Mr Sikka, Reading, December 2013
My garden was a mess and I was trying to find someone who could not only help but also guide me to keep it in good shape. After looking around a lot and not finding the right person, I came across Tidy Gardens website and met Paul. All I can say is that I couldn’t have asked for a better person. Not only Paul did a fantastic job of cleaning the garden but also gave it a good shape and came up with fantastic suggestions that I couldn’t even think off. And it doesn’t even end there. During t… 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.
Reliable honest work !!
I have used Paul’s professional services three times now for fencing, fence repairs and the laying of stepping stones. I will be honest, I could have done all these jobs myself, but I simply value my free time to do other things. I can only have Paul do these jobs for me because he is real value for money. His quotes are always honest and competitive. He will always discuss your requirements and provide alternatives solutions if you want them. He just turns up and gets on with the jo… 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

Paul responded very quickly to my enquiry, and was able to carry out the work straightaway. Our very large lawns were cut perfectly, and all the edges were strimmed and left neat and tidy. Pawel was very polite and courteous. We will certainly be recommending him, and using his services again. Sue, Farley Hill, October 2013
Excellent fortnightly serviceWe have used Tidy Gardens for fortnightly grass cutting and general garden maintenance, for well over a year now.
They are reliable and ready to advise on all aspects required. Highly 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.
Hard work and expertise
My garden had become quite overgrown and I was looking for a gardening team who have all the powertools, and can take the waste away, and who also know their plants. Paul and team were the only ones I found who could do this and they did a wonderful job.My paths have been cleaned, stumps ground, borders cleared of weeds and ivy and everything has been pruned.
Paul had some excellent ideas for other things we could do to improve the garden which I am sure I will take him up on very soon.
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.
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
buddleia cut back
Paul came very promptly to quote for chopping our enormous budliea. His quote was very reasonable and he returned next day to carry out the work. Very professional, gave sound advice about other plants in the garden, did a great job and took all rubbish away. Also cleaned up very thoroughly afterwards. I would gladly have him back for more work and recommend him to friends. Thanks Paul!
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.
Garden Tidy up
Paul did a great job clearing my garden which had been neglected for nearly six months and was heavily overgrown with bamboo & ivy. He arrived on time, work was done exactly as discussed and I’m really pleased with the result.

December 2019. Another fine job, Paul. Many thanks. You reduced the height of my Leylandii exactly as I wanted, and did a very neat and tidy job at a fair price. What’s more, you cleared up really carefully afterwards. It is always a pleasure to deal with you.
April 2017. Excellent Service
Many thanks Pawel for an excellent service cutting back and tidying bushes at the front and rear of our property. He turned up when booked, tidied up, took all the waste away for a very reasonable price. We have been so impressed that we have now booked Pawel for further work.
Hedge well done
Called Pawel who was quite flexible in terms of timings. Worked to my convenience. Wanted them to tidy up a messy big hedge. Did a very neat job and delivered everything as promised. Pricing was very reasonable too. I recommend him for similar jobs.
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.
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

Just to confirm that we employed gardener – Paul to do some work for us a while ago. The garden was quite overgrown and unkempt. This is to confirm that he was hardworking, did a good tidy job, and worked longer than was arranged in order to get the job done to our satisfaction. Would have no quarms about recommending him to anyone else. Pauline O. Tilehurst, August 2013
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
