Avoid Darren!!!! Agreed payment plan in August for £1500…read moremessaged in January obviously had no jobs on I asked to wait 2 weeks he doubled the price to 3000 then put me off again till March! He's discusting and a liar!

Darren gave me an initial quote, which got higher as the original materials requested weren't…read moreavailable. For most of the job, lasting 2 weeks, the only people who were consistently on the job were a general labourer and a new employee who hadnt landscaped before but we were quoted for professional landscapers. As the job went on Darren changed the design and, as I thought, exchanged the patio tiles I had paid for in exchange for a composite walkway in the same material used for my patio, he changed the layout of the steps and the size of the deck. On completion there were numerous issues which Darren agreed were substandard as he had rushed the end of the job to finish to deadline. He then presented me with a bill for an additional £1500 on top of the £14000 I had already paid him. This was far in excess of his quote. We refused to pay as Darren could provide no invoices and had removed substantial excess materials from the property for use on other jobs, but finally after 5 months of argument Darren agreed to make good the problems F.O.C. That was in November and we are still waiting, despite pleading with him to come and make good on his promises. I hate leaving this review because his workers never stopped, in all weather's and Darrens ideas are lovely. Sadly, he cannot run his business effectively and if you hire him I'd warn you to check everything you you pay him for and gets itemized receipts for the materials. We paid £14000 for a town garden to be decked, flagged and astro turfed. We have since asked 2 other landscapers what we should have paid and they agreed the cost with labour should have been approx £9000!!!

Perhaps that was because we were two women in our 70s so he thought he could get away with it. Instead of taking paving up as promised he put new ones on top of broken paving and grass! Instead of taking a week he took 2and a half days. Apart from the first line of paving none of it was straight. When I pointed these things out to him he said that what he had done would hold up and he had worked hard on his own! We paid for his materials but no more as we now have to have it all taken up and done again.

Avoid at all costs. The work was scheduled to be done in two stages as we were having an extension…read morebuilt at the same time. Nathan did a very poor job of the preparation work that was done prior to the extension being built then promised dates for 8months to come and complete the work, constantly letting us down till he eventually said he wouldn't be returning. Still has our money and it's all in the hands of trading standards and our lawyer. Do not under any circumstances give this man any money until the job is complete as you'll never see him again. He tells lie after lie and breaks promise after promise. He really is not to be trusted, and a business name change will not alter his poor practices

When EDR came to do our normal garden maintenance, they informed us that they had increased their…read moreprices by 100% with immediate effect. We told them we could not afford such increases. They then said our maintenance price would remain but all other jobs (hedge cutting etc.) would be at the increased prices. As we only required maintenance, we accepted this offer and informed them. That evening we received an email from them saying, they understood that we would be looking elsewhere! We consider their behaviour to us to be both contemptible and despicable as they were fully aware of the situation they had left us in, and knowing full well that we are disabled o.a.p's.
