## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this tradesperson's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I contacted Paul Hood as he had done a wonderful job of landscaping the show homes in Karaka Harbourside. He was able to design and build a garden for me which kept to well within my budget. He sourced and supplied all the plants for me and placed them where they should be planted as we had agreed to do the planting ourselves. He called back after the planting to see if we needed any help or advice. I contacted him again this year to do a pruning on the trees which he has just completed."

## Before you hire a landscaper
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour. A vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
- Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials'. Agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
- Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated. Protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
- In New Zealand, restricted building work must be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner, and all electrical, plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying by a licensed tradesperson (EWRB for electricians, PGDB for plumbers and gasfitters). Check the public register before you hire.
- For residential building work of $30,000 or more you are legally entitled to a written contract and a disclosure statement setting out the tradesperson's skills, licences and insurance. Ask for both before work starts.
