Im looking for a reliable cheap gardener to level and returf my back garden and also remove some ive from off the fence. Ive just had a guy out, and he quoted me £450! garden is around 17ft wide, and roughly 20ft long!

It sounds like a lot of money but likewise I think the pricing is about right. Stripping and levelling is a big job and you need about 40 rolls of turf.

Maybe be better hiring a skip and level the ground yourselves.
Instead of re turfing buy some grass seed and plant it,As for the garden fence .....instead of getting a new one repair the old one and paint it up it will look good as new.
You both will save alot of money.

As I read it, she doesn't want a new fence, she wants some ivy (ive) removing.
