Hi,

I am Alistair, I professionally trained in gardening, horticulture, soft and hard landscaping, have been trading for 30 years, very well respected and with high recommendations.

As an apprentice, my boss and role model was the ex-Head Gardener of Windsor, tough teacher, but I learnt horticulture in all aspects.

Artificial Grass Installation

Thank you and very well done for making such a wonderful job, our front drive and rear garden look stunning!

What a difference the artificial grass has made!

We are well impressed, as the whole appearance of our property has been significantly improved.

We can now enjoy more time outdoors with our grandchildren, family and friends.

In fact, we have had our first party since the garden makeover, the guests have positively commented and complimented the looks of our garden, making remarks about the practicality and design of our outdoor space.

Alistair has got a fantastic team, very dedicated and efficient..

They have been on schedule and overcame challenges professionally, it is worth mentioning the team has kept everything nice and tidy at all times and all members of staff have been polite and respectful.

Both myself and my husband, have passed your business details to friends and family, as they really liked the way our garden looks now.

Nevertheless, your flyers are already at the parish church, members of our congregation will most likely require your gardening services.

We required our garden to be remodelled following our building renovation. This was for our front and back gardens. The quote that our own builder provided was not great at all. We looked on Bark.com and read various reviews and recommendations. In total we had 4 quotes and Alistair came out on top for his professionalism, price and time to completion. He started very promptly and removed all the slabs and old lawn. We wanted wooden garden beds matching a design we had found online. In addition, we asked for artificial grass which he provided and laid. He did this all without fuss and was able to match the new paving that our builder had previously prepared.
For our front garden, Alistair and his team provided advice and made good suggestions. This included new gating, fencing and pebbling which has transformed the look. This was all done at a very reasonable price.
I would support all the positive feedback that Alistair has received and would recommend his services. He was very easy to contact, approachable and came the same day to quote us.
The job started next day and was completed in 5 days. Even our neighbours have commented on how professional, polite and clean Alistair's team was.
We have now hired full time Alistair to maintain our gardens on regular basis
Thank you Bark, Thank you Alistair.

We can trim, cut, remove replace any hedge, shrub, or conifer.

Each hedge, shrub, hedge or plant has to be pruned/trimmed/cut individually and to its own specification to get the very best out of them.

With our many years of experience, we know exactly how to carry out the pruning and trimming, ensuring we encourage healthy growth, great flowering, greening, and good production of flowers, fruit or berries.

Shrubs can be trimmed or pruned to encourage new growth that will give, depending on the shrub/tree variety, good colour in the stems/trunks.

As hedges often surround properties, they give the first impression of our home to guests and passers-by. We specialise in and take pride in our hedge trimming and cutting, using performance petrol hedge cutters to provide our customers with the best possible first impression for their home.

Hedges are an ideal feature for aesthetic and practical purposes. Hedges can form a backdrop for a border or be used as a boundary instead of a wall or fence. They can also be used for practical purposes, such as providing privacy or keeping people out. It would take an unusually persistent burglar to try to get through a Berberis or a Prunus Spinosa hedge!

Having local suppliers for hedges, shrubs, conifers, plants and all other materials your project requires, we can ensure timed delivery.

We now offer supply and installation services for artificial grass in surrounding areas of Birmingham, Dudley, Stourbridge, Bromsgrove, Kidderminster, Bridgenorth, Stourport etc.

Artificial grass is a surface manufactured from synthetic fibres, made to look and feel like natural grass.

The main reason for having artificial grass fitted is being maintenance free and green all year around.

Having a natural look and feel, not requiring mowing, the artificial grass can be used used for front and back gardens, indoor and outdoor, fitted on any surfaces.

No more watering or mud puddles, makes artificial grass desirable and safe for use in places where children and pets have access.

Artificial turf will remain lush and green 365 days a year. It is UV stabilised to minimise fading (10 YEAR GUARANTEE) and is constructed with drainage, so it dries out quickly when exposed to rain or light watering. Your artificial lawn will appear immaculate all year round, for many years to come.

We remove old turf, grass, slabs, decking, borders and can fit artificial grass on any surface.

Having local suppliers for turf, artificial grass, fence panels, plants and all other materials your project requires, we can ensure timed delivery.

We offer supply, installation, replacement and removal services for fences and gates.

Providing different types of fencing primarily that of concrete posts, kick boards and wooden fence panels. Fence panels range, from simple featheredge that offers a very strong but nice looking panel to very decorative curved or woven panels.

The other type of fence we construct a lot of is where you have a straight run of what appears to be fence panels but it is all constructed on site, with this type of fence there are no posts visible, this is a more aesthetically pleasing fence.

Another regular choice for our clients is picket fencing, which is perfect for a cottage style garden. At a lower height than most of the other types of fencing, this really adds to the aesthetic value of the garden.

Whether we use wooden, concrete or steel posts these are all concreted into the ground. This ensures that they are solid and stable no matter what the weather conditions are.

Having local suppliers for fence panels, wood, posts, gates and all other fencing products materials your project requires, we can ensure timed delivery and discounted prices.

Decking is constructed with three different types of material, redwood, hardwood or a synthetic material.

We find decking particularly useful if there is a slope on the site or the client wants an additional seating area constructed of a material other than stone, or if the customer wants a care and maintenance free outdoor area.

The deck can be raised to the same level as the floor in the house, therefore when the patio doors are opened, the decking is an extension of their living area.

Whatever material you choose for your decked area, you can be sure that we will construct it in a manner that is not only structurally sound but will look fantastic and add value to your property.

Having local suppliers for all decking products and materials your project requires, we can ensure timed delivery and discounted prices.
