Sole Trader

Telford · Service area: Telford, Ironbridge, Broseley, Much Wenlock, Bridgnorth

Our verdict

Our judgement: a natural fit if you want a regular mowing and tidy round in the Gorge villages from someone whose customers describe reliable, communicative work [1][2]. The business is small, so availability may be tight. Before booking, confirm the right phone number, the round price and what happens to your cuttings.

Ratings on other sites

Recorded with source, scale, count and the date read. These are not our own ratings.

Strengths

  • We rate the site a strength because it lists eight services, the Gorge villages served, and a long customer account of a rescued garden, all current to this round [1]. That detail tells you exactly what a visit covers.

  • The review record stands at 5.0 from 23 Google reviews, seen 3 September 2026, which is strong for a one-person round [2]. The site follows RHS guidance on hedge-nesting season, which shows care for the detail [1].

Limitations

  • No trading history, insurance or pricing is published, so all three scored as insufficient evidence or partial at best [1].

  • The contact section shows a phone number differing by one digit from the header and the listing, so use the header number and confirm it when you enquire [1].
