The last couple of months here at Oakleigh Manor have been astonishing; enquiries have been been coming through the office thick and fast and everyone is rushed off of their feet. But we wouldn’t have any other way; we find that busyness only improves our company values as well as our ethos. These ultimately help […]
Some of you may have caught a video we had scheduled for release on social media last night. It revealed a large landscaping project we carried out in Loughton in Essex a year ago. Unlike some projects, this one wasn’t just limited to one or two of our services; a number of them were utilised […]
