Remote Consulting

We offer best-in-class remote consulting and advice for gardeners, those developing their own gardens and anyone who manages garden spaces for others, including communal gardens.

Fixed Prices

We can offer fixed prices for the work involved and as the consulting is done by email or telephone, we can keep the costs low.

Per Hour Pricing

If you prefer, we can offer per-hour pricing, which is preferred by customers who are undertaking complex, multi-discipline projects.

By Email or Phone

Our remote consulting services are offered via telephone and email, and we have a logging system to log the hours we spend on the project accurately so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Site Visits

In addition to our popular online knowledge base and best-in-class remote consulting, we also offer site visits within our catchment area of the Surrey/Hampshire borders.

Fast Response Time

We are reliable, keen to help our customers and we stand by our work whether that’s consulting new business owners in the gardening sector or offering advice on pest control to an amateur gardener.

From Our Clients

“The cost of all the work, including Daniel’s fee and the third-party work, is around half of what we paid the previous company, who failed to solve the issue. I only regret not contacting Daniel sooner.”

“Thank you very much. Really informative and I’m just about to order lap vents to solve my moisture problem (due to the current cold spell) identical to the one you describe.”

“Your tarp method of catching lawn grubs is so effective, I managed to fill an entire bucket in just one morning”
