Christ, call those gardens?!  Great examples of 'the customer's always right'.

You're right - they look shit! 😂

I hate the stuff but I have a family to feed every Tom dick and Harry go around with their lawnmowers and hedge trimmers and do regular maintenance but there isn’t many folk around my way who do artificial grass same as many folk don’t do resin drives but me and another 2 firms do so it’s only a small competition and when folk phone for the work done and I give them a redicilous price and they say crack on then I’m rubbing my hands together in a ideal world everything would be natural but the world is moving in so I can rather say I’m not doing that and go hungry or give the customer what they want and get paid

Wow, so much uproar over some artificial grass.!!!

 

IMO there is no need to get your knickers in a twist, it is hardly the crime of the century.

 

The customer wanted a specification and got a price for it which they accepted.  Someone did the job and got money in the bank and no one died, was robbed or did anything shady.

 

Yet, he is lambasted for putting money in the bank and food on the table.

 

There are so many self righteous members on here.

 

Get a grip.

Leaving aside the artificial versus real grass argument, the hard landscaping looks to be done well Jack.

What a babe.

 

Murdering bar steward, how dare you cut down trees?

 

I guess I am one of the murdering b’stards as well.

 

Lovely day for it.  Fresh, crispy and still.

 

Removal of quite a few healthy trees just for the view.  There was the odd stinker in there as well but to admit that would get the ecomentalist going for removing valuable habitat.

Was pretty shocking to read. Looks like the bloke is doing tidy work so fair play. 

 

Lots of jaded soap boxers on here it would appear.

 

Of all the things to get wound up over
