We used Nick over the last 12 months to put in some retainer walls and pathways and come up with some concepts and ideas for our small backyard. He's friendly, helpful, full of ideas and easy to get along with. I'd recommend him.

I would recommend nick very highly for any landscaping job, idea or dream you have. He is flexible, thoughtful, very hard working and has a natural artists eye for aesthetic detail. An intelligent and interesting person to spend time with, Nick has worked for me on several projects. Some where I knew exactly what I wanted, which Nick completed exactly as asked. And one where he came up with the total concept himself from start to finish. He is extremely adaptable at working either way. This is a great strength in my opinion, and one of the many reasons I would absolutely recommend Nick for any

I provided a fairly difficult brief and I was really amazed by the craftsmanship and turnaround time. Nick seriously knows his stuff.

I have used Nick on a couple of my projects as he brings his permaculture background along with his landscaping expertise. He always thinks creatively about elements and is clear about any overruns. I have found him flexible and willing to troubleshoot when we have hit changes.

While it is fine for someone to pursue their passion for work, but if you want to take other people’s money, you have to run your business professionally and to certain standards.
Our experience with Nick was that he wasn’t capable of doing that. 8 months after taking thousands for a deposit, he pulled out of the job because he no longer had the time or interest in the job, without a sod of dirt being touched. He then took weeks to return the deposit, needing to wait for someone else to pay him before he could.
Avoid.

We hired Nick to install a vertical garden and a water feature in our backyard. He did a great job. It looks fantastic and all our visitors are stunned at how amazing it looks. Nick was easy to work with and nothing was a problem. Even when I changed my mind about something after it was finish, Nick just changed it to the way I wanted it. With regards to quality of work, can’t fault him.
I also contact Nick from time to time to get advice about what plants to use and what products to use for the water feature and he always gets back to me. He even follows up to see how I went with the changes
