Matt, Hollie and the team have done a fantastic job with our garden. From the outset they really listened to what we wanted and the things that were important to us and worked hard to create a design that turned out even better than we could have imagined. They were professional, polite, patient and understanding of all our concerns, and honest with their opinions on what would work and what wouldn't which we really counted on. We had a couple of issues with things not quite working as planned and they responded and resolved them quickly. The team were fantastic and have done a truly great job

MH Landscapes came highly recommended to us. Matt, Hollie and the team were extremely professional, very polite and understood our brief from the beginning to the end of the project. We are absolutely delighted with our Sandstone patio and our garden is now a joy to sit and relax in. Thank you all very much and we can recommend MH Landscapes as the work has been completed to a very high standard.

Just wondering why after hardly any reviews on here, once we posted a negative review other positive reviews suddenly start appearing? Looks like they may be from the owners and their friends! That would say an awful lot - suggest you check out the authenticity of any reviews! The owners reply suggest that they had to reach out to customers for positive views to redress the balance - maybe you should have tried reaching out to an unhappy customer. Also, is the owners maiden name not H Griffiths? Maybe just a big coincidence.

Really pleased with every aspect of the service from Matt, Hollie and the team! From the initial visit, to finalising the design and then the build, the team were outstanding. A pleasure to have in our home. Trustworthy, reliable and exceptional at what they do. I have worked with a lot of trades over the years and they are (by far) the most courteous, polite, honest and hard working. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone!

Thank you so much Matt, Hollie and team for completely transforming our front garden path ! You have moved it forwards 90 years and added a great deal of value to our property. The new look is even more compatible and innovative than what we envisaged, and it is great credit to your professionalism that you overcame terrain, weather and logistical problems to achieve this. And the timeline for completion was met ! We would recommend you to anyone.
