Areas we cover in BasildonSS13 · SS14 · SS15 · SS16, Borough of Basildon, Essex
Basildon was built as a post-war new town, so a large share of homes in Pitsea, Laindon and Langdon Hills date from the 1950s to 1970s. Much of that stock is now reaching the age where consumer unit upgrades, full rewires, re-plastering and replacement heating systems are common projects, alongside bathroom and kitchen refits.
From a local gardener for regular lawn care to a landscaper for a full garden redesign or a tree surgeon for overgrown trees, one post brings quotes from vetted gardeners across Borough of Basildon.
Gardeners on Ace Services cover the whole Basildon area: the SS13, SS14, SS15 and SS16 postcodes and surrounding villages in Borough of Basildon. Enter your postcode when you post your job to reach the tradespeople who cover your street.

Why Ace Services isa better way to hire
Free to quote, fairer prices.
Posting is free and quoting is free. Only the tradesperson you hire pays a fee, capped at £10, so the price you get is for the work, not for the website.
More options, even for small jobs.
Quoting costs nothing, so tradespeople bother with small jobs too. A dripping tap gets quotes here, not silence.
Decide without the pressure.
Quotes sit in one place until you are ready to look at them. No doorstep sales pitch, no negotiating on the phone with someone you have only just met.
Accurate quotes, first time.
Our assistant asks the questions a tradesperson would ring you to ask. So the quote is priced properly from the start, not changed once someone sees the job.
You choose who gets your number.
Your number and email stay hidden while quotes come in. Your details reach exactly one tradesperson: the one whose quote you accept.
Don't take our word for it.Three things you can check yourself
Real reviews from across the web
Profiles link out to their own website, Google, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok. You can see the reputation they have built everywhere, not just here.
A Trust Score you can check
The Trust Score adds up Google and Facebook reviews, ratings from past Ace customers and years trading. One glance shows who is established and well thought of locally.
Phone-verified identity
Every tradesperson verifies their phone number before they can quote, just as you do when posting a job. No anonymous accounts on either side.

Very easy to use. I got several quotes quickly and booked a plumber the same day.
One request and I had several tradespeople to choose from. It saved me a lot of ringing round.
Simple, and I felt in control. Having the quotes in one place made the decision easier.
Three quotes for a boiler replacement and my phone never rang once. I felt completely in control.
It asked questions about my bathroom job I hadn't thought of, so the quotes were far more accurate. Ended up hiring a great plumber.

Gardeners in BasildonYour questions answered
How much does a gardener cost in Basildon?
It depends on the job. Scope, access and materials all move the price. The quickest way to find the real going rate in Basildon is to compare quotes: post your job free on Ace Services and up to 3 vetted local gardeners will quote directly, with no obligation to hire.
How do I know a gardener in Basildon is trustworthy?
Every tradesperson on Ace Services verifies their phone number, links out to the pages they have added, from their own website to Google, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, and builds a Trust Score from their Google and Facebook reviews, ratings by previous Ace Services customers and how long they have been trading. Check all three before you accept a quote.
How quickly can I get a gardener in Basildon?
Your job goes live to verified gardeners covering SS13, SS14, SS15 and SS16 as soon as you post it, and you get an email and push notification each time a quote arrives. Response times vary by trade and season, but quotes come to you, so there's no ringing around.
Is it free to get gardening quotes in Basildon?
Yes, completely free. Posting a job, receiving quotes and hiring costs you nothing. Tradespeople pay nothing to quote either, just a small success fee of 2% (max £10) if you hire them, so quotes aren't inflated to cover lead fees.
