Customer reference for Greenstone Landscapes as told to pickapro by Petra Ryan from Dalkey, Co Dublin on 19-Dec-2010

When was the work done?
The work was done around October, November, 2010.

What was involved?
Completely re-designing the front and back garden. The back garden needed a lot more work as it wasn't working for us in its previous layout due to the steep gradient.

How did you choose Greenstone Landscapes?
Having searched for a number of landscape gardeners online and met with a few, we really liked Ross's enthusiasm and his approach with the possible designs that we could go for in the garden.

Had you definite ideas in mind before you talked to Ross Farrell?
We had a couple of ideas, however we were open to any ideas Ross could offer.

Did Ross introduce new ideas?
Yes, he had lots of ideas and was able to build on our ideas in order to make the design work much better for us and to make the most out of the space.

How did the project run?
Very smoothly. There were no issues at all. The team were always very pleasant and friendly and the work progressed very quickly over the few weeks.

What was the biggest benefit to you of using Greenstone Landscapes?
Ross was very open to questions and ensuring we were happy with how things were progressing. He was very willing to help us work to our budget without compromising on the design.

What's your favourite part now?
We love our back garden and are really looking forward to next summer when we will be able to take full advantage of it!

Would you recommend Greenstone Landscapes to others?
Yes, absolutely.

Any tips for other people?
Have some ideas of what you would like, but be open to other ideas that the landscaper may offer.
