. Replanted my small fruit trees into bed. No longer a dumping area. Repointed side wall because of internal damp problem. Well overdue. Dirty job, lots of dust. Dug up front garden area, removed overgrown shrubs, repaired a brick wall. Layed artificial turf, my choice, straightend driveway matching up with brick paving to original, flower bed. Layed brick edging and pebbles around the area. All waste disposed of. Both hardworking, knowledgeable in what they do. HIGHLY RECOMMEND their work

Tom and Brendon work well together. With a narrow access they removed a large shed, concrete, bricks and slabs. The garden now has a beautiful patio with beds around 3 sides and cut in. Nice work. I shall recommend this team and will be in contact for more work in the future, thank you Tom and Brendon.
