Finding a Gardener in Blackwall: If you have a garden that is looking tired and overgrown, the time has come to get it back in shape. If you are too busy or too idle to do it yourself you are going to have to call in some help. You could ask the "guy down the road" who does a bit of gardening or you could call on a professional Blackwall gardener. While you don't need horticultural qualifications to be a gardener, most professional gardeners in the Blackwall area will have a lot more knowledge than that "guy down the street" is likely to have. You will have to decide what is best for your situation.
Everyone likes their garden to be looked after properly and by a gardener who knows his/her stuff. This means that finding a local Blackwall gardener who does a good job and can be trusted should be your aim. Trees and shrubs may require expert management, meaning this is more important than ever. Don't settle for any old gardener, get a decent one.
There is a seemingly endless list of jobs to be done in the garden, even if it is relatively small. You will need to book in more regular visits by your gardener in the spring and summer as these jobs pile up. In general general cleaning, weeding, grass cutting and hedge pruning are the common jobs that people in Blackwall need doing in their gardens. Most professional Blackwall gardeners will also help with patio installation, waste clearance, driveway cleaning and fence repairs.
On the subject of price, this can vary with areas and gardeners, but charges of about twenty pounds per hour are normal and may be even higher. Generally a professional gardener will want to spend more than one hour on your garden. It is often not worth their while to do much less than two hours gardening at a time. This is not excessive if you consider that they have to drive to your house and back and might need to take your waste to the local rubbish tip, which could be miles away.
Steer clear of gardeners who request payment in advance. Big projects such as decking or fencing may be an exception, because materials have to be bought and a deposit may be required. If your gardener asks to be paid in cash after the job is complete, this is not something to be worried about and is normal within the trade. Whether you pay by cheque, card or cash, insist on a receipt, this will prevent later disputes over payment.
Before work starts prepare a plan of expected tasks with the gardener, this will help them to live up to your expectations. Your gardener will be there to give you advice and guidance on any aspect of your garden, so make the most of his/her knowledge. Removing and disposing of lawn and hedge clippings isn't always part of the service so make sure that your gardener will do this for you. Unless you have a garden waste bin and you can fit it in that.
If you are at home while the gardening is being done, keep your gardener supplied with drinks. You may be repaid for thoughtfulness like this by a better service and a happier gardener. Engage in some conversation with your gardener whenever you get the chance so that you can build a friendly relationship and benefit from their knowledge and ideas. This doesn't mean you should stay there chattering all day though, you will be simply delaying their progress.
Garden Clearance Blackwall
You'll discover that many Blackwall gardeners will be ready to do a limited amount of garden clearance, provided that there's only green waste and there isn't too much involved. Some gardeners in Blackwall may even hold a Waste Carrier's Licence, which enables them to take larger amounts and different sorts of waste. If you've got a local council green waste bin (you typically have to pay extra for this), you might be able to get rid of the majority of it gradually, if the quantities of waste are only modest.
Needless to say, a lot of gardens in Blackwall are heaped up with all kinds of garbage, and not merely "green" waste, so for this type of clearance you'll probably have to get in touch with a licenced Blackwall garden clearance expert. If you've got a lot of rubbish in your garden you might also consider renting a mini-skip. Adopting this approach would make it possible for you to maybe have a clear out in your shed, your garage and possibly even your loft, along with your garden waste.
"Green" waste will usually be thought of as items like: topsoil, twigs, logs, wood chippings, tree branches, plants, lawn trimmings, hedge clippings, shrubs and turf.
