Had John come out to chop a tree up damaged from the storm last week. He was professional, safe, respectful and did a thorough job and came on time. We highly recommend John and we will call him again next time. Much appreciated :) Thank you John for maintaining our yard. :)

John did an amazing job on my front gardens, he removed all the old material and disposed of it, planted new plants, woodchips & did a brick border around the edges, He was always fast to point out suggestions for plants and where to plant them and also how to go about doing it all. He is also good at communicating when he will and won't be available - rare for tradies it seems!
