Ground level trampoline - recommendation


Judy2

Recommended Posts

I'm posting this photo so you can see what the wonderful Dave created in our garden this week. The kids wanted a trampoline but we didn't want to get a raised up one with a net as it would spoil the look of the garden. We bought a 12 foot plum trampoline from John Lewis and Dave and his son dug out the area. The decking raises the level up slightly which meant we could hide most of the excavated earth under the decking. He also put in new fencing at the back and covered the concrete posts to make it safer. Dave has also laid turf for us, put new fences in and built a raised bed in previous years . His number is 07597 524294 or his email is [email protected]. We would thoroughly recommend him for any gardening work.


Cost were just under ?2,000 which was about half and half materials and labour (excluding the tramp cost).

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.
