Client Reviews

Our garden was in need of a serious makeover and some TLC - overgrown plants, poor soil condition and big gaps in the beds were the main issues and we didn’t really know where to start. Tracey and her team were absolutely brilliant, and have completely turned both our front and back gardens around. Tracey immediately knew what was missing and what we wanted (colour, and more plants to attract bees and birds!) and she was able to take into account and work around our budget. George, Mike and Dan were consumate professionals and a pleasure to have around. They knew what needed to be done and are extremely talented and knowledgeable. We would recommend Tracey and her fantastic team without any hesitation.

Tracey and her team were amazing at transforming our home in Constantia. They had their work cut out for them as we ended up planning a major garden overhaul with new lawns put in front and back, they did some major landscaping including garden steps, cobble edging and all around new trees and plants in most areas. Lastly they helped redo our irrigation system to ensure it was all working. Once the growth starts showing nicely I’ll have to post some pictures here. Thank you team for getting us ready for spring! Will see you on the first maintenance

I have only the very best things to say about the Village Gardens Team. From meeting Tracey and receiving my quote, right through to final execution the whole experience was positive, happy and incredibly seamless. I love how my garden has turned out, although I had some ideas already, Tracey and her team were super helpful and they added lots of input, advice and ideas. They also completely understood my vision, what I was hoping for and brought this to life. Having the team here for a few days was also wonderful, they were always upbeat, friendly, very professional and considerate and a total pleasure to have around! I’m so glad to have been referred to Village Gardens by a close friend, I am thrilled with my beautiful new garden.

After a weeks worth of hardscaping and a bit of landscaping I am so excited about the beautiful work Miles, George and their team did for my overwhelming garden. I love the new spaces created and my children couldn't wait to run through the sprinkler on their new grass! Thank you so much Tracey and Josh for your guidance and care. Prompt, efficient and thorough. This company is definitely 10/10!

Tracey, Joshua and the team were so professional from the planning to the completion. Tracey's vision of what could be done was amazing. The team were on time, polite, neat and kept me well informed of their plans and progress. I now have an amazing edible garden which I can't wait to start harvesting. Thank you to a brilliant team!

Hi Tracey We were thinking of you and Anthony and Susie and the teams - this must be a tough time for all. We are so grateful that we did before the garden when we did as it is a lockdown delight. Everything is flourishing and all the birds and the bees flying around. Thanks so much for the great job that you did. In better days you should pop around and have a look. Stay safe you and your lovely teams All the best

Dear Tracy I could not be more delighted with the transformation to my garden which you and your very able assistants undertook. Your personal interest, your patience and your impressive energy which you brought to the project more than fulfilled my vision of the completed product and for what you delivered, I found your charges most reasonable. As important, though, was your honesty and your refreshing courtesy; something quite rare these days which made the duration of this project, not a burden, but a real pleasure.

I just wanted to take the time to say how impressed I was with you and how you made my day yesterday when I got home to see your work. I work in the services industry and I was blown away by how professional, thorough, and awesome you have been. You have gone above what my expectations where by providing so much detail on the work you have done, how I should maintain it and even provided images! Thank you so much - you are brilliant. I woke up this morning and the garden was SOAKED! Awesome

I was looking for someone to do my garden that was in desperate need of help because of the drought, and I decided to use Tracey Cole of Village Gardens as she was recommended on this group. She has just finished doing my garden on a tight budget and I am SO impressed. Tracey and her team are lovely and really listened to what I wanted, and executed it quickly and efficiently. Would highly recommend her.

From the moment I met Josh for the consult about what I wanted for my garden transformation, to the end result, I was heard. Village Gardens transformed my much neglected garden into a sanctuary. The team who created my new garden was friendly, knowledgeable and are passionate about their work. They are also extremely meticulous about getting everything just right and went above and beyond in creating something I had only dreamed of having. Before and After photos....

It was such a pleasure working with Tracey, Josh and team on our garden project. One can sense that they have a love for the work that they do and they are very professional about how they go it. Timelines were respected from start to finish and the work was done to a great standard. Josh's creative touch was much appreciated. Our garden is transformed with the new grass and plants.

We had such a pleasant experience dealing with the Team and the results were amazing. Our yard was a mess, but Josh and the Team came in and did a stunning job. Team was also excellent at communicating with us, setting expectations, squeezing us in during a busy time and making sure we got what we wanted. Can’t recommend them enough we will be using them again in the new year.
