Thanks Richard, I'd been through the list without luck - most are old contacts or websites out of date so was just seeing if there was any more recent contacts.

Hope you are well

Hi Jude

I just wanted to follow up and ask whether you had had any luck in finding someone? We are looking for someone to level off and turf our garden so would appreciate any recommendations you might have. 

Thanks

Sarah

I use Giles Wakeham who also does work on the community garden in Myddleton Road. He's a very reasonable £18/hour or £100 for a whole day. He can do some building work such as repointing and relaying decking too. He can be contacted on 07852464679.

Giles sounds great.

In the end I met two local organisations

Paul from Outside Designs http://outside-designs.co.uk/

and Simon from Gardens of London (can't find the website at the mo)

Both were great, both gave competitive quotes to a tight budget and in the end I went for Paul but both were great.   We're having our garden done next week so fingers crossed I'll have some pics to share.
