Garden Makeover - March 2017
My garden has resemble a wasteland for several years. Paul and Eddie started work on it early on Monday morning and by Saturday afternoon they had transformed it into a lawn, neatly edged with brick paving, with a flower bed at the rear ready for new plants. They carried on working through terrible weather and left everything clean and tidy when they’d finished. They are reliable, helpful, hard working and very polite and I can highly recommend them. I have already asked Paul to do more gardeni… Read more

Our little jungle had the local cats pretending to be tigers in the long grass but Paul managed to address this in a jiffy! He is punctual and professional- a pleasure to have around I can’t recommend him enough!
May 2019 - efficient gardening
May 2019 Efficient, polite and great work. I love the way the garden looks when Tidy Gardens have been! So smart. Highly recommend for polite, knowledgable staff and efficient gardening
Excellent experienced people.
Phoned Paul to quote for cutting a large conifer hedge in my daughters garden, he arrived on time and quoted a very fair price so we agreed a day to do the work. On the day he was prompt and set to work straight away and didn’t really stop for about 4 hours!! Everything was cleared away and he even used a blower on the lawn to remove the last pieces! Excellent bloke and would certainly use him again. Highly recommended.
Amazing
I was searching for someone to help get my garden ready for the summer and allow me a little more time to enjoy it! Upon meeting Paul for the initial quote, he was full of ideas and enthusiasm and to my surprise said he could start three days later. Paul and his wing man turned up promptly in sub zero temperatures and worked with speed, focus and accuracy for two full days. They re-did the entire rear fence, cleared substantial overgrown areas, removed one tree stump and one full tree w… Read more
Reliable, Knowledgable and Exceeded ExpectationsPaul transformed my very overgrown garden into a manageable and welcoming environment. He along with his co-workers were exceptionally hard working, pleasant and knowledgeable, offering good advice to me.
The work was completed to a high standard with rubbish removed and pavements washed. I have absolutely no hesitation to recommend Tidy Gardens who were also very price competitive. Thank you for all your hard work!

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.
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…
Unusual garden service
Paul provides an unusual service – he knows what he’s doing! He can identify and name most plants, especially the difference between weeds and perennials unlike several of his competitors in the area. Added to that knowledge Paul and Radek provided a good service and created a very tidy garden in a few hours. Recommended.

Pawel and his team arrived promptly and got down to work quickly on what was a tough job – clearing brambles and strimming on a steep slope and cutting back some very overgrown shrubs and trees. I’m very pleased with the result – it looks so tidy! It was very good value for money.
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.
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
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.
Great impact on my garden
After I had neglected our large garden for several months, I hired TidyGardens to come and sort it out. They quickly made a great impact on the garden, cutting no corners. After a little over a day’s work I can now enjoy our garden again. I have asked TidyGardens to maintain the garden for me on an ongoing basis so I don’t let it get overgrown again.

April 2023 Whitchurch on Thames Paul and his team were brilliant at clearing my very overgrown garden and preparing it for spring. They worked extremely hard and I’m thrilled with the results. I’m delighted that they will be maintaining my garden throughout the summer and beyond.
Tree Stump Removal
I had a large tree stump in a really inaccessible raised area, full of other overgrown shrubs/brambles/general jungle. Paul agreed to do the work on a Saturday to suit my calendar, and worked like a Trojan for a number of hours until the stump was no more. He also did a couple of small stumps/large roots that were nearby while he was there. Great job, neat and tidy, and a nice guy to do business with, I can highly recommend him. I see he also managed to update his website with a few pictures … 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.
On Time ,Very Tidy. October 2014
I Contacted Paul , After Seeing His Website And Arranged For A Call. Very Prompt Service Even Though I had Changed The Original Date. Our Garden Is Unloved , But Paul And His Team Arrived And Looks So Much Nicer, And Work so Tidy I have An Incentive To Work In It. Pauls Quote Was We Think Very Good For The Work Completed , and Have Already Made A Note In The Diary For the Next Visit . Thank you Final Note , Would, And Have Already Recommended Paul To A Friend.
clearing an overgrown garden for my fatherPaul did a very good job clearing an overgrown garden for my father. He worked around all the plants and shrubs so they could grow again and also ground some tree stumps to free up new space.
Most recently, he planted a new hedge – he came up with lots of ideas and then sorted out what we wanted. I’d thoroughly recommend him. Judith
Outstanding jobWe asked Paul at Tidy Gardens to undertake a major garden clearance – topping out overgrown trees, taking out and thinning bushes and general ground clearance.
Not only did his team do an outstanding job, but was flexible around timing, offered us great advice and even kept the neighbours happy. We could not recommend him highly enough to others who need either a major makeover like us or regular maintenance.
