3. How do I get a quote from JAX?
To get a quote, you can contact JAX via phone, email, or through the website enquiry form. Once you provide basic details about your property, location, and the service required, we arrange a site visit. This allows our team to assess the property, identify requirements, consider any challenges, and discuss your preferences or design ideas. For landscaping, lawn installation, or garden redesigns, this includes reviewing soil, existing features, size, and layout. For driveways, paving, or fencing, we check measurements, ground conditions, materials, and access points. Commercial properties may require additional assessment for traffic, safety, and regulatory compliance. After the site visit, we provide a detailed, transparent quotation outlining the scope of work, recommended materials, timescales, and costs. Our quotes are competitive, accurate, and free from hidden charges. JAX prioritises clear communication throughout the process, answering all client questions and offering expert advice on options, materials, and maintenance requirements.

Ongoing maintenance and seasonal service quotes are tailored to visit frequency, property size, and specific requirements, ensuring value for money.

Yes. JAX provides emergency and rapid-response services, particularly for storm damage, fallen trees, blocked driveways, or hazardous outdoor situations. Our team can quickly assess and resolve urgent problems, ensuring safety and preventing further damage. Emergency tree removal, storm debris clearance, and urgent repairs to fencing or structures are carried out using trained personnel and professional equipment. Commercial clients benefit from minimal disruption to operations, while domestic clients regain safe and accessible outdoor areas. We advise contacting us immediately via phone for emergencies, so we can dispatch the appropriate team. Rapid response may also include temporary measures to stabilise property, followed by full repair or restoration work.

11. How long does a typical landscaping project take?
The duration of a landscaping project with JAX depends on the size, complexity, and type of work involved. Smaller domestic projects, such as garden redesigns, planting schemes, or turf installation, may take a few days to a week. Larger domestic projects that include patios, driveways, fencing, pergolas, or retaining walls may take several weeks. Commercial projects, including office grounds, retail developments, schools, or industrial sites, often involve multiple areas, drainage solutions, hard and soft landscaping, and structural features, meaning timelines can extend to several weeks or even months. During the planning phase, JAX conducts a thorough site assessment to determine the project scope, ground conditions, access, and any potential challenges. This ensures that an accurate schedule is provided. Factors such as weather, material availability, and client requirements may influence timing, and we communicate any adjustments proactively. We prioritise efficient, high-quality work, ensuring that each stage—from groundwork, planting, and installation to finishing touches—is completed professionally. Clients receive clear timelines and progress updates. We also coordinate with any third-party contractors, such as building or drainage teams, to minimise delays. JAX aims to complete projects within agreed schedules without compromising safety, quality, or attention to detail. Post-project, we provide guidance on maintenance and care to ensure that landscaping, lawns, or outdoor features remain in optimal condition for years to come.
12. What types of lawns do you install?
JAX installs a variety of lawn types suitable for domestic gardens, commercial spaces, and public areas. For instant results, we offer premium roll-out turf, which provides immediate coverage and a professional, even finish. Turf varieties are carefully selected to suit Northern Ireland’s climate, soil conditions, and intended use, whether decorative lawns, family gardens, or high-traffic commercial areas. We also provide grass seeding for clients seeking a cost-effective solution or for larger-scale projects. Grass seed options include standard lawn blends, shade-tolerant varieties, and drought-resistant species for different conditions. The lawn installation process begins with a site assessment, including soil analysis, drainage review, and removal of existing vegetation. Soil is prepared and enriched to encourage strong root development, and the turf or seed is installed with precise techniques to ensure uniform coverage. Post-installation care includes watering schedules, fertilisation advice, and maintenance tips for both domestic and commercial clients. For commercial properties, such as office parks, schools, and sports facilities, JAX ensures lawns are durable, easy to maintain, and safe for regular use. Our team can also provide long-term lawn maintenance packages, including aeration, scarifying, mowing, and seasonal treatments, ensuring lush, healthy, and visually appealing lawns throughout the year.
13. Are your services insured and certified?
Yes. JAX Ground and Property Maintenance maintains full public liability and employer’s liability insurance for all domestic and commercial projects. Our team is trained and experienced, with certifications relevant to landscaping, tree care, fencing, machinery operation, and health and safety compliance. For tree work, we follow industry-approved methods and hold appropriate qualifications in arboriculture. All equipment is regularly serviced and meets safety standards. Insurance ensures that both our team and our clients are protected against accidental damage or injury during the project. For commercial clients, adherence to safety regulations, risk assessments, and compliance with local authority requirements is standard practice.

Our commitment to safety, professionalism, and compliance is central to every service we offer, from routine garden maintenance to large-scale landscaping, paving, or tree care projects.
14. How do you handle commercial contracts?
JAX manages commercial contracts with professionalism, efficiency, and reliability. We work with businesses, landlords, property managers, schools, hotels, retail sites, and public facilities to maintain attractive, safe, and functional outdoor spaces. Our approach begins with a site survey to understand client requirements, property size, traffic levels, and any regulatory or compliance obligations. We provide detailed proposals, including scope of work, schedules, costs, and maintenance plans. Commercial services include landscaping, tree care, lawn installation, fencing, outdoor cleaning, driveways and paving, seasonal maintenance, and emergency response. Contracts can be one-off projects, seasonal packages, or ongoing maintenance agreements, depending on client needs.

We consider factors such as soil conditions, drainage, sun exposure, plant selection, and existing features. Our design service covers layout planning, planting schemes, hard landscaping elements, pathways, patios, retaining walls, fencing, and bespoke outdoor structures.
