Caversham garden clear up
Garden ClearancePaul worked very hard to clear an untidy garden - leaving me with a blank canvas to work from.
I live in a terrace house and rubbish had to brought through the property but Paul carefully laid down protective sheets) and left everything tidy. He is hardworking and helpful and I would recommend him.Read more
Very good and reliable service
I'm very happy to recommend Paul. He was very smooth and quick, after I phoned him initially, he came around 2 days after to have a look on the work to be carried out, and he gave me a quote on the following day. I'm very happy with the results, it was a complex task, by first clearing a jungle and landscaping, and 2nd round was surface evening and turfing. I'm amazed by the results I got for my money. No doubt I will call him again if new tasks come up.Read more
Great service and very happy customer!
Paul came around quickly as promised to give us a quote and provided exactly what we wanted at a great price. Fast, friendly, professional service and tidied up everything very well. We were also given advice/tips on how to maintain the garden and improve its appearance. Recommend using this company and we will use them again in the future!Read more

Exceeds expectations
I was the estate manager for a well-known spa hotel with extensive grounds, and can honestly say that I wish I had access to the Tidy Gardens team back then. Paul is knowledgeable and extremely hard-working, and unusually, exceeds expectations on a regular basis. I wholeheartedly recommend Tidy Gardens for whatever jobs you need doing in your garden.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
Garden work / Reading - review
I would highly recommend TIdy Gardens for your gardening jobs. Paul provided a quote and carried out the work in an excellent manner. Tidy Gardens lives up to its name as there was no evidence of Paul being here apart from a super tidy garden. Our garden waste had to be carried through the house and there wasn't a leaf or a speck of soil around when I got home. Also Paul didn't just do what he quoted for. He went the extra mile. Look no further for your garden needs. Amanda AdkinsRead more

August 2019 Pawel laid a new lawn and completely transformed a barren landscape.also cleared and tidied up old shrubs. A very efficient service, I cannot recommend them highly enough.Read more
Value for money
Paul and Eddie spent a day clearing our very overgrown garden. They worked really hard for a good price and now I can see our flower beds again and can start planting them with proper plants rather than watch brambles and ivy take over the space. They also left the garden really tidy, which I appreciated. Have already asked Paul to quote for another job.Read more

June 2020. Impressive! Paul and his guys have all the right equipment and are reliable and efficient. I have lived with our very long hedge for over 40 years and it has never looked so good since Tidywork Gardens started maintaining it.Read more
Major Tidy up
To my eternal shame I only ever call Paul when my garden has got completely out of control.... This time a major hair cut was required, including lopping trees, trimming shrubs and removal of saplings and rooting out ivy brambles and weeds...A large job completed over several days.- As last time I'm very pleased with the result, and I'd recommend him and his team without reservation.Read more
Parm, Reading, December 2013

Hedge trimming, May 2014
Paul was able to give us a competitive quote and complete the work shortly afterwards. I was delighted to come home to see the garden looking so much better and all the waste taken away.Read more
Refreshed Pathways and Borders
Paul, together with his equally hard working friend, replaced our pathways and borders (as seen in 'Lets not beat about the bush'. They worked very hard and I was extremely pleased with the result. I waited to write my review because I wanted to see what would transpire throughout the different seasons with regards to the plants. The borders have filled out nicely and the pathways still look new. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Paul and would happily call on him again for any further work.Read more
Lawn treatments
March 2019
Paul scarified and treated my lawn at the beginning of March and he is now carrying out fortnightly grass cutting. The lawn is looking so much better. Thank you!Read more
Great Job - Very good price for the hard work!Paul came to give us a quote to clear and tidy up our garden. I could see that even through our messy garden, he could name the plants (invaded by the weeds!)
, but he could also tell us about various weeds, and what needed to be done (other gardeners did not have that approach unfortunately - showing your knowledge is key and this is the reason he got the job). The garden is looking like I never seen it before. The house is ready to go on the market! Thank you Paul!Read more
Excellent quality, efficient and conciencous
TidyGardens came in to fell 5 mid sized conifers, install a section of high quality trellis (supplied by them), and to do a general clean up and tidy of what was a quite messy front and back garden that we inherited from the previous owners. The work was carried out very quickly, to a very high standard, and always in consultation with us, to ensure that we were happy as the work progressed. All in all, I can highly recommend TG; they are very hard working, conscientious and very keen to e… Read more
