Project was to redo the lawn... uproot some tree prepare kitchen garden and have a pathway...
Was promised moon but was not really happy with work and responsiveness ..
1. Lawn leveling could have been better, I believe lot of corners were cut (not sure if enough fresh soil was laid) in raising the lawn level. The lawn is sunk at so many places ..... not as promised
2. Grass sod layout was relatively ok.. however there are gaps in the SOD and I can feel the gaps when I walk bare feet on my lawn.. also mid project was advised that the initial estimate and measurement were done in error and I have to cover further additional cost for about 800 sq ft..
3. Avoid doing pathway by all means... they are exceptionally poor at that and expensive.. if you do engage ask for pictures of the job they will do.. I was fooled into believing a touch stone2stone pathway will be done but ended up getting a pebble pathway with few stones laid on top. When I raised the concern, was told by Sean that they would put a garden edge on lawn side and a timber retainer on the garden side so the pebbles would fly off either way... still awaiting after two months for the GARDEN EDGE... and to top it Sean won’t even respond to my requests anymore... I really feel like a fool to have made full payment to him in good faith..... Garden retainer is another classic .. half way through they simply placed the timber on the garden with zero harnessing... even a kid would not do such a job..... the work is really a regret for people with some consciousness... It’s a shame that after paying 12k for the job to Sean and team I have to will have to redo the job on my own..
4. Garden bed preparation was another disappointment . My hard bed clay soil remains as is. Apparently only a thin layer of triple mix was laid on top. The water just stand on the garden bed..
Overall I would say a very ordinary professionalism. Would not recommend.
Sean’s promise that he would not leave before he makes you happy are really hollow... do not fall for them...
