"Our back garden had been neglected for years — completely overgrown. Found a gardener on Grafter who cleared the whole lot in two days, levelled it, and laid new turf. Looked like a different house."

★★★★★

"We manage six rental properties and needed someone to handle the communal gardens. Posted on Grafter and hired a landscaper who now comes fortnightly. The tenants are happy and we don't have to chase anyone."

Mark S.Property Manager, Cardiff
