Rating: 5 / 5

Prepared to listen to our thoughts and guide us to produce a first class answer to our needs. The finished product is grand and the finding of contractors for the various parts of the project was made to look easy!! We look forward to spring to see all the various plants perform as they will have been instructed to by a company that considers all points and requirements, highly recommend them.

I can highly recommend Joanna. Her design was brilliant and complied with all of our requirements, she prepared high quality full colour 3D designs and all of the technical drawings for my building/gardening team to follow and she even helped with the planting. The result is superb. It is actually better than I could ever have hoped. Her pricing structure was clear and upfront. Joanna was friendly, professional and extremely helpful throughout and i'm looking forward to working with her again on my next project. Thank you!!

Neal and his team designed and created a beautiful garden for us. The space presented some challenges which they dealt with extremely well. Communication was always excellent. The team were friendly and hard working and a pleasure to have on site and we're very professional and kept the site tidy. A year on our garden is looking fantastic and we will use Gardenscapes again when we are ready to start work on our driveway and front garden.

We had a small garden with a muddy lawn & wanted to maximize our space. Neal & his team worked with the garden designer of our choice & constructed the patio & back garden. The design was contemporary. The work started on time. Mark & Ceri worked for 2 weeks flat & completed the garden. Neal gave us choices of the different porcelain tiles & once we chose our colour, they did the rest. We are now totally enjoying the outdoor space & we are delighted with the outcome. Friendly professional service. Neal is excellent with keeping in touch via email/phone & the communication is excellent. Thanks to Gardenscapes !

Really great experience with Gardenscapes. Item was delivered damaged (courier at fault), but was replaced quickly with no drama. Neil was easy to get hold of throughout the whole process. Just great service. Would buy from them again.

We had our small garden designed and stocked with new planting last month and I am sitting in my new garden surrounded by beautiful plants, decking and paving - I also have sleepers, new turf and fencing. This took about four weeks and they were all punctual, hard working, caring and professional. They enjoyed their work and it showed in the professional finish from initial design, talking through choices of materials and plants to clearance of old and the construction of new. We would highly recommend Gardenscapes.

We contacted Green Roots as we wanted our boring lawned garden transformed into a space we could nurture & enjoy. We explained our ideas to Ollie & Phil & they completely understood our vision. They brought it to life using their knowledge & expertise. We now have a stunning garden including shrubs, trees, a pond & a wild meadow. We are absolutely thrilled with the result & couldn’t recommend Green Roots more highly. They are tidy, considerate, knowledgeable & passionate about what they create for years to come. They get a 5* rating from us.

Rating: 5 / 5

Green Roots have completely transformed our former, very tired and uneven garden by their complete redesign. We trusted their advice and guidance, giving them carte blanche on all plants and shrubs. We are extremely happy with the finished result where Ollie and his team were highly professional!

Rating: 5 / 5

After receiving three quotes I chose Ollie of Green Roots because I thought they would be ideal and they would work with me to get what I wanted. They did not disappoint my garden has been transformed and my waste has been disposed of ethically which was very important to me. Thanks guys for all the help and support. That's what I call a service.

Rating: 5 / 5

We have been very happy with Green Roots for our weekly garden maintenance and some one off pieces of work. Communication with Ollie is always straightforward and his team are polite, hardworking, and flexible. Highly recommended!

With a limited budget, we wanted a garden to provide peace and beauty with practical low-maintenance planting; a place where our homeless clients would feel comfort and safety in the quiet delight of a garden and a frontage that indicated a residence with style and quality. Ivan fulfilled both these aspirations for us through his expert skill and knowledge, his attention to detail and exceptional aesthetic judgement. He achieved a superb design that delivered an attractive but practical garden with a peaceful, soothing ambience. A combination of green shrubs and graceful trees were painstakingly selected to create the setting we needed and then carefully combined with paving and landscaping that is timeless, elegant and stylish.

‘I have used New Leaf Design on two projects polar opposite in terms of contract value – one c£5m, a regeneration of a 181 bed homeless hostel and the other a small garden project of under £10k. Whilst these projects were markedly different, on both occasions Ivan demonstrated the utmost professionalism and commitment to achieving the best solution for the budget. He often went way beyond the ‘call of duty’ in sourcing materials for the best value and creatively solving design challenges, and developed strong professional relationships with the design team. Ivan designs with his heart and with passion, has a genuine desire to understand the client brief and his perseverance to complete any commission to the highest standards means he adds significant value to any project he is engaged in. I have no hesitation in recommending him and am already considering the next project which he can assist me with.’

Rating: 5 / 5

Excellent advice from Ivan. We used new leaf design for our 'medium sized' garden, and the process was very smooth. We now have a garden that we are both very happy with, from an award winning garden designer. 5 *****

Wild by Design are outstanding garden designers and builders. About 18 months ago Tarun and his team transformed our rear garden with a design that added trees, a brick circle, a drystone wall, pathways and new planting, to the existing hardscaping and a cabin. The result is a series of several different areas, each with its own separate character of light or shade, woodland, and borders which are quite magical and flow easily from one to another. When friends and neighbours visit, they often comment that the garden makes them immediately start to relax. We feel the same. Wild by Design are very good and easy to work with and kept within budget. They also pay great attention to detail while making sure that the garden works well as whole. Take a look at the photos to get an idea of what they can do although somehow the photos don't quite show how well the garden works as a whole.

Wild by Design worked on a large, complex project for us - transforming a disused tennis court into a wildlife pond surrounded by planting. The team was outstanding throughout, from their initial visit to assess the project and provide a quote, to designing a creative solution, responding to the demands of a planning application and delivering successfully on the project. Their designs were both creative and practical, responding intelligently to the challenges of the site and their enthusiasm was unwavering. Max, Tarun and their team worked consistently hard, meaning that the most significant, challenging phase of the project was delivered ahead of time. The Wild by Design team have delivered everything they promised and more and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Tarun and his team have transformed our suburban patch into a wildlife garden with interest, depth, more trees, wild flower turf and a pond - the things we asked for and more. All done in a few weeks since February with flair, imagination and a lot of hard work. We were impressed by the plan and the the way this was brought to fruition. We shall miss their company but are enjoying watching it come into flower and leaf with each day that passes!

Wild by Design created a new front garden for us over a year ago. Whilst we loved it immediately, it has really come into its own as the planting has matured. It is everything we hoped for and we get so much pleasure every day from using it. The herringbone brick path and low wall are so beautifully done and complement the style of the house too. We get endless compliments from friends, family and visitors who love the garden as much as we do. Thank you Max and team for doing such a beautiful, professional job.

Dan is brilliant & very professional in his job, very friendly & polite guy who works very hard without a fuss in doing a clean and fantastic job. He did the fencing, turfing, installation of a garden shed, paving & landscape and completed the whole project within the promised time frame & all was done to very high standards. I would highly recommend Dan of Surrey Landscapes Limited for any of your landscape, fencing, garden and much more works.

I am a Chartered Landscape Architect and can highly recommend Dan and team based on the quality of their workmanship and their patience working through the design of my garden to capture the ideas. I now have a fantastic framework to plant up. They also helped me save money avoiding expensive rebuilds by retrofitting and cladding a wall to create a feature. I also have a new raised beds garden, fire pit area. All to budget!

Rating: 5 / 5

I would highly recommend Surrey Landscapes. After discussing our requirements with Dan, we were presented with a design, which encapsulated exactly what we were looking for and provided us with innovative solutions to some of the issues we were faced with. Dan and Alex were always professional and kept the site tidy, their attention to detail was outstanding and provided us with peace of mind, we knew that the end result would be the high-end finish that we were hoping for. After renovating our house the garden was a mess, but it now enhances the house and makes such a huge difference, it was definitely worth the investment

Dan and the team a did full transformation of our driveway. We are over the moon with what they have done and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. No corners cut and an impeccable standard of work. They are nice guys and always kept us up to date with the progress. The pictures speak for themselves.

Surrey Landscapers were efficient, reliable and trustworthy. They, ((Chris, Phil & Mark) built a large patio for me during the winter months. They were throughout courteous and always explained each step of the construction in advance. The finished patio is a credit to their work. They kept the site tidy, clean and well managed throughout and I am pleased to commend their work. I recommend Surrey Landscapers.

Rating: 5 / 5

For the duration of a 12 week project the team were on time, courteous, tidy and very hard working. I would not hesitate to recommend Surrey Landscapers. They designed and installed a patio, games area and flat pitch in a very steep garden, along with creating and planting new beds. It was not an easy project but they were reliable and a pleasure to work with. The end result is fantastic.

Rating: 5 / 5

The team at Surrey Landscapers did such a great job for me I booked them again straight away! They pruned and trimmed boundary hedges and removed all garden waste, keeping the site tidy at the end of each day. I then booked them to thoroughly weed and replant a steep rockery. Their expertise on plants, soil, drainage was fabulous and the planting was done very efficiently and with expert advice. Everyone that I met from the company was professional, friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. I wholeheartedly recommend them!

Rating: 5 / 5

We are incredibly happy with the work that Chris and Phil have done. We chose them as we saw the amazing job they did in our neighbour's garden and they worked with us to work out exactly what was possible with our budget. Their knowledge and experience shines through and they helped plan our new garden with great suggestions. You cannot fault their work ethic; rain or shine, they were out there grafting. Absolutely no hesitation is recommending Surrey Landscapers!
