Absolutely avoid!
We placed a job request on Bark to do up our front garden - this involved putting down some edging for a soil border and laying artificial turf, which we would supply ourselves.
Marcus quoted £380 for the work which we felt was reasonable so we agreed. I transferred £170 as a deposit for other materials required like sand, soil and the edging.
He arrived on the day and completed the soil border. Unfortunately it turned out that we didn't have sufficient turf to complete the work so we agreed to purchase more and Marcus would return the following week to lay this. As a gesture of goodwill, we paid the remaining £210 plus an extra £30 for the trouble.
After he left, Marcus then requested an additional £65 to return to complete the work - despite this not previously being mentioned when we had spoken to him in person. We agreed to this and set a date for him to return to complete the work.
On that day, we received a text from Marcus to say his van had broken down and he would not be returning. From that point on, communication with Marcus was extremely difficult. When we attempted to rearrange another date, he claimed his company had "gone under" and he would not be able to help us any further.
This has now left us £410 out of pocket with an unfinished front garden! We are absolutely disappointed by the lack of professionalism demonstrated as we believe Marcus had no intention of returning from the very beginning. Given our experience, we would strongly urge others to look elsewhere for more reliable and reputable tradespeople, as we have sadly learned from this experience to avoid trusting the word of so-called professionals.

Very pleased with the nice work done by Marcus and his team. He transformed our rear garden from a jungle to a beautiful patio with the floor tastefully decorated with mosaic tiles. Making use of the extra porcelain tiles, he handmade two extremely sturdy worktops /shelf units for us. Marcus is hardworking and reliable. Can’t ask for more! Please remember to serve the team with a regular flow of tea, biscuits and cakes. There’s a lot of hard work involved and these energy boosters help! More...

Marcus was brilliant from the first time we made contact, he kept me informed of when work would be carried out, if he said he would be there for 9am, he was there at 8.
55am
His lads and himself worked hard, no messing about, clean tidy everything left neat.
My garden looks great, wouldn't hesitate to use Marcus again.
Thank you

Superb work, at a great price. Done quickly, reliably and cleanly. I am very happy with my new fencing and gladly recommend Marcus and MJH Landscapes and will be using them again.
Hazel Henly
The fence Marcus put up was exactly what we asked for and looks even better than I expected. A few unforeseen problems with construction meant the job ran over but we were not asked to pay more. A week after the job was finished I rang Marcus as a couple of thing were not to our satisfaction, he came around the same day and sorted the problems with out fuss. Well pleased. More...

Thanks for your help! I now have a driveway and a much clearer front garden. I’ll be using MJH again in future for sure for the rest of the garden needs.

Driveway Installation
Marcus and his team did a great job on our new driveway. It was a difficult job involving directing rain water away from the drive, required thinking about our neighbour's needs, had to be hard wearing at the roadside due to heavy traffic, as well as meet our requirements. The solution Marcus delivered met all of these needs, we are very happy with the end result! We would highly recommend MJH landscapes! More...

We left a job request on bark......Marcus was one of 4 people that gave us a quote.......Marcus was not the lowest quotation but Marcus was a personality that I connected with.
There was something about Marcus that said work with him and his team........so we did and ended up having a job of a high standard completed by Marcus and his hard working team.
Would we use MJH Landscapes again ........yes

i would recommend this company mjh did a excellent job in transforming my tired jungle of a garden into a flat peaceful haven flattening, paveing,fence building/replaceing builfing raised garden beds and turfing. They were somewhat hampered by the weather at times .So it took longer than anticipated. They took my views on board,when i did change my mind about one particular thing and did evety thing willingly.they will probably,at some stage,be asked back to do more work thank you marcus More...
