December 2010: Best Patio Transformation under £5000

In December of this year we entered one of our patio transformations into the Marshalls regional competitions. All of the Marshalls Registered contractors can put forward their installations into these competitions. On the 11th December 2010 Marshalls hosted a big meeting where all of the contractors where invited to discuss new products, landscaping ideas and much more. This is also where they announce the winners of their competitions. It was with great pleasure that we accepted the award for best patio transformation under £5000.

Other items we installed included:

⇒ Oak timber pergola
⇒ Hardwood decking
⇒ Rock and water feature
⇒ Rockery
⇒ Raised sleeper beds
⇒ Planting of trees and pants in low maintenance borders
⇒ Decorative bark and slate chippings
⇒ L E D lighting to light up the pond area and the planting

We also received an award for being on the Marshalls Register for 10 years.

".. I generally refuse to sign such things on a personal level. If you want that signed, I'll go somewhere else - and if the work is done, what are you going to do? Now if I don't pay you, well that is a different matter"

"It's interesting though how many customers see any creature within their garden territory as an intruder . 
Fear of the unknown perhaps ? 
Must admit though the unfortunate  label of slow worm does them no favours . "
