I clicked on 1 pound symbol...does that mean a low price or a high price? I want to tell you about what Grass Roots Horticulture charged for completely transforming my rear garden. I couldn't believe how little they wanted to do it too.
But anyway, that's not the real important thing.
I recently bought a house - my first!! yay! - and the rear garden was a real bomb site. There was the skeleton of an old greenhouse, piles of rubble everywhere, mountains of bricks, window frames, a bed...I think you get the picture. It must have been a dumping ground for many years. Oh, and there were horrible concrete paths all around the garden, which simply had to go. And the lavels were all over the place.
I wanted all the rubbish and rubble gone, the concrete paths gone, and the levels landscaped and profiled.
I felt so sorry for the Grass Roots lads because as they were scaping the land - after spending 3 days taking everything to the skip - they kept finding more and more rubble that had been buried. This explains the occasional big piles of soil. Why would people bury rubble?
So, when everything had been removed and the land was profiled, weedkiller was sprayed onto all the soil surfaces. Paul then came back 2 weeks later and re-sprayed because he said weeds love bare soil. He didn't charge for this, by the way.
We then discussed how to create the perfect garden for me and my ducks - which I will be buying soon.
Anyway, I've rambled on far too long. All I wanted to say is that I cannot recommend Grass Roots highly enough. The garden looks absolutely amazing now and I cannot believe the transformation. I am in awe of the Grass Roots boys. Well done lads!
