Gardens

Spending time in your garden should be a safe and enjoyable experience and we’ll help to keep it that way. If your fence or wall is dangerous, we’ll treat this as an emergency and we’ll make it safe at our first visit. We’ll check the tenancy agreement for your home to see if the fence/wall is our responsibility before we carry out any repair.
We’ll repair uneven and dangerous paths and steps which form access routes in and around your home.
If you have an outhouse or outbuilding that is part of the original structure, we’ll repair it. We won’t repair or replace any type of timber shed but will remove it if it’s a health and safety risk.
