Finding a Gardener in Burneside: When your Burneside garden starts looking rather droopy and under the weather, it is either time to get your gardening togs on or time to call in some expert help. When you take the plunge and do this, be careful who you choose. Do you call the "chap down the street" or an established local Burneside gardener? The thing is that the "chap down the street" will know how to trim your hedge and mow your lawn, but probably not much else, whilst a professional will have more in depth knowledge. The decision is of course up to you.
If you cherish your garden you will want a gardener with some savvy, who appreciates what you have and looks after it correctly. So, your main objective must be to find a trustworthy Burneside gardener who has a reputation for doing an excellent job. This is even more important if you have plants or trees in your garden which need specialist care. Don't settle for less than the best.
All gardens, whether large or small need regular upkeep and maintenance with lots of jobs to be done. These repeat jobs will have to be done a lot more often in springtime and summer, dying off to nothing by winter. The most common jobs that people with gardens need doing in Burneside are hedge cutting, weeding, mowing lawns and general cleaning. It isn't unusual for professional Burneside gardeners to help you out with waste clearance, fence repairs, cleaning driveways and decking installation.
Experienced gardeners don't come cheap and if you are being charged around £20 per hour, that is about average. Depending on the state of your garden it is likely that your gardener will need more than just one hour to make an impression. To make it worthwhile and to make an impression, gardeners normally like to put in two to three hours at a time. 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.
Give short shrift to any Burneside gardener who expects to be paid up front before doing any work. Exceptions to this rule could be in respect of large projects such as decking or fencing where considerable amounts of materials are needed. Quite often a gardener will ask to be paid in cash once the work is complete and that is of course fine. Once you have paid your gardener get a receipt, so there are no disputes about unpaid bills.
A list of required tasks will help your gardener to plan his/her day, clearly lay out you exact requirements at the start. Once your gardener starts you will have an expert at your fingertips, make the most of it and get plenty of advice and guidance. Getting rid of your lawn trimmings and hedge clippings won't always be part of the service so ensure that in your case it is. This should really be part of the service.
It is customary to offer your gardener a hot or cold drink, though many bring their own refreshments. A gardener will always be appreciative of such kindness and will work even harder to show this gratitude. So that you can forge a friendly relationship with your gardener it is often a nice idea to pop out for a chat now and again. This also helps you to gain some additional gardening knowhow and useful tips. However, avoid incessant prattling which will only annoy the gardener and impede his/her progress.
