Initial Review
Service: Garden design and installation, ongoing plant care and maintenance advice
Olena made the garden in my house before the war, and it was very nice. She did everything neatly and on time, and after that, she also came and looked after the plants, giving me a lot of advice on how to care for the garden and what I should do. Even now, if I need something, I can call her for advice. I was very satisfied with her work. The price felt fair for us - others asked much more, but her work is much better.

Initial Review
Service: Resurfaced terrace with transverse coating and removed existing tile
I found OpayGarden on Instagram and needed my terrace redone with a transverse coating, plus removing the old tile. Pauline was very available - she came quickly to see the site, we set an agenda, she advised me on the type of coating with mood boards, even suggested pots she brings from Morocco to dress the terrace, and everything was cleaned after. The work was done very well from A to Z and she kept checking in afterward, communication was perfect; there were tiny delays here and there but nothing that bothered me. Overall I’m very satisfied and the price felt fair for what was done.

Service: Gardening
Marcelo has worked for me for maybe, more than three or four years in my company. He has done exceptional work, it was impeccable! The price is more than acceptable, considering all the works he has done.
