I would 100% recommend Matt for any garden work you might have in mind. Matt built me a raised flower bed for my patio and his passion for green spaces is just an inspiration. It was such a pleasure to work with him. He's creative, handy and genuinely a nice guy. He suggested a selection of plants for the amount of sun I get on my patio and helped me with the right plant combinations based on colours, height, width, so that a previously boring spot of the patio now looks like a real eye-catcher. I'm over the moon with the result. He's also a real problem-solver. There was a resistant tree trunk that needed removing, tiles that were broken and needed replacing and an unlevelled surface that all got dealt with swiftly. I'm now planning on phase 2 of the patio revamp where we'll be putting in decking and some gravel, replacing the fence and putting in a piece of lawn for our puppy. Speaking of which, he also came up with a separator so he wouldn't jump into the flower beds.

I would also highly recommend Matt and Harri. They are hardworking, knowledgeable, friendly and clear about costs and timings.

They came last October to cut back overgrown hedges, took out some sickly bamboo (including digging out a tangle of roots), jet washed paving and installed fencing for me. They have advised me which plants would work and sent me detailed listings of those plants including costings.

Matt is a great communicator and replied very quickly to my initial query, visiting promptly to view the job as well as emailing a detailed quote and maintaining communication by text and phone. They did the job that I wanted, in the time frame that I wanted and at the price they had quoted. I was so pleased with their work and feel comfortable having them around (genuinely nice guys as the previous review mentioned) that I am now having them back to do the next job of sourcing suitable plants and planting them into the spaces that were cleared last autumn.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
