Plants & Shrubs

Hello, I need to do some basic landscaping in front of my house, that will involve removing existing old small plants and planting new plants that will (overtime) cover existing fence. ( Cabbage tree does not need to be removed. ) I am open for your advice. Please see photo. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

Desperate for money, and not willing to do quality work, demanded same day pay. Twice changed times to come to assess work. Ben was very slow responding messages. But when he realised that I am under pressure to complete work he increased initial quote significantly. I needed the work to be done, so had to agree on his quote. Ben arrived on site unexpectedly, when suited him. Quality of work was cutting corners. I finished helping him to tidy up the back yard. Very disappointing.

Tradesperson reply
"Did everything in the quote. There were some leafs that blew overnight (northland is windy) this wasn’t in the quote! Took me 5 mins to clean up. Was happy when I was there, hostile over text when I left. Did not query the quote, accepted it fine. You did not have to accept my quote at all! I altered the quote as she Elena wanted a trellis and need to confirm what plants she wanted. Didn’t demand payment, advised that payment is due on completion of work."
