The Landscaping Show Fix Radio

John Roberts takes a look at sustainable practices, award winning projects & new and innovative sustainable materials. Guests: Angus McLeod (The Sustainable Landscaper) Mike Lote from MJL Garden Design & Marcus Von Thiele from Ecobrix

John Roberts takes a look at bringing automation into your business. As your business grows and the jobs get more ambitious, the kind of machines and equipment you're using get more ambitious as well. Tom Windle, an accomplished Landscaper from Gardenscape, talks about the range of machines he's used, including one that was like driving a tank. Dan Lodge from Watling JCB (www.watling-jcb.co.uk) talks about some of the equipment and machines from JCB, events and training you need to know about and much more 

John Roberts has a look at the issue of rogue traders blighting Landscaping and looks at both sides of the coin. John invites a customer that had massive issues with some work completed by another Landscaper, to join him and discuss the impact of the sub standard work on Jackie and the trade as a result. John also invites a tradesperson who is an absolute stickler for good work done ethically to talk about the issue of cowboys within trade and construction

John Roberts has invited a Landcaper from Scotland, Ruaraidh Neish & Richard McNeil from Northern Ireland to discuss what winter and spring have been like in their parts of the country and how they plan for the summer ahead 

John Roberts is joined again by Dan Kewley from Hampshire and Kevin Fitzpatrick, who is based in Devon, so that they can discuss their approach to working through spring and summer and also give an update on what winter was like for them

John Roberts is joined again by Jamie Johnstone and Harry Barnes from Cotswold Garden Renovations Ltd to talk about their own individual experiences joining the trade and also discuss the trade as a whole
