No mess and no hassle! After being let down by a couple of unreliable gardeners I’m very pleased to of come across Cowen Landscapes. They have been managing my garden for just over a month now and have totally taken away the stress and time it takes to maintain. No mess and no hassle! Even with a couple of last minute requests, Matt is always happy to assist. We will continue using Cowen Landscapes throughout the year and highly recommend them.

“The whole project was carried out to a very high standard and completed on time and on budget” Matt and his team at Cowen Landscapes have created a stunningly, beautiful garden for us, totally transforming the mainly unusable space with all new hard & soft landscaping. The work consisted of retaining walls, ground levelling, sleeper walls, raised beds, fencing, porcelain patio & path, new lawns, plus design and planting of shrubs and trees. Our site came with plenty of challenges which were dealt with without a fuss and no issue was insurmountable due to Matt’s ‘can do’ attitude. The whole project was carried out to a very high standard and completed on time and on budget, working through some terribly challenging weather conditions! Matt worked collaboratively with us from the outset, always coming up with great ideas including lovely planting designs, which is an area he is passionate about and extremely knowledgeable. We found Matt easy to work with due to his excellent level of communication on and off site. The whole team are professional, organised, dedicated and courteous, as well as being genuinely nice people who were a pleasure to have around.

“Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value” Matt and his team cleared a very overgrown area of our garden that had been used as a dumping ground for years. They worked nonstop until it was done, through constant rain and sleet and never complained once, getting on with the job so efficiently. Now we have a new area of garden and are looking forward to Matt’s return to transform it. I would 100% recommend Cowen Landscapes to anyone, brilliant service!

“They continually looked for creative ways to to do an even better job” It was an absolute pleasure having Matt and the team work on our garden. Not only did they complete the job to a high standard but they continually looked for creative ways to to do an even better job. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services. Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

“His workmanship, professional attitude and friendliness make working with him and his team a pleasure” I would not hesitate to recommend Matt and his team. This is the second lot of fencing Matt has completed for us and his workmanship, professional attitude and friendliness make working with him and his team a pleasure. The fencing looks great and is completed to a very high standard.

Clemency Joyce, Loose

“Provided us with cost effective solutions and options which we appreciated” Matt and his team landscaped three quarters of our quarter acre garden. We are delighted with the end result. Having a garden landscaped in the Autumn is always a risk especially given the weather this year (2019) but Matt and the team were mindful of the mess and did their best to mitigate. Matt kept us informed of all unexpected costs and we met regularly to discuss any issues as and when they cropped us giving us time to think about how we managed the budget. He also provided us with cost effective solutions and options which we appreciated. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cowen Landscapes.
