Finding a Gardener in Broughton Astley: If you wake up one day and realise just how untidy and overgrown your garden has become, it might be appropriate to call in somebody to help you out, unless you can find the time in your busy life to tackle it yourself. Now, you might be tempted to bring in the "fella down the road" who you have heard does some gardening, or more sensibly contact a proper Broughton Astley gardener. The chances are that "chap down the street" will not have much gardening knowledge, while the professional garder will probably have horticultural qualifications.
Everyone likes their garden to be looked after properly and by a gardener who knows his/her stuff.

Other jobs like laying patios, waste removal, repairing fences and driveway cleaning are also within most gardeners remit.
While that "fella down the road" might quote you ten to fifteen pounds an hour to "do" your garden, an experienced gardener will come at a considerably higher price (£20 per hour maybe). You should anticipate your gardener needing more time than one hour is he/she is to get your garden looking good again. In order for them to do all the neccessary work they may need to put in at least two or three hours. It is not just a case of working on your garden, they need to allow for travelling time and visits to the local rubbish tip.
It should never be necessary to pay your gardener in advance of doing the work, give short shrift to anybody who asks for this. Big projects such as garden fencing may be an exception, because materials have to be bought and a deposit may be required. Of course gardeners often ask for payment in cash after the work is completed. Whether you pay by cheque, cash or card, insist on a receipt, this will prevent later disputes over payment.
Always explain exactly what your needs are, a list of projects will make things clearer for the gardener. Most gardeners will be happy to offer guidance and advice on various aspects of gardening, make use of this help whenever you can. Grass cuttings and hedge clippings can be a pain to get rid of, so make certain that your gardener includes the disposal of these as part of the service.
Though usually a gardener will bring along a flask or bottle of water, it is nice to offer him/her a cup of tea while working hard on your garden. Keeping a gardener "sweet" with little acts of kindness like this may be repaid by increased efforts on their part. By having a quick chat with your gardener every once in a while, you can pick up some tips while also building a friendly rapport. Constant interruptions should however be avoided.
