Help wanted on large landscaping work

Posted by Phil Ashton on May 22, 2011 at 10:06am

I have recently set up in Bristol and have been very busy , have a steady amount of regular work but keep getting asked for quotes on larger jobs , unfortunately I am unable to take on the work due to me being a one man operation and lack of contacts , have tried to team up with local traders but they just want to take the work for themselves.

So really would like to know is there anyone out there in the Bristol area who would be interested in having a chat about sharing / working together on initially the large jobs , for example have been asked to clear an area of 15-20 trees ready for ground work , possibly a weeks work . There are a few others like this that I am confident enough with the right team together deals can be done.

Phil

"Plus it doesn't matter if we all know plants are better value. I'd make the point of this to the customer but if they want trough grown at the extra cost that's their choice I'd just do it"

"I've done 5ft Thorne troughs. Very easy to plant just got a mini digger dug the trench then drop them in couldn't be easier however £250 per m does seem expensive. "

Thought I'd sign up to this forum. And I hope I'm allowed to post stuff for sale on here as this will be a one off? I have for sale a tiny pro robot, it's not the new edition but it's the bigger one of the two. If anyone is interested then please…

"Agree with you Graham, we have a client with a long run of Laurel which we only cut once a year mid june and have done for over 20 years, the client is fussy with a capital F ! It's a superb evergreen hedge which is bomb proof.
As to this so called…"
