October 2020 Phenomenal! I needed my back garden re turf-ed, and ideally re turf-ed quickly (small child in the house wanting to play in the garden). Pawel (Paul) was easy to interact with, highly commutative, very knowledgeable (making a number of recommendations) and an extremely hard worker! Happy to act as a reference. Thanks!Read more
Absolutely fantastic gardener
I live in central Reading and needed trees removing, bushes removing, and other bits. The guys did a fantastic job. They not only did exactly what I wanted but went further - they hauled out bits of cement and took away extra stuff that I hadn't realised I would need removing. They turned up on time, laid sheets everywhere to prevent a mess through the house, and worked non-stop. Will use them again and recommend them to my friends and neighbours. Absolutely brilliant. Many thanks.Read more
Fabulous!
Paul & team did a great job doing a new tenancy clean up (thorough clean, carpet/curtain wash & garden tidy) for a house we're letting out in quick time & at a good price. Paul also did a tidy up of our own garden in no time at all. Now we've found someone local who's pleasant,polite, professional & reliable, we won't be going elsewhere!Read more
First class job! Really pleased!
We would highly recommend Paul as we are so pleased with our front garden. He provided an efficient, knowledgeable and professional service where we were very happy with the end result and all at a very reasonable price! Thank you PaulRead more

November 2021, Garden maintenance and clearance. Very pleased with the work that Paul and his colleague carried out for us. Ivy, plants, brambles in an overgrown section of our garden were all cleared as requested. Very thorough job and everything was bagged up and taken away. Paul checked throughout the day that we were happy with the work being carried out. Would recommend Paul’s gardening services and expertise. Read more

April 2020 What a transformation! We recently moved into a property where the hedges had been neglected for years, and were massively overgrown. Paul and his colleague cut the hedges right back and shaped them nicely. Removed bramble that had become embedded in the hedges, and ivy that had taken over the garden. We also had a couple of trees removed. This mammoth task was completed in a day, and although the garden looks bare this needed to be done to really open up the space, and will allow fo… Read more
Tree fell and stump removed
Very efficient and tidy work at a good price. Paul and his colleague attended within the time stated to fell a tree that was beginning to interfere with my nieighbours house. They even grounded out the stump so the ground was levelled off. All arisings were cleared away to leave the garden clean and tidy. Job was done so quickly and well that they also picked up some work from my neighbour too.Read more
Mrs. L. Shinfield, September 2013Paul has been reshaping and clearing my garden borders which has involved removing ivy from a wall, digging up some small trees, taming the climbing plants and clearing and turning over the soil in order to plant or relocate new shrubs.
I can now see the small garden path which had been covered in weeds for years! The shrubs now have a chance to thrive and survive the winter. Throughout, he has been industrious and thorough in tackling each of the problem areas. He is also knowledgeable… Read more

Hardworking and efficient job. I hired Tidy Gardens to trim the very overgrown hedges and bushes in my garden. I'm very pleased with the work. Paul and colleague were punctual, polite and worked very hard to complete the job. They tidied up afterwards and I'm very happy with the result. My garden is looking lovely and I would definitely use them again. Read more

October 2018. Taming the jungle!I had an overgrown garden where trees had merged into one. I couldn’t see where one plant started and the next one ended!
We needed help and Paul was on hand to help! We arranged a visit within a few days and fortunately Paul could fit us in just a few days after that. The end product is a thinned out space where we can now plant some small shrubs. Paul gave me some ideas about what we could plant. Paul worked tirelessly on the job and I would have no hesitation in recommending him!Read more
New look - garden landscaped
We moved recently and the small garden was very overgrown. However, with the help of Paul and Eddie we now have a completely renovated garden with new patio areas, lawn and flower beds. We are so pleased with the result. Paul and Eddie worked tirelessly and were extremely professional. Paul is quite knowledgeable about plants and garden design and they both took great pride in their work. We would definitely recommend them.
Please have a look at the video of this project Read more

Pam Thomas - December 2019
I wish I had taken a photo of my garden before Paul and his team arrived. as it had extremely long wet grass, was very weedy with large overgrown shrubs. After Paul’s first visit, the wet grass had been cut back, shrubs pruned and weeds removed. On second visit – Grass mowed and now looking like a proper lawn again, more weeds removed, and more shrubs pruned back. Third (and last visit of the year) – Lawn looking good, neat and tidy, and now awaiting for spring of next year. So, if you hav… Read more

Front lawn landscaped
Paul recently re-landscaped my front lawn. He removed so serious hard to get tree stumps, levelled out the ground, relaid the lawn and finished off by doing some pave edgings for some rose bushes. The quality of his work was really good and he even started the work on the Easter Monday Bank Holiday. I have already recommended him to my brother and will do the same to those who ask who did the work. Excellent work by a polite and friendly chap.Read more
Professional, personable, good quality work
Paul carried out some work on my property today. It was a relatively small job (extending a path using paving stones) which took him and his colleague about a day to complete. He and his colleague turned up on time and then proceeded to carry out the work as agreed. The quality of work was excellent and he kept me informed to what he was doing, to ensure that the work was being done to my satisfaction. After completion he tidied up and left the premises neat and tidy. I would not hesitate to con… Read more
