BALI MEMBERS OFFER TOTAL PEACE OF MIND
Are you looking to procure the
services of a trusted local landscape
professional, or maybe you work
in the industry and are interested
in joining? The British Association
of Landscape Industries (BALI)
has over 900 Registered members
covering contracting, grounds
maintenance, landscape architects,
garden designers and suppliers, all
offering a diverse range of services
and products.
Established in 1972,
BALI members have
been offering trade
and public customers
the highest standard
of craftmanship,
professionalism and
customer service
for over 47 years.
Representing over 1,800 members,
BALI is the leading trade association
for landscape professionals in the UK.
The application process to become
a Registered member is strict and
rigorous and includes a thorough
vetting process which sees landscape

companies demonstrate that they
can operate to the highest industry
standards.
The service can provide reassurance
for both parties if a dispute should
arise from the work they have been
asked to perform.
Depending on the type of work
carried out, with project sizes
typically ranging from up to £5,000
to over £1 million, membership is
only granted to companies who meet
the stringent terms and conditions
of membership. Once granted,
members are able to use the BALI
Registered logo amongst many other
benefits.
To ensure standards are maintained,
Registered members are also
reassessed through BALI’s Quality
Standard Review (QSR) which
ensures they continue to deliver the
highest level of service.
As well as the QSR process, BALI also
provides a client mediation service,
the Dispute Resolution Service (DRS).
DRS can be used by BALI Registered
Contractor or Registered Designer
members, or indeed clients who have
hired a BALI Registered member to
carry out landscaping works.
