Tasks done were lowering a mixed hedge by about 2 feet.
Removal of a tall shrub including stump.
Trimming of large escallonia stumps to ground level.
Removal of all green material.
The pre visit to discuss the work we were thinking of having done was very useful and professional.

We eventually decided on Puzzled Monkey / Spruce Gardens Services for conducting the work in our back garden. We had seen a few people for quotes, but they say you just know and we had a good feeling from the outset when meeting with Craig the owner. Fair to say the team did a fantastic job! Particular thanks to Jason and Neil, they were both hard working, informative, knowledgeable and took real pride in the work they did. Jason being the lead was an absolute pleasure to deal with and kept us updated throughout, he really knows porcelain. Willie was also great and gave another layer of assurance. I have no concerns in highly recommending them. We now have the oasis we were after and are looking forward to enjoying it, so thanks again guys.

I had 3 small trees and 12 old roses removed from my small garden 2 Salix and a Ceanothus).
Mathew and Alex (C) did a great job. They managed to remove the trees with minimal disturbance to other planting. They were very pleasant, professional and helpful. As well as the tree/rose removal they did a bit of a tidy up of the garden which was not expected. I was very pleased with work carried out.

Very satisfied by the work carried out by Spruce Garden Services.
The front garden was in need of a tidy. They pruned hedges, cut and strimmed the lawn, dug out rose bushes, hand weeded beds and gravel area.
The team arrived at 9:30am in the morning and worked well into the afternoon.
They removed all the green waste and left the garden looking brand new.

There wasn't much scope- just a small featureless paved area, outside my door.
By planting a hedge and installing a raised bed with trellis, it has been transformed into what will be a pleasant miniature garden - easy to maintain, which is important for me.
Without exception, the men who did the work were friendly, competent and at every stage, they made sure that I was satisfied with what they were doing.
From start to finish, a good experience and I am pleased to be able to highly recommend Spruce Garden Services.

I had Spruce remove an old patio and replace it with a new one. They used some of the materials from the old patio in a different part of the garden. They also added a new area of patio. They were very efficient and friendly, even making changes to the design as the work progressed. I'm pleased with the work and would use them again for similar work.

I would like to recommend Spruce Garden Services for the fabulous transformation of our garden.
Craig's team were professional and courteous during the time that they were here and I would like to particularly mention Scott and Alan who were great.
Work carried out included the installation of a extensive new patio area with flower beds around the patio and fantastic red cedar wood screens at either end. In addition, large flower beds were created to the rear of the garden with a seating area and pea gravel walkway introduced.
We are very happy with the work carried out and we would definitely use them again in the future.

The Spruce Gardens team have been excellent from our first contact and discussions, to the completion of the first part of our garden development. This work involved the clearance of a greenhouse, a tree, dismantling a rockery and tidying up of all areas of a garden on a very steep slope, with difficult access.
The team of Matty, Liam, Mark and Jason worked incredibly efficiently and professionally- they were always on time, kept us informed of what they were doing and did an amazing job of tidying everything up as they went. They were an absolute pleasure to work with and we look forward to working with the Spruce team on the next part of our garden.

Contacted Craig at Spruce Garden Services to get a complete makeover of our back garden. Summer house removed, 25m of shadowbox fencing installed, new patios (25sqm), raised beds, decorative aggregates and making split level. Lighting by separate contractor.
Guys were fantastic, courteous, hard working and very professional. Jason and his team worked so hard and paid attention to detail.
Would have no hesitation in recommending. Will let the pic do the talking:

After being left with a garden resembling the Somme by a previous contractor we engaged Spruce Garden Services to rip out what had already been done and then transform our garden and drive into our dream garden. The job took around 11 weeks and at various times we had between 1 and 11 guys on site. The outcome is just how we hoped it would be.
It wasn't a straightforward job but everything we asked for was accommodated. Not everything was done perfectly, what job ever is, but whenever it was not right, then it was fixed without a problem. That to me is the measure of a good company.
During the job, Sam and Willie made suggestions on how it could be improved, its the small details that make the difference between someone doing a job and someone who takes pride in their job. The Spruce Garden Services team take a pride in their job. We even got some advice on planting schemes, which were out of scope.
After the job, a Marshalls rep came to inspect their work showing that they are subject to independent oversight. I am pleased to say that Marshalls had no issues.
I am not an easy person to please but would have no hesitation in recommending Spruce Garden Services to anyone. There are too many names to mention here but our core team of Sam, Gregor and of course bossman Willie deserve a special mention. I have attached photos of the finished job.

Firstly Craig came around to give me excellent advice on how to improve the state of my garden. Subsequently I have had a new garden post installed by the landscape team (sorry have forgotten names) and 2 separate visits from the gardening team, firstly to initially tidy up the garden, cut back shrubs and treat beds with herbicide (Euan and colleagues) and secondly to put down mulch (Matthew and colleague). All work was done as scheduled and to a very high standard and far exceeded my expectations. All the staff I spoke to were very courteous and very eager to please. All were a credit to the company.
I have already asked Craig to come back to discuss the next phase of the work, and what ongoing maintenance I would like.
I would 100% recommend Spruce.

Spruce Gardening provided 2 fantastic gardeners (sorry didn't get their names) to do a 'tidy up' in my garden. They were professional, asked questions about what I wanted, then got to work and my goodness how they worked. They were on the property for around 6 hours and I dont think they stopped once. To let you know the scale of the job: my grass was so high it took them 4 goes to cut it, and they took away around 8 (or 9, or 10) huge bags filled with garden waste. I still cannot quite believe the difference they have made.
I would not say that Spruce were cheap, but the professionalism displayed, and hard work, politeness, from the gardeneners was superlative. You have to pay for quality, and that's what I got.

I had a total do-over of my small city garden by Spruce and could not be more delighted with the result. The guys were consummate professionals from initial consultation onwards; always checking in to see I was happy with detail and process. We have long dreamed of an outdoor space that is low maintenance but still high on greenery. We can't wait to spend more time in our urban oasis and can't thank the wonderful crew of designer, gardeners and landscapers enough.

Spruce Garden Services came and gave our front and back gardens a really good tidy up...Craig came to see the garden first and give us a quote and made some great suggestions as to what could be done. Our garden was looking very overgrown and neglected and Micky and Flynn completely transformed everything making it look so lovely and tidy! They pruned various plants, weeded loads, cut back branches, re potted a plant, cleared all the leaves and moss and did an AMAZING job. Both Flynn and Micky worked so hard all morning, they were super friendly and very knowledgeable too. Our unkempt and untidy garden is looking so clear, tidy and loved again! They took away all the garden trimmings and gave everything a really good sweep at the end. Thank you so so much Flynn and Micky and all at Spruce Garden Services, we were so impressed by everything you did from the initial call from the office, to Craig coming to give us a quote, to Micky and Flynn doing the work and the friendly staff at the office that we spoke to too! Fab teamwork, great service and a super price too! We will definitely use you again and will certainly recommend you to our friends if they are looking for a fabbie gardening service!

We required an end of year garden tidy up both at back and front of our house. This involved getting rid of remaining leaves, cutting back of plants and bushes, grass cutting and deck cleaning. We also had the paving stones, which form the path to our front door, reset. The men, who did the work, worked hard and conscientiously and we were very pleased with the end result. The job was completed in good time and they left no mess. I highly recommend them.

I contacted Spruce for a quote to do an overall tidy, weed and garden clean up. They must be good as the day job took 6- 8 weeks to schedule but the date arrived soon enough.
The two gardeners who came to do the work were polite, enthusiastic and knew their stuff. Suggesting which plants and trees to keep, trim and remove.
I am more than pleased with the result and would not hesitate to recommend. Will definitely use again.

New patio and steps laid, replacing old ones.
Very happy with the work.
The workers were polite and efficient and did their best to clean up each day. We were lucky with the weather so they completed the job quicker than anticipated.
We have no complaints at all.

We have a large courtyard style driveway that is shared by 4 properties. It was in poor condition, pathing slabs were uneven, broken and dangerous to walk on.
The team at Puzzeled Monkey gave us a very competitive quote for the amount of work involved. This included digging out the whole area to a depth of 270mm, putting in good quality foundations, putting edgings around all flower beds and then block paving the entire area.
The whole job took 5 weeks from start to finish, the team were very hard working and nothing we asked was too much trouble. All 4 households are thrilled with the finish, we all agree that it is better than we expected. Our thanks to Craig, Willie, Alan and the team for all their hard work and an excellent finish.

I have used Spruce Gardens several times now and I'm always extremely happy with their work.
I have a small front and back garden with a rockery but it can become quite overgrown at times.
They make a super job of cutting back shrubs and doing general maintenance.
Spruce Gardens are reliable and the workers are always respectful. I would not hesitate in recommending them.

We had brick work on the house adjacent to two sets of back door steps and the steps themselves which needed repairing and rebuilding after a botched landscaping job a few years ago. There were also a few other well-weathered and broken bricks at the corner under our bay window. The team from Spruce Garden Service / Puzzled Monkey were super! They were friendly and respectful, hard-working, careful and thorough - tidying everything fully at the end of each day. They even took the old steps' riser blocks/stones away for disposal. Thank you to Craig for taking on the job, and to Alan, Neil, Mike, and Flash for your professional workmanship! We are very happy with the result and I would definitely recommend and use them again.

The team from Spruce did a wonderful job. We tasked them with taking up a garden of artificial grass, digging up underlay, putting down new topsoil, laying turf and rebuilding a collapsed step. Communications were excellent throughout, they took care to make sure they were getting the brief right and were lovely, cheerful and polite throughout the week. The jobs were done efficiently, sensitive to the neighbours, and all waste removed. The lawn and stepping stones look lovely, and we’re really looking forward to planting all the beds. Thank you all!

Spruce Garden removed an old timber deck and installed a new composite deck using Millboard products. The enhanced grain golden oak deck looks lovely and is more robust and sustainable than old deck; no more oiling required and easy to clean with soap and water. Special thanks to Jason and Cameron who undertook the time consuming work of adding 60-70 ground posts under the new deck to help stabilise the structure. Highly recommended.

Sam led the build, and worked with his team tirelessly to take down and rebuild a wall. Very professional manner, keeping us informed on progress and next steps. Consistently tidied up the site at the end of each day, and cleaned all the facing stone work to a high quality. Very impressed - before and after picture added.

Fabulous work by all the guys who came to take down our old large decking, clear the site including a rather tricky old tree stump, and build a new patio and gravel area. Very accommodating when asked to tweak the patio location to maximise time in sun and incorporating two posts to allow us to install a gate. Looks great and looking forward to getting on with some pots/planting (and the return of some sun for fullest enjoyment :-D!).

Spruce have been cutting the tall beech hedge in front of our tenement flat for three years now. Before that I did it myself so I am very fussy about how the job is done. They have followed my instructions so precisely that I’m very happy with their work and no longer feel the need to cut the hedge myself.

The job was replacing uneven, crumbling concrete steps leading into our garden. Craig came and discussed our options, then left a detailed quote. We were away during most of the work, so it was a pleasure to return to find new, and safe, stone stairway just requiring pointing - and with the site left clean and tidy. A minor issue we had with the edge of one step was sorted when the pointing was completed the following Monday. We're very pleased with the quality of the work and all our interactions with Craig, the office, and the site team were pleasant and professional.

My garden needed a thorough tidy-up, including cutting back/removing shrubs and climbers, clearing overgrown beds and removing rampant ivy and holly.
All my dealings with Craig and his team (garden and office) have been really good. The 3 young men who tackled my would-be jungle did a great job and carted off bags of debris and a load off my mind! Spruce came to me recommended and I’d be happy to pass on that recommendation.

The quality of customer service was exemplary, from our initial consultation to discuss our requirements through to completion of the work. Everyone we dealth with was professional but relaxed, answering our questions and making sure we were informed as the work progressed. Special mention should be made of Alan and Ronnie who were assigned to carry out the bulk of our work. As well as working meticulously to a high standard, they were always on hand to update us or offer advice.

The team could not have been more professional and were a pleasure to have on site - even when it was pouring with rain!
As a charity for children with disabilities, we have to watch every penny and we feel that the Spruce team gave us excellent value for money. They were flexible enough to 'tweak' our design as they went along and completed the work to a very high standard within a very tight timescale.
We would not hesitate to use Spruce again.

We had a complete garden clear out (trees and overgrown shrubs out) and also a new fence built by the guys from Spruce Garden Services. Everyone who worked on site was amazing. Great workmanship and professionalism, would definitely recommended.

We had the entire back and front garden areas of our new-build home designed, landscaped, paved and the builder's rubbish topsoil replaced with good planting soil. Spruce Garden Services worked tirelessly over two and a bit weeks and totally transformed our outside space. The company was extremely good to work with, customer service was excellent and the crews conducting the hard work were outstanding. We would have no hesitation recommending Spruce Garden Services and would use them again should the need arise. Very pleased and looking forward to enjoying the lovely garden!

We had purchased a neglected patch of council land and wanted to convert it into an attractive outdoor space for our Childcare setting. The transformation provides areas for play, quiet time and learning to grow our own plants. The work was carried out promptly and efficiently by a very sociable team. We could not be more pleased with the changes that have been made and look forward to having this team maintain the plot for us in the future.

We bought a new home last year - it came with grass front and back but with minimal paving. The back garden also had a significant slope on it. We had clear ideas for what we wanted to do and pitched our requirements to a host of landscaping firms, most of which were on this website.
All helped improve our design but ultimately we went for Spruce - their quote was very competitive and guaranteed irrespective of any rising material costs. We were also impressed with Craig's suggestions as to how we could make the design better. We awarded them the work in November 2021 with the expectation that work would begin in June 2022. Thankfully they were able to bring forward the work date and work began on site in late March.
Clive was the overall director of the landscaping and the planting work. Jason was the project leader and was onsite daily for the four weeks of the transformation. He was aided by a whole host of team members and there were rarely less than 3 people on site - all of the team were very polite and very easy to get on with. So thank you to Willy, Alan, Kieran, Valentino, Flash, Robert and Scott. Throughout we were impressed with their attention to detail of the work, the paving in particular, that has resulted in in a high quality finish.
Clive created a planting design for front and back and that was just done in late June - it looks great and hopefully it will bed down and mature through time. Thanks to Mike and Aaron for the planting.
We now have great looking gardens front and back that fully meet what we wanted. We would happily recommend Spruce for landscaping and gardening work.

Turned a relatively small area, approx 7m x 5m, with an old deck and drab chippings into a lovely green space! Total transformation and very happy with the results. Special shout out to all the guys on the hard landscaping side of things - Scott, Alan and Ronnie - who were tireless workers and very helpful and tidy too, and also Clive who was extremely knowledgeable, skilful and helpful with the planting plan, design aspects and support during the course of the job.

The Spruce Gardens Team were very good.
We hadn't used them previously, but they came recommended by friends.
They turned up to give a quote at a mutually agreed date and time, and agreed the extent of works, giving advice on how the works would be best carried out......not at additional cost.
They carried out the agreed works, which included pruning a fair sized Rowan Tree, on agreed date and time, and we were delighted with the way the works were carried out.
The two guys who came to do the work were polite, hardworking and checked in for clarification before any works were started.
We will be using them again, and would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Spruce Garden Services did a great job on a complete makeover of our small, urban garden. They were hard-working and professional, on time and on budget. They coped well with having very little space to work in and nowhere to park outside our house - they had to ferry all their kit and all the new slabs, plants, gravel, and soil from the end of the road. They also impressed the neighbours, who were very grateful that, when they finished each day, they tidied up and hosed down the pavement and the street that they had to use as a work area so as not to inconvenience anyone.
They fulfilled their brief completely and I would strongly recommend them.

Pruning of wisteria and placing of support wires. End results were satisfactory but co-ordination between the two Spruce teams involved (gardeners to do the pruning and landscapers to fix the wires) was poor, with the result that both teams had to return for a second visit in order to tie the pruned wisteria to the newly affixed wires.

Spruce did a lovely job of bringing our back garden up to date. I was particularly impressed by the politeness of their employees. They tidied up each evening and were very helpful and respectful.
There was one very minor snagging issue that was sorted out speedily, and it was apparent that customer service is Spruce's priority.
I would not hesitate to use them again and I would certainly recommend them.

From our first point of contact with Sean to arrange a quote with Clive we knew right away that we wanted Spruce Garden Services to carry out the work on our drive. We wanted total replacement and widened. Clive listened to what we wanted, gave suggestions followed by a quote, which we felt was very reasonable. We got a date, and this was brought forward.
Willie and Tino arrived on time and worked nonstop through horrendous weather to get the existing drive etc. lifted. Next day prep, followed by laying the bricks. From start to finish 3 days. The guys were really nice and we felt very at ease with them. The rest of our property was treated respectfully and no damage. Consideration was given to how the work was being Impacted on neighbours.
I always go on first impressions and would have no doubt in recommending Spruce, first class service from start to finish, amazing guys doing the job.

Spruce Garden Services carried out grounds maintenance at one of our large stores in Edinburgh. The staff were more than happy to give the following feedback -
The grounds' maintenance went very well, they were here for the last 3 days and went around the entire building and car park, didn’t disturb customers and disposed of all their waste as they worked so nothing left aside at any point. Building exterior and car park looks great now.
I would absolutely use Spruce Garden Services again. They offer a great service for a competitive price.

Gardeners arrived promptly at the agreed time, and were very quick and efficient. The back garden in which they were working is only accessible through the house, via a narrow corridor, and they took particular care when moving the garden debris (a small felled tree, hedge cuttings and an old trellis) along this route - even cutting up the larger branches so as not to scrape the interior walls.
Inevitably, some leaves and clippings dropped off inside the house, but the gardeners swept everything up, both inside and out, and the mound of debris that had been piled up at the front of the house was removed spotlessly within a couple of hours of the work being finished.
Recommended. Would hire again.

Spruce Garden Service has been my regular monthly gardeners for a number of years. with back problems I cannot do the work myself and can rely on them to carry out neatly and professionally. Access to my garden is by a locked side gate, so if golfing all I need do is leave a note on my door with instructions what work I want carried out.
This was a one of job to lollypop a spruce tree. Not the first time. Arrived on time and even though there was a large wasps nest inside where they had to cut, it was not a problem.

Spruce was asked to remove our old wooden decking and replace it with a new larger stone terrace in our 54 m² garden, as well as putting down new grass and edging on the old lawn and reducing the height of a privet hedge. Our experience was generally very good. The work was done to a high standard, the people were friendly, and they were very attentive to our specific needs and the smaller changes we decided on along the way. Communication leading up the job was a bit lacking, leaving us unsure of what the plan was, but when we asked to be kept better informed they did rectify that. Overall we are very happy with the company and the work they did.

We engaged Spruce Garden Services to undertake an overall tidy up of our garden, including pruning / bush trimming, weeding, replanting, edging and lawn cutting and also to potentially provide us with ongoing maintenance.
We have had bad experiences in the past and were therefore wary of taking on a new company, however Spruce knew this and did take that extra care to ensure we were happy. We are delighted with the friendly, professional and efficient service that they provide.
The gardeners sent, Robert and Lucy, were brilliant ... they are fully knowledgeable about all the plants and flowers and didn't hesitate to ask, to ensure our wishes were fully taken into consideration whilst they were working away.
Quick and hard working too!
My wife's response when arriving home from work was "wow, just wow!"
Happy man!
We have no hesitation in recommending Spruce to anyone who, like us, is wandering what to do with their garden, because they're unable to find the time to keep on top of it.
Great communication and follow up with Craig and Bev in the office too.
Just brilliant. Delighted.
As far as the ongoing maintenance ... I'm sold and certainly won't be going anywhere else!

Spruce do a consistently good job of cutting the grass and general maintenance in the shared drying green behind our flat so last year we asked them to cut the beech hedge surrounding our front garden. They cut it exactly to my specification and we were so pleased with their work that we asked them to do it again this year, and will keep on using them in future. They are sometimes busy but we find them reliable and they come when they say they will.

We had a new paved working area, shed and compost bins installed at the bottom of our garden which had previously been a bit of a disaster and mixed up site. Jason and his team did a fantastic job, worked so hard all through some horrible weather. They took care to protect the rest of the garden area and left everything tidied up at the end of each day. Nice bunch of guys. We are very pleased with the finished job.

I needed a patch of overgrown ground at the back of my garden cleared and as I have used Spruce before was happy to ask them to do the job. Everything, from asking for the quote to the call checking everything was done as asked, was professional. The crew turned up on time, the lads were polite and courteous and were not afraid of hard work. They took great care to preserve the snowdrops I didn’t want to loose. It couldn’t have been easy as weeds had taken over. I will not hesitate to ask Spruce to do next job I need done. I can highly recommend them.

We have a large garden - front and back - and it's been ages since we looked after it properly. We inherited it when we moved in a few years ago. But now that we're at home all the time, we wanted a cleanup and regular maintenance.
John and Robert were here earlier this week, and together spent THIRTY hours clearing it up - and my good heavens this is a stunning result. I am amazed by their knowledge of the trees, shrubs, and flowers that we have - they have explained it all to me, and done so much work to ensure we can enjoy it all. What an education - and what a great decision.
I am delighted by the hard work and careful thought that they guys have put into my garden. I will stick with them. This is excellent value - and we are so pleased. I should have done this years ago!

In 2020 Spruce Garden Services did a very good job of lowering the hedge in the front garden. I was really pleased the finished hedge was level on all three sides. This year I required other work done on the hedge and they completed this again to a high standard. They tidied up and took all the cuttings away leaving the garden in good shape. I found the gardeners efficient and pleasant and Beverly in the office easy to talk to in identifying my gardening needs. Will continue to use Spruce Gardening in the future.

I had a new patio and stairwork laid. The work was done professionally and with great attention to detail, using high quality products. The job was (unavoidably) noisy and dirty but the workmen at Spruce endeavoured to keep that to a minimum and the end result is excellent.

My garden had become overgrown over lockdown and I hadn't time to properly maintain it. Spruce did a brilliant tidy up job of weeds, beds, bushes, ivy, and trees, and the garden now looks back to its best. From the first appointment to get a quote I found them to be a very professional and reliable company. The guys who came to do the garden were really hard working, courteous, and professional, and left the garden in great shape. I would't hesitate to recommend Spruce if you need any garden work doing.

We had a tidy-up of our front and back gardens. The team was very quick, friendly and efficient.
My only suggestion would be that Spruce contacts customers on the day to give a more precise time of arrival, because I was told to expect them any time from noon, which meant I hung around waiting for them to arrive. However, not at all a big deal and very happy with overall service.

8 June 2020 There is nothing better in workmanship than careful attention to fine detail and this was certainly provided by everyone in the Spruce Garden Services and Puzzled Monkey team who worked in every way on the reconstruction of our front garden. A major task.
The whole appearance of the garden is now of clean lines with all new lovely stone walls, steps and paving, replacing old crumbling concrete. New fresh turf has replaced old weedy grass. The lawns have been separated to the main path by a clean line of granite sets. A great idea by the team leader. The time spent going over all the drawings was certainly worth it and very much appreciated. The communication from the office was excellent, the setting up of the work schedule, material deliveries and daily timing of all the team went like clockwork. It was a joy to have the building team who were all excellent workers, very tidy and efficient.
They have not only provided what we were looking to achieve but offered their own personal ideas with our agreement, to a great design.
With our recommendation, and admired by passers by, we thank each and everyone of you.

Tidy-up of my back and front gardens, which had fallen into neglect as a result of the lockdown. My grass, shrubs and large hedge were all overgrown and weeds had taken up residence in my flowerbeds and edges. The team from Spruce turned up on time both to provide estimate and carry out the work. They did a wonderful job, carrying out my wishes exactly and completely transforming gardens from wilderness to beauty. They worked diligently and removed all waste. Afterwards I even received a follow-up call to make sure everything has been done to my satisfaction. In my experience Spruce is a friendly, highly professional and competent company that I hope to use again in future and which I'd highly recommend to anyone.

Booked Spruce Garden design to remove some trees and a large hedge from our garden and prune back another 2 trees and cut a hedge around our garden perimeter. Had to wait 6 weeks when I booked as they were so busy, but worth the wait. The team turned up on two of the most horrendous days last week - torrential rain. They worked right through even when I said I had no problem with them waiting until the weather cleared.
Very polite workmen, cleared every piece of debris up and took it away too.
Will definitely use again.

I used their services for my late mother’s garden which hadn’t been touched for almost 6 months , we don’t live in the area so they coordinated it all without us being there, they did a really good job, and left no mess .
Completely trustworthy and at a very good price

Very happy with the service provided by Spruce Garden. My garden needed some work to make it easier to maintain and more enjoyable to use - this required the removal of large conifers, some overgrown flower beds and a circular stone ornament in the middle of the lawn, with the resulting area then landscaped and turfed. They drew up a plan for my budget and preferences - before undertaking the removal work, and installing a new path, fence, raised floor beds and fresh turf. This took a couple of weeks, which was expected given the scale of the work. Would definitely use again in future.

I was absolutely delighted with the work the guys did for me. Due to long running health issues my garden had got a bit out of hand and needed a tidy up including some tree work. Craig quoted for two days. What an amount of work the guys put in it looks like I have a new garden. They were so chard working they finished the planned work earlier and were able to do a few extra jobs. They were all friendly and polite. They even neatly piled up old pots and wood so the whole garden looks immaculate. Can’t recommend them highly enough.

We have been delighted with Spruce's professionalism and reliability. They transformed our garden in the space of just a few days, arrived when they said they would, and worked with respect for our home and our neighbours' access etc. I would recommend them to anyone.

A friend recommended Spruce Garden Services and I was not disappointed. I was so happy with the work they did in my back garden that I used them again for extensive paving to my driveway and front garden. I am delighted with the end result and I intend to use them for garden maintenance. The staff are professional, well mannered and their standard of work is first class.

Very happy with the service provided by this company. Craig came and gave us a quote and the final bill was as he stated despite some extra work being done.
The two main workers we had, Jo and Jason worked so hard , always polite and well mannered. Obviously worked well together, lots of laughter and singing while getting the job done! At the end of each day the place was left very tidy. They were a pleasure to have around.
Would use this company again.

I have been using Spruce Garden Services for a few years now. All staff have been professional, polite, friendly and very helpful. I had a visit recently to prune a large hedge, various shrubs, bushes and trees. All work was carried out by members of Spruce who were knowledgeable and kept me informed of what they were doing along the way. There was a lot of work to do on a morning visit and they worked hard and achieved all that was to be done, along with further suggestions which were welcome. I look forward to welcoming them back in the spring.

I needed a tall holly tree felled and removed from my landlocked back garden. From start to finish a professional service was provided. Good contact with the office setting up the visit. Excellent discussion with Craig on site on what was required. Competitive quote provided. The two guys doing the work on the agreed date were punctual, polite, enthusiastic and swift. I was impressed by how they tackled the job, and tidied up behind them. No hesitation in recommending this firm to anyone. Well done guys.

What a absolute find these guys are! We required our overgrown and seriously neglected front garden tidied up. On the morning, the stones and other materials arrived, duly followed by the skip. Craig's 4 guys arrived shortly after. All running like clockwork. I just could not believe the 'machines' these guys are. By 14:30 they were done. I thought it would be a 2 day at least job! Looks amazing and I cannot stop looking out. In a world of rogue traders these guys are the real deal. Would highly recommend. Sam, Chris, Robert and Smain you are grafters. So polite and professional. You will not be disappointed... in fact you will be delighted. Do not go anywhere else!

Spruce were recommended to us and I am so impressed. Craig was very helpful & understood what we were looking for. On the day Jack & Kenny performed a miracle turning the jungle the back garden had become back to the way it looked 25 years ago when my mum was alive & gardening. Shrubs were pruned to retain a mature shape, beds were weeded completely and the patio and path were unearthed.
I recommend this firm VERY HIGHLY!

What more can i say, if you're looking for the best people to do any landscaping or garden planting work; these are your people!
I've had them to my property twice and will have them back again.
The reasons; no hard sell, continued support, an openess to 'build up' your garden over time and overall a great quality of work and follow up.
I will have them back again for stage 3, who knows depending on my imagination maybe stages 4 & 5.....
Five star all the way!

A gold standard service from a first class team.
Craig and his team were extremely knowledgeable, professional and reliable and very accommodating when plans were tweaked.
The standard of workmanship in terms of clearing the site, erecting fencing, building walls and laying paving was of a very high standard.
Craig also co-ordinated work with other contractors such as the electrician and building supplier to ensure that the job ran smoothly and to time.

I first used Spruce Garden Services 3 years ago, they mono blocked my driveway, built a wall, lifted turf, landscaped my garden and much, much more. Service and workmanship are excellent so I have used them since this for fortnightly garden maintenance. I didn't hesitate to contact Craig Young, owner of the company, for the next phase of my garden makeover. He has tremendous vision and ideas. They removed an old garden shed, laid a base for it in a neighbours garden and erected it there. The hard working team then set about removing a lot of soil etc, they then built a feature wall and a two tiered patio area. The guys are polite, professional hard working and take pride in their work. Extreemely pleased with the work, will use again and would highly recommend.

Spruce came to do a long awaited and badly needed garden tidy up.
Three young men worked hard for six hours and completely gutted a very untidy garden. They cut hedges, pruned shrubs and relocated shrubs. They also lifted all the soil around the garden to lift back plastic laid by landscapers years ago. Although still needing ongoing work the garden has been transformed. What a difference.
I have arranged for them to follow up with fortnightly maintenance as I have faith in them continuing to do a good job.
They were polite and friendly throughout.
Craig Young, who did the initial visit, was also very knowledgable and helpful, assisting me with suggestions on what could be done.
On the basis of what I ahve seen so far, I would definitely recommend them.

Spruce has provided me with an excellent garden service for 5+years, maintaining my lawn, hedges and topping the trees when necessary.
Coming 2 x month in Spring and Summer and 1x month in Winter.
I would highly recommend their service especially to the elderly as they tidy up so well, all the cuttings and rubbish afterwards.

Been a customer for almost two years; fortnightly visits and very reliable for the work they do in the garden in the summer and winter. On site meetings when required have also been at the agreed time. Good at suggesting alternative to client's requests, so this is a real bonus. Certainly no complaints - price range is mostly £1-£1000, but replanting works have meant £1000-£5000 as a one off.
