Recommendation for garden design and landscaping

Recommended Posts

I would like to recommend Tony Pooley, who recently did our garden. Tony was easy to work with and very flexible - we had a basic idea of what we wanted and he helped us to come up with a design, but he was happy for us to make alterations as we went along, or leave some elements to be confirmed once the ground was cleared and we could see the layout. We are thrilled with the results. His email is [email protected] and phone is 07931 549144.

I would also like to vouch for Tony Pooley and his team. He totally transformed my garden to a really usable, enjoyable space. We have no direct access to the garden so everything had to be wheeled through the house but his team were really neat and tidy and respectful. Tony helped with the design, was happy to tweak the ideas as we went, was open about costs and was really honest and clever about where to save money without compromising what we wanted to achieve. They were generally nice to have around too. We really are very pleased and love the garden now. 07931 549144

Tony and team did our small back garden in May 2019. Like others, we were really pleased with the work (over two weeks) and the end result, especially Tony's flexibility, knowledge and design tips. He showed us previous work he'd done to give us an idea of what we could do in a very small space, and the finished garden is great and Tony and the team's work has totally changed our use of our outside space.

Tony has done a fantastic job transforming my small boring back garden into a useful cheerful place that makes most of available space. I recommend him highly for any size job having also seen other work he?s done. On time, extremely clean accessing garden through house and professional throughout.

Excellent value for money as well.

    • Rant ahead: You're not one of them but unfortunately, there's a substrate of posters here that do very little except moan and come up with weird conspiracy theories. They're immediately highly critical of just about any change, and their initial assumption is that everyone else is a total fucking contemptible idiot. For example: don't you think that the people who run the libraries will have considered the impact of timing of reconstruction on library users? (In fact, we know they have - because they've made arrangements at other libraries to attempt to mitigate the disruption). After all, these are the people that spend their whole working week thinking about libraries and dealing with library users (and the kids especially). You don't go into the library game for the chicks and fame - so it's fair to assume that librarians are committed to public service and public access to libraries, including by kids. Likewise the built environment people (engineers, architects, construction managers, project managers, construction contractors, subcontractors or whoever is on this job) are told to minimise disruption on every job they do. The thing that occurs to us as amateurs within 30 seconds of us seeing something is probably not something a full time professional hasn't thought about! Southwark Council, the NHS, TfL, Dulwich Estate, Thames Water, Openreach - they're not SPECTRE factories filled with malevolent chaosmongers trying to persecute anyone. They're mostly filled with people who understand their job and try to do their best with what they've been given - just like all of us. Nobody is perfect or immune from challenge, and that's fair enough, but why not at least start from the assumption that there's a good reason why things have been done the way they have? Any normal person would be pleased that their busy, pretty, lively local library is getting refurbished, and will have more space and facilities for kids and teens, and will be more efficient to run and warmer in winter. But no, EDT_Forumite_752 had kids who did an exam 20 years ago, and this makes them an expert on library refurbishment who can see it's all just stuff and nonsense for the green agenda and why can't it all be put off... 😡😡😡
    • I completely misread the previous post, sorry. For some reason I thought the mini cooper was also a police vehicle, DUH.
    • This has given me ideas for the ginger wine I love, that no one else likes!
