Landscaping Expert Decision Flow

What should you do when landscaping works go wrong?

Use this simple decision tool to identify whether the next step is contractor discussion, independent technical opinion, solicitor advice, insurance notification or urgent safety action.

This tool gives practical guidance only. It is not legal advice. A solicitor should advise on contract, recovery, termination, payment disputes and litigation. An independent expert can advise on technical standards, defects, causation and reasonable remedial routes.

3

What outcome do you want?

The correct route depends on what you want to achieve.

Is there urgency or risk?

Safety, damage and evidence preservation should come before argument.
