CHOOSING PROFESSIONAL TRADESMEN

Unless you have previous experience in the architectural aspects of garden design or are a particularly keen and competent DIY’er, it is well worth getting the help of a professional – especially for building work, laying driveways and patios. If you are getting a tradesman to do the work for you, please make sure you choose someone who is reputable. Remember, you will get the quality of work that you pay for.

THE MARSHALLS REGISTER

One way of finding a reputable tradesman is to consult the Marshalls Register of Approved Landscaping Contractors and Driveway Installers. These professionals are not employed by Marshalls, but are strictly vetted by them to ensure that their work is of the highest possible standard. Only tradesmen who have clearly demonstrated their workmanship and commitment to quality make it into the Register.

THE BALI STAMP OF APPROVAL

The British Association of Landscape Industries, BALI, is the national body representing landscape contractors. BALI members are only accepted under the strictest criteria, and it is the only landscaping trade association that operates an on-site vetting procedure. When you select a BALI member you can be assured that you will receive the highest standard of workmanship and service.
