Bananalama Landscaping Ltd

“Bravo Bananalama! They did such an amazing job on our ugly garden. They were open to our ideas and helped develop them to get the Japanese inspired garden that we dreamed of. The work ethic of every member of the team can not be faulted. They worked so hard to get the job done in all weathers. They were a happy team, approachable and self sufficient. Huge thanks to Gareth, Kaden and Callum for their inspiration, work and a brilliant result. We would recommend them 100% without hesitation. Beth & Nick McMillan”

“Callum and Summer took down old cracked rock walls on a steep slope for me. They replaced them with wooden retaining walls, fixed the hand rails and concreted. Great to have around, excellent communication, good pricing. Highly recommended. Thanks Callum.”

“Could not have asked for a better landscaper to complete our project. The hole team was great, and the job was done with such great care and top quality. We gave Callum the idea we had in our mind and he created the dream outdoor living area for us to share with our family for many years to come. It was so much more than what we could of ever imagined. Definitely will be calling bananalama for future work that we are needing done.”

“Bananalama have done work for us in the past, putting down aggregate concrete in our side yard. They did an excellent job and we then contacted them to rebuild a retaining wall in 2018. The team have been fabulous to work with; they were very flexible as the design for the wall changed several times - they were very happy to accommodate us. The final result has been stunning. In 2019, we have again hired them to completely overhaul our back yard and build a new shed out the front of the house. Their ideas and designs have been great and the quality of the work excellent. They are great at keeping us informed. We highly recommend them.”

“EDITED: We were planningon cancelling our project after waiting over 7 months for work to begin. We understood delays were possible because of the effects of COVID, but the communication was so poor that we often had to email/call ourselves for updates on a project start date. Anytime there was a further delay, we were given excuses that ranged from staffing issues, COVID disruptions, misunderstanding of certain dates etc. The latter was the biggest red flag for us - Originally we were told verbally that work would begin in February/March, then this was apparently a misunderstanding, and it was corrected to April/May. They finally give a start date of May 23rd, but did not show the entire week. We asked what happened, and they said sorry, they thought that was a different week. This is not a good enough excuse - we expect you to mean what you say and after confusion and lack of communication around start dates, our confidence was lost at this point. Each time we called to complain, it always became a pity party for the company, with no consideration of how this affected the client and their lives. We lost confidence in their ability to do the work and in a time frame that was manageable for us. We adjusted oue original project to only include a retaining wall, which unfortunately was done incorrectly and is needing to be fixed now. Thankfully it looks as if this will be rectified quickly, but we are unlikely to use their services in the future.”
