How verification works
Three checks before any gardener can be listed
No gardener appears on MyApproved until their identity, business and insurance checks have passed. Each check is confirmed on their public profile, not self-declared.
Identity checked
Every applicant submits a government-issued photo ID, which is verified against a live selfie before their profile is created. No identity match. No listing.
Business verified
The business is confirmed as registered on Companies House. Every professional listed trades under a real, registered company.
Insurance confirmed and monitored
Public liability insurance is confirmed genuine and in date before listing, and cover is monitored so the listing is withdrawn if it lapses.
A gardener's insurance cover stays monitored after they're listed. If cover lapses or a check falls out of date, the listing is withdrawn until it's put right.
