"I have known [Millstone Landscapes] for around 15 years in my capacity as Parking Services manager for CDC with a responsibility for the maintenance of the parking facilities that the council provide.
During this time Millstone Landscapes have carried out weed control and landscape maintenance on a monthly basis, which is normally carried out over a three day period. They have also carried out ad hoc work of shrub and tree planting to borders in car parks after designing a particular scheme. all the work they have undertaken for us is normally to a high standard or workmanship that produces a quality finish.
As a consequence I would have no hesitation in recommending Millstone Landscapes."

"Millstone Landscapes Ltd have been responsible for the landscaping of two large adjacent areas of POS (7,200m2 and 32,220m2 respectively) on a new development in Thatcham, Berkshire. The project was in excess of half a million pounds. Each site contains a flood alleviation pond, swails, soil bunds, wildlife planting, recreational grass and litter/dog bins.

Despite hostile working conditions (the sites were subject to severe flooding in 2007 and subsequent heavy rainfall in 2008, coupled with a high level of local vandalism) the smaller site was completed to specification and thus immediately conveyed to its period of maintenance prior to full transfer to WBC in June 2010, the larger site is due to be completed shortly.
“The sites have been completed and are being maintained to a very high standard by Millstone Landscapes Ltd. The company is attentive, co-operative, pro-active and has communicated excellently with me at WBC throughout the landscaping and maintenance periods. I should be delighted to work with them again on other projects."

“We would like to thank your company for the outstanding work that you have completed on both POS areas but with particular emphasis to POS 1... It is refreshing to work with a company who can produce an excellent end product with a limited original layout design. This can only prove that your company and personnel have the imagination and skill to envisage the end result and what can be achieved given a degree of talent and ability.
Thank you.”

“We have now been working with Millstone Landscapes for many years and during this period have successfully worked together on in excess of 100 developments of various sizes and complexity.
During this period our business relationship has grown along with Millstones ability to produce a comprehensive service in respect of landscaping from a projects inception to its completion
This is largely due to Millstones dedicated team of professionals who strive to achieve their objective, in sometimes the most challenging of circumstances.
When asked for this letter of recommendation I did not hesitate to accept the invitation as this is one of the few companies I would actually provide a recommendation for due to their all round ability in serving their element of the construction process. This varying from £2.5 million country homes to urban inner city apartment blocks to volume house building developments incorporating areas of open space, sports pavilions, buffer planting, adoption works, after care works, planning drawings and liaisons with local authorities.
All I can wish for is that our businesses continue to grow and the synergy that our businesses clearly have continues in the current format.”

Arthur Gliaubertas of Millstone Landscapes has asked if I would provide a reference, as you may consider utilising their services.
We, like most divisions had a nucleus of preferred landscapers, and were reluctant to try someone new, however, Millstone have proved to be a great addition to our s/c list.
They have an eye for detail and creativity on show area design, are competitive, negotiable, they have sufficient plant and labour to meet the demands of our construction department and have recently received praise amongst others for the quality and presentation of our dual branded site at Felpham.
Should you require any further info give me a call

“I write to thank you and your team for providing a very pleasant experience whilst landscaping our garden. The guys were unfailingly cheerful and considerate, quick to consult and keen to produce a pleasing result at every turn, and your presence on several occasions was reassuring. The result is everything I could have wished for. A few weeks on, after rain and now snow, it looks none the worse for wear, and I look forward to the spring and seeing everything come to life.”
