Pond maintenance/management in Maidenhead area
Morning all. As per thread title I'm looking for recommendations for a pond specialist for managing a large 'natural' pond in the Maidenhead area.

Thanks in advance.

Fed up with Mowers, need recommendations

I've always found top dressing difficult to apply in the pursuit of a level lawn. It is as they say an up-hill taskI've recently made a grass terrace , semi circular , about 4-5m in diameter, (with brick retaining wall . In my haste I may not have compacted the earth correctly, and so the lawn itself could do with raising somewhat. Maybe an inch or so in places.What would you advise?

Ride on mower charge
I usually charge roughly £1 per minute for grass cutting with a minimum of £20 for any job size. And around £50 per hour with my ride on stiga mulcher. Although I'm aware this makes no sense whatsoever in regard to cost of machine. What do you charge?

Capillary Matting for flood control
Hi All,I'm doing some landscaping where I will be laying weed control membrane with a slate covering.My client has had some issues with surface water flooding so we are considering laying capilary matting under the membrane in an attempt to slow the transfer of water.Has anyone done this or can offer an alternative solution. The area was previously covered with turf, which would have a held an amount of water and slowed its movement.Thanks all
