Reviews

4.9

Leicester Garden Services is mainly praised for garden clearance and maintenance work, including hedge cutting, tree removal, weeding, planting and garden tidying. Many reviewers call the service friendly, professional and reliable. Several customers say the team arrived on time, and one person had used the service regularly for three years. The single critical reviewer said that while Tom and his team were capable and the work reached a good standard, appointments were frequently missed or rearranged, they did not attend a scheduled maintenance visit, and their contract was ended by text with little notice. That reviewer also found the quote rather high and was uncomfortable being asked to pay by bank transfer while the team waited on the drive.

Really impressed with the work Tom and the boys carried out. Needed a jungle removing and they came in super early and carried it out efficiently. Would defo use them again!

We have used Leicester Garden Services for the last 18 months to maintain our garden. Tom and his team are clearly very capable and have always carried out work to a good standard. What they have not been, however, is reliable. Appointments have frequently been missed or rearranged - but we have let this go because of the quality of their work. Two weeks ago, LGS completed £1700 of work to our front garden and were due for their regular maintenance visit on 29 May. They did not attend (without explanation) and notified us this morning by text that they are no longer able to provide us with gardening services. They have taken on a new - and presumably more lucrative - contract and have 'capacity issues'. Issues to which they were presumably oblivious two weeks ago. To be clear, Tom and partner worked hard and the front garden now looks significantly better - even if the quote was rather high. But reaching this point required seemingly months of arranging and some laughably bad design sketches, as below (and I suspect an element of 'let's grab whatever plants the nursery have and get this done with'). We were also made somewhat uncomfortable by Tom and partner literally standing on our drive, wanting instant payment, and waiting for the bank transfer to clear. What company does this? Especially with established customers? I have no difficulty with the business decision to accept other work instead of ours. What I have considerable difficulty with is the total lack of courtesy in not attending on Friday, providing no follow-up care of their own work and offering us (effectively) zero notice. Taking on a new contract is fine if you treat existing customers fairly - which, in our case, would have been a simple as keeping their appointment or offering us a final visit. They declined to do so. If Tom is being truthful, I assume Leicester Gardening Services aren't currently looking for work, so this review will have little impact. But I would be unable to recommend them based on my experiences. I'm sure LGS's new, more valuable, customers will be very happy with their work - until, eventually, they are treated the same way.
