Finding a Gardener in Barlborough: Sorting out a dreary and overgrown garden is not everyone's cup of tea, so if you find yourself in this situation you should not be afraid to ask for some outside assistance. Now, you might be tempted to bring in the "fella down the street" who you have heard does some gardening, or more sensibly contact a proper Barlborough gardener. While it isn't necessary to have qualifications to work as a gardener in Barlborough, professional usually beat that "guy down the road" hands down when it comes to gardening knowledge.
You certainly don't want your cherished garden to be in any way mistreated by an ignorant or uninformed "gardener" who is just in it for a buck. So, your main objective must be to find a trustworthy Barlborough gardener who has a reputation for doing an excellent job. If you've got trees, plants and shrubs needing special attention, this will become more important still. Take your time and get a proper Barlborough gardener.
The thing with gardens is that the jobs that need doing are routine, the same things need doing perhaps weekly, fortnightly or monthly. The frequency of visits by your gardener will increase throughout the spring and summer and may not be necessary at all in winter. The list of the most common gardening jobs will come as no surprise and includes the likes of hedge trimming, mowing lawns, weeding and general tidying. Bigger tasks such as patio installation, cleaning driveways, fence repairs and waste removal can also be handled by the majority of gardeners.
Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "geezer down the street" may be happy to charge £10 to £15 an hour, a figure of £20 per hour is more usual for professionals. It is unlikely that any gardener will be able to achieve very much in just one hour. Some gardeners may even insist on a minimum slot of two or three hours. Getting to and from your house, unloading and re-loading tools and equipment, and transporting your garden waste to the local tip are all factors that they have to consider before taking on a gardening job.
It should never be necessary to pay your gardener in advance of doing the work, give short shrift to anybody who asks for this. Exceptions can be made when large jobs like hard landscaping are involved, some money up front might then be appropriate. Ensure you have some cash to hand on gardening day because most gardeners prefer this kind of payment when they have finished. Make sure that you get a receipt, no matter what type of payment you agree on, this will avoid arguments down the line.
A list of required tasks will help your gardener to plan his/her day, clearly lay out you exact requirements at the start. Planning out exactly what goes where in your garden is important, the help and guidance of your gardener will help you to get it right. Some gardeners are not willing to dispose of all your garden waste, ensuring that yours will do this should be a priority.
Gardening makes you thirsty so keep yours supplied with drinks if you're at home. Your gardener will be grateful for such kindness. It helps to keep things friendly, so popping out for a chat every now and again will help to do this and also give you the chance to get some tips from your gardener. This is not to say you should stand there all day gabbing, this will merely hinder your gardener and stop him/her from doing their job.
