Excellent gravel work in garden
Customer Service
Quality

We recommend The English Garden Company and will use them again. We had part of lawn turned into a flower bed, part into a gravel pathway and part into a gravelled area, all with membrane and lawn edging. In the front decorative gravel and slate replaced bark chippings. The team of five arrived at 9am Saturday, were friendly, polite, and tidied up after themselves finishing the same day. They also identified cause of problems in areas of our lawn as chafer grubs and advised against planting anything in new flower bed until the chafer grubs are eradicated. Our garden looks great after the work done by team, and we will get them to do regular lawn maintenance in future.

Replaced hedge that was dying

Low hedge was dying after severe frost damage. Neil visited to advise on replacement. I wanted something bright and cheerful. Suggested several, and I chose Escalonia 'Glowing Embers'. They weren't happy with the quality of the nursery stock, so suggested Nandina Fire Power. I'm glad that they did as it's perfect for me. Gardeners removed old shrubs and rejuvenated the soil before planting. It looks great. The gardeners were very friendly and clean and tidy. Great communication with office, and all done on time and to budget. Highly recommended.

Another Job Well Done

We’ve been using English Garden Company for a few years now and have always been happy with the service – from the initial phone call to completion. The teams have tackled a mixture of work for us including cutting and pruning a very out of control pyracantha; cutting back a much overgrown laurel screen; reducing the level of some of our trees and shrubs; and removing of a rather large conifer. They work in a professional and methodical way and, very importantly, leave the garden clean and tidy.

Planting and pond clearance

The work involved some planting to hide a broken concrete upstand and clearing our pond which was choked with plants. Neil came quickly to discuss our needs and was helpful in suggesting alternative plants when we werent keen on the first suggestions. The work was done well and everything was left clean and tidy. I would be happy to use the company again.

Amazing work!

We needed to have a mature beech tree cut down and removed because it was too close to the rear wall of our house. There was a problem with access, as we have side alley or direct through-way to the street except via the house. Neil and his team did an amazing job. They took down the tree and removed every last trace of it within two hours, and they left everything so clean and tidy behind themselves we could hardly believe it. In addition to that, the members of the team were friendly, approachable and considerate throughout. Really, we don't have words - except for amazing!

Great Garden Autumn/Winter preparation

Having not had time during the year to keep the garden under control, the team did a great job tidying the shrubs and clearing the borders. The garden looked so much wider, with the side path now visible and a whole lot tidier. The team of two did an amazing job. One of their team had not come in that day but they came back two days later to finish off. The were very professional and cleared everything away and very friendly. Highly recommended.

Just a brief note to express my delight with my new fence! The workmanship is excellent, the team that completed the job were most professional and the price very competitive. The job was performed exactly as per the quotation. I would have no hesitation in recommending The English Garden Company Ltd.

Very professional tree felling/stump grinding

We contacted the English Garden Company (also operate as the English Tree Company) about a tree that was at risk of coming down following the recent storms. We received a quote and were booked in very promptly and a team arrived on a Saturday morning to complete the work. The work was done very quickly and to a high standard. They were very conscientious and tried to avoid making any mess where they had to pass through our utility room and checked with us to make sure we were happy with the completed work before filling in the hole the stump had been in. In addition to the work we'd hired them for, they noticed that a fence panel that had fallen down needed to be put back in place and did this as well which was greatly appreciated. Would happily use the English Garden Company again.

Have used The English Garden company several times eg work tree surgery. Yesterday they did a major garden pruning for us and the garden looks still great but twice the size with all the stuff gone that didn’t add any value. the two gardeners worked solidly for 8 hours easily, but were extremely pleasant and tidied up beautifully after they finished. Cannot recommend highly enough. They are very popular in the local area and rightly so. And they are not as expensive as you might imagine in fact I think they are very reasonably priced and good value. Before doing the work they came to discuss my needs, wrote up a plan and then did exactly what was agreed. Delighted 😀

A pleasure to deal with. The whole team is friendly, always courteous and professional. The work was carried out to a high standard and the whole area left spotless. You do get what you pay for. I wouldn't hesitate to work with the English Garden Company again. If quality and experience are important to you, give them a call!
