David P - Northcote, April 2019

Trust this man!

We weren't entirely sure what we were looking for in our small backyard, so I let James quiz me. Once quizzed, James could work out what our needs were. Although James didn't physically do the job, with his knowledge he provided a plan and the plant selection.

Before we contacted James, we had another garden design consultant visit us. Only after we met James did we realise how average the previous consultant was.

James comes across as highly professional, humorous and is an absolute pleasure to deal with.

I highly recommend James Dawson Design.
