What our customers say

"South Cambs recently transformed our new build garden into the perfect outdoor space for us. They designed and built a decking area for outdoor dining with surrounding low wall and planting, added extra paving with a curved edge to planting along our fence and lawn, created & seeded an area for wild flowers and added three trees with irrigation system and a great choice of plants as well as a screened off space to hide ugly bins and shed. Ben and his team were very professional, hard working and polite throughout, a real pleasure to have around. I highly recommend them!"
