Hardscaping in Cowes.

“Our project was to develop a medium-sized garden, four miles from the Sussex coast, which faces south-west and suffers strong winds, lethal for many plant species, Barry Chambers of Changing Scenes, of Bognor Regis, successfully designed a colourful garden of raised flower beds, mature trees, large shrubs, a vegetable and sitting area and a stone beach with seaside plants, creating a frame for views across fields and glorious sunsets. The work was put out to tender to about five firms, with husband and wife team Keymer Landscapes, of Barnham, Bognor Regis, who I would also recommend, selected. Barry Chambers' knowledge of plants, and their survival in these conditions, is excellent, as is his ability to explain his choices without pretension. The construction and gardening was hands-on supervised by Barry who regularly returns, post-project, to add plants and check the progress of the garden and its maintenance. Amanda Pearce, Highleigh, Chichester.”

“We have employed the services of Luke from Roeder Landscapes over the past two years in planting up new beds, a small orchard and for lawn maintenance We are very happy with the results. His designs took full consideration of our ideas and built on these with further options taking into account soil conditions and aspect. Great attention was paid to bed preparation prior to planting which ensured the best growing conditions. Work was carried out efficiently with the minimum of fuss. He is now in the process of planting a wild flower meadow for us.”

“I used Simon to design the front and back garden of my Victorian London terrace house. I can't rate him highly enough, from the initial meeting where he listened to what I was after through to the designs, ideas and tendering process, he was professional throughout and a joy to work with. Having used a different company before on another project, I would always go back to Simon now. The final result looks amazing and my wife and I are very very happy with it.”

“Connor managed the team who constructed one of my Japanese garden designs near Ringwood, Dorset. Once we had agreed the hard landscaping materials he clearly laid out his plan for the construction and throughout the project kept me informed of any changes to the plan. He carefully went through my design with me at key points and this resulted in an accurate representation of my design. Whenever there were queries or unexpected issues he checked with me before instructing his team on how to proceed. He developed a good working relationship with both me and the client and was easily contactable to discuss progress and arrange onsite visits to check on the construction. The client was extremely pleased with the finished garden and I look forward to working with him in the future.”

“Very professional, designed and built an amazing patio for us. Showed great consideration for our neighbours whilst work was being carried out and on completion tidied up and left our garden immaculate. Highly recommended!”

“My project included landscaping, surfacing, building a cabin and supplying all utilities. Greenway managed everything from the ground up, were courteous, tidy and efficient. The site was managed well and everything was finished on time to a high standard with minimum fuss and disruption. Highly recommended. Would use again without hesitation.”

“We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Andy Stedman Design, we could not be happier with the garden he designed and built for us. Andy worked with us to produce the initial design. He very quickly understood our requirements and produced a fabulous design that both met with the constraints of the plot and our exacting needs. We were then further impressed by Andy's post-design planning. He was able to demonstrate to us the process that would take us from the initial design through to completion. It was very professional and gave us complete confidence that he could deliver the garden of our dreams. Andy's landscaping team then carried out the works. Andy remained closely involved in the project on at least a daily basis, and he project managed extremely well. His team were friendly, respectful and polite, and a pleasure to have on site. The garden is complete now and is outstanding and I doubt very much that we would have achieved such an excellent result from another supplier. Andy's attention to detail was outstanding and ensured a quality of delivery that was far above anything we have experienced in the past. Andy Stedman Design gets the highest recommendation that we could possibly give to anyone. We wouldn't hesitate using them again. Martin and Marian Orchard-Webb Rousillon Park Chichester”

“C.A.R. Gardens designed, and built, me a contemporary town garden. Features included bespoke paving, raised planting areas, high-quality lighting scheme, one-off water feature design, audio and privacy considerations. To say the transformation process was a pleasure would be an understatement. Craig and his team were a dream to work with. I still walk into my garden two years on and think "wow"! I never imagined such a relatively small garden could have so much variety. C.A.R. Gardens are a quality outfit who I can recommend without hesitation.”

“Knowledgeable, experienced, enthusiastic, hard-working, reliable, on-time... I cannot recommend Thomas more highly. His knowledge of everything to do with the garden is second to none and his enthusiasm and obvious enjoyment of his work makes working alongside him a pleasure. He is happy to pass on his expertise and makes a great teacher if you want to learn. Reliability and being on time is always essential for me and again, no complaints at all. If you are looking for someone to take charge of your garden, oversee or carry out a specific project, then look no further...”

“What can I say about these guys? I’m just so delighted that we chose them to carry out our project! From start to finish they were brilliant. Communication & workmanship was exceptional and they’re all lovely, friendly people and a pleasure to have them in each day which was really important to us. Not only do we now have the garden we’ve always dreamed about but we’ve also met some great people and made new friends!”
