... just basic weeding, mowing, hedge trimming etc.

wanted to do the garden myself, but the weeds grow faster than i can keep up with them.

thanks in advance

Bossykate, a very good friend of mine's husband is a gardener (Streatham)- can't give him a proper ref as have never used him but am trying to give him our huge-rounds' contract. Is that any use at all (probably not!). He's a fab bloke.

hi dinny

could be useful if he does small jobs and can provide refs for what he has done before...

will ask his dw (sure he does) - their dd at EP now as well. He is doing lots of jobs for a couple of old Tooting EP teachers!

Several people I know use a company called Greenscene. They will come for one offs, or will agree a price for regular visits. They're based in W3, and I think the phone # is 020.8993.9808. Have no idea of the price, but might be worth a phonecall.

bossykate - glad to help. Let me know how you get on, as I might want to use them myself! Though as I said previously, the people I know who use them are happy....
