I found InsideOut through Which Trusted Traders, and they lived up to their 5-star reviews in every way. Sean, Brian and Lee transformed an area of bare soil and neglected paving into a garden that I'm really happy with. They laid a gravel path (with inset brickwork), created a new seating area from clay pavers, repaired and cleaned up a clay-paver patio and path, fitted tension wiring for climbing plants, improved the soil, did the planting (including of a fairly mature tree), braced a row of trees (that were leaning towards a fence) to straighten them, attached a pergola to a wall, and left the garden ready for outdoor lighting and an automatic watering system. They also created a really neat soakaway under a garden tap that had previously splashed into a bed. Much of the work required close attention to detail, and they were meticulous and brilliant at coming up with creative solutions. They are also very pleasant to have around. Sean responded promptly to all queries, and the work was done to the agreed price. I was left with plenty of helpful advice about looking after everything. All in all, the experience exceeded my expectations, and I already plan to use InsideOut again.

We used Inside-out Gardening to refurbish the decking on our roof terrace. Sean was good at communicating and didn’t try to upsell the most expensive options to us. And Bryan who renovated the deck was friendly and considerate in our home. He also explained different options to us and we felt informed throughout the process. We will use them again.

In six days the Inside-Out team transformed my overgrown, chaotic mess of a garden into a pleasant space. The work included the construction of a new retaining wall, a garden path and installation of a garden shed. I'm delighted with the outcome. The four-man team were friendly, considerate, meticulous and got the job done in good time. The estimate was reasonable and, contrary to my expectations from past experience, there were no hidden add-ons (That is, the final cost equalled the initial estimate.) I was helpfully advised by the organiser, Sean Khandler, when deciding what was to be done, and he was always ready to answer my queries along the way. Definitely a 5-star experience.

He did a great job and afterwards he took the time to give me some tips on how to look after the garden. I've no hesitation in recommending Inside Out and will definitely be using them again.

Inside Out did a great job with removing a huge hedge in the back garden and replacing it with a new fence and side gate. I was impressed by the professionalism of the team during this job and so we asked them back to pave the front garden. The bonus was having Sean to coordinate the timing of the different jobs. He was always easy to contact and discussed everything with me in detail before starting any work. The quotes were always fair.

We could not be happier with the service we received from the team. From start to finish, the professionalism, helpfulness, attention to detail and efficiency was second to none. Our garden needed a complete overhaul, we had a few ideas but needed some advice to bring our dream to life. Our garden is now completely transformed and has become an absolutely beautiful extension of our home thanks to the amazing effort put in by everyone on the team. Could not ask for a more stress free, reliable and “do as they say” service. Was truly a pleasure. Thank you so much!! Chantelle & Jason

Inside Out Services built a new garden path for us, a major transformation to an established and cherished garden. The initial visits were very reassuring and convinced us they really know what they are doing. Removing the old path and excavating the route took a day and they took everything through the house, using new protective matting and tidying carefully afterwards. The later stages of the work were expertly done, leaving us very pleased with the result. I would recommend anyone to contact Inside Out if they are considering a landscaping project.

With the strong winds February, 2 panels of our garden fence were blown down. We also wanted to install some privacy fencing on the other side next to our neighbours fence. Sean, Nash and Brian were great, providing ideas and solutions to the privacy problem and came out with a good quote overall. A new trellis fence with concrete posts was put up to help with privacy, our existing broken fence was fixed, and we also asked for an additional screen to be erected near our patio sitting area, the guys recommended a custom built screen (wooden trellis style). The work carried out was excellent and completed on time. Highly recommend them.

A 5 Star Experience

As many people are experiencing, finding a trade person to do work is more difficult than usual these days - and that's aside from the difficulty of getting materials. I had spent months trying to source recycled plastic decking to replace a very rotten, old deck in my garden. I then spent many more months trying to find a landscaper to do the work. Trades quoted astronomical amounts, they complained about not having time, not having the workers, not having the materials etc. Happily, I came across InsideOut here on Trusted Traders and there ended all my frustrations. Sean and his main man, Bryan, were an absolute joy to work with. They are rare examples of professionals who are solution-orientated - no moaning, zero negativity, and absolutely amenable. They and their team were charming, polite, and super helpful. Going over and above to ensure that I was happy. They took my point of view into account continually - communicating and liaising well. Nothing was a problem for them (or if there was, I certainly didn't hear about it) and they most skillfully and beautifully finished my deck in a total of 24 hours flat. Under time, and not a penny over the very fair quote - they didn't even dip into the contingency fund. Sean and co have literally just left, and I dropped everything to write this review before life takes over and I forget. But really, every time I look at my deck it will spark joy with no sour notes at all. A truly 5-star experience.

Sean and his team did a great job on our back garden which probably hadn’t had any significant work done to it for about 40 years. It has been completely transformed and we have been getting much more use out of it since the work was done. I had initially thought about doing it myself but seeing the enormous amount of hard work the team put into it I am glad I didn’t! Throughout the project Sean and his team were always very helpful and quick to respond to questions. It was great to get their advice on all the pros and cons of the various options. I’d happily have them back on any future projects.

Still waiting
I rang this business on 15/06/20 regarding a quote to have landscaping work undertaken in my garden. I spoke to someone named Sean, who advised me to take a short video of my garden and send it to him. He would then look at the video and contact me regarding a visit/ quote. This I did shortly after my call; my phone confirms the video has been received and viewed. I'm still waiting for a response.

We are very happy with the service provided by Sean and his team. We had our garden (around 13m x 3.5m) redesigned, with tree stumps removed, paving slabs and artificial lawn installed, existing paving re-pointed, and the fence/shed painted. The work was undertaken quickly and appears to be of high quality. Good value for money. Sean was easy to communicate with throughout. Recommended.

I wanted a some decking in an awkward and uneven shape at the bottom of my garden, with the addition of a circular, raised deck on top of it, for a small yurt. It was asking a lot but Sean and his team gave me exactly what I asked for, and more. Bryan did a brilliant job with the decking and also, instead of using flagstones for the additional paths I’d asked for, they created a path out of the decking material - an inspirational idea, as it beautifully links the bottom of my long, narrow garden to the top. I couldn’t be more pleased with the result and the high standard of their workmanship. It was an excellent job for a very fair price. They worked really hard, during a heat wave, and I would highly recommend them. I will most certainly use them again in the future.

Fabulous Two-Tiered Patio and Fencing Project

Inside-Out was simply fabulous from start to finish. We employed Sean and his outstanding tradesmen as part of a project to extend and refurbish our home. Sean was repeatedly on-site from start to finish, with his first site visit when the builders first broke ground in April. Sean offered extremely helpful guidance on design, construction and layout of our two-tiered patio and raised beds. He liaised with our builders through the building project and provided advice on sourcing materials from London Stone and other suppliers. The two-tiered patio installation (roughly 40 m2 of porcelain) was completed beautifully and on-time. Sean's crew also fitted roughly 5 linear meters of custom-made red cedar slatted fencing around the patio and built us a custom-made red cedar garden gate to match. Sean and his crew are a delight to have on site - they arrived early, started promptly at 8, and always left the site tidy at the end of the day. They were courteous and polite and were always careful to make sure things were safe for our two young children. Communication with Sean was outstanding throughout the entire project. Prices for Inside-Out are very reasonable but its the attention to detail and seriousness with which they take their trade that is most impressive. I've been using tradesmen from Which? Trusted Traders for years and Inside-Out stand out as one of the best I've ever employed.

Sean and his colleagues Bryan and Dean completely replaced our back fence, repaired and shored up our side fence and built a 20' by 8' area of decking in our back garden. All the tasks were done immaculately, to time and within (a very reasonable) budget, despite some unforeseen challenges with the back fence where they had to dig out the remains of an original iron railing fence buried deep into the ground. The back fence is really a work of art, with neat concrete foundations making it as solid as a rock and all the panels and the gate fitting together perfectly. We discussed the decking in detail with Sean when he came to size up the job and he gave some very thoughtful and helpful advice, which proved to be spot on. Not only do the top slats look great but they have been beautifully edged to give a very professional finished product. It was a pleasure to have the InsideOut team in our garden. They worked incredibly hard but were great fun too and full of good advice. My wife and I would not hesitate to recommend them and when we need more work done in our garden we will certainly use them again. Thanks guys!

Sean and his team were great to have around - we wanted a few things changed from our original quote and they were very happy to go above and beyond to make the changes we asked for. In particular, we needed some work done on a shared fence, and Sean spent a lot of time speaking with our neighbours to allay their fears about the work that was going ahead. They worked quickly and efficiently and were very tidy. Their work on our garden (some hard landscaping and laying of Astro turf) was of an excellent standard and we are thrilled with the final result. Sean also really helped us with choices of plants that would be appropriate for different spots in the garden. All in all Sean and his team are considerate and skilled in what they do and we would certainly recommend their services.

We first discovered Insideout via a Google search. They came and did a fencing job for us, which we were very happy with. Since then, they have completely re-modelled our garden over the course of several years. This has included three patio areas (two of which have stone circles), paving down the side of the house, a traditional tiled front path, fencing and gates. They are also great on plant advice, pruning, sourcing and planting. Their work has all been of a high standard and we’re very happy with it. I really appreciate their expertise and creativity, especially as our garden isn’t straightforward to work with (a rather odd shape, and on an awkward slope). They have always been able to come up with ideas and solutions, and have put time into talking these through with us so we could make informed choices. We’ve found everyone on the Insideout team to be friendly, polite and professional. They are trustworthy and I always feel comfortable having them working here. We’ve had loads of compliments about the work they’ve done and several people have asked for their contact details. They have gone on to do work for our neighbours on the strength of what they’ve done in our garden. Their prices are very fair and they come in on budget. They also check in with us regularly to make sure we’re happy with ongoing work, especially where the job is big/complex. They ask for and act on a snag list before a job is considered complete. I would absolutely recommend them.

Initially gave me a price guide on my supplying details of the work required – clearing an overgrown and ivy entrenched area of the garden, putting down a base for a shed and then erecting the shed. Sean then visited and checked the work required and confirmed the price as already given. There was a slight delay in starting the work because of snow, but as soon as this had cleared the work was started. Clearance and the base were completed in a day, and the shed put up a few days later – again some poor weather (and the need for the base to set hard). This took about 6 hours. The finished job is excellent. Sean and his 3 workers were considerate and polite. They had to come through the house for access but ensured there was no mess (dust sheets covered the floor etc.) and removed all the rubbish. All in all, the work was done promptly and efficiently. Communication with Sean was good throughout. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to others.

Sean turned a scrub-land of nettles, brambles and debris into a garden with paths, raised beds, and a perfect lawn. The family have now planted flowers, vegetables and even an apple tree.
