Recommendation for patio and other hard landscaping

Recommended Posts

I just wanted to recommend Martin Terebessy ([email protected] ; mobile 07514045390).


Martin and his colleague Rusty have just completed a patio for me on time and on budget. Aside from being thrilled with the results I have to say that Martin was a pleasure to work with. He was genuinely interested in doing as good a job as he could and was happy to alter details of the project as it developed. He was very well organised and meticulous in planning, prep and execution. He cleaned up each evening and he always returned emails in good time. All in all a good experience.


If any of you are looking for a good hard landscaper then give Martin a call, I doubt you'll regret it.

Another recommendation for Martin, basically echoing everything said above. Martin revamped our entire front and back gardens. He excavated the entire front section of the garden, levelled it, built a driveway and laid a black and white Victorian path. He also built an ingenious bike rack/shed at the side of our house so that our bikes now hang on the wall rather than living in the house which they had done. He then prepared the back garden for planting, dug beds, laid borders, installed lighting and re-painted our decking. He replaced fencing, put up a external door and replicated a really cool slatted batten fence that I'd seen in a magazine. He was tidy, considerate and a real pleasure to have around - even my neighbours loved him! Nothing was too much trouble, he answered emails/texts quickly and came up with loads of great ideas along the way.


A brilliant hard landscaper who is clearly very proud of the work he does. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. If you want more info please PM me.

And yet another recommendation for Martin! He spent four days here this week building us a really amazing patio (circular brick pattern) with real attention to detail and taking obvious pride in his work. He's an artist! He also laid us a new lawn and re-landscaped our front step/drive in that time. He is a lovely person to work with - reliable, straightforward and, above all, a really nice bloke.


The only downside is that he's so good he is booked up for months! But do let him quote for you as he managed to squeeze us in much sooner than we expected.

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
