Finding a Gardener in Castledawson: If your garden in Castledawson is getting messy and you really don't have the time to keep it up to scratch, you should not be embarrassed to ask for some help. Now, you might be tempted to bring in the "guy down the street" who you have heard does some gardening, or more sensibly contact a proper Castledawson gardener. The chances are that "chap down the street" will not have much gardening knowledge, while the professional garder will probably have horticultural qualifications. That of course is a decision that you will have to make.
Your garden is precious and you don't want it ruined by somebody who doesn't know how to appreciate it. So, your main objective must be to find a trustworthy Castledawson gardener who has a reputation for doing an excellent job. Even if in your trees and plants are pretty ordinary they still need to be handled with care and dedication. Don't put up with "rogue trader" gardeners, choose a dependable one.
There are plenty of jobs that require regular attention even if you've only got a small garden. Such jobs require even more attention during spring and summer when rain and heat generates increased growth. Typically people with gardens in Castledawson need jobs done like weeding, trimming hedges, lawn mowing and general cleaning. Other jobs like decking installation, waste removal, fence repairs and driveway cleaning are also within most gardeners remit.
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. One hours work is not enough to make much impression on your garden, so you should reckon on them needing to spend more time than this. To make it worthwhile and to make an impression, gardeners normally like to put in two to three hours at a time. 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 is not the norm for Castledawson gardeners to demand money up front, be very suspicious of anyone who does this. Having said that, a deposit for materials may be required for bigger projects like landscaping. When the work has been completed to your satisfaction it would not be unusual for your gardener to ask for payment in cash. No matter what form of payment you agree on, be sure to get a receipt so there are no arguments later on.
Let the gardener know about your precise expectations before any work begins. Don't be afraid to ask for advice, your gardener is the best person to tell you which plants are best for your garden. 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. It is generally better for them to take it rather than cluttering up your garden.
If you are at home while the gardening is being done, keep your gardener supplied with drinks. Considerations like this will always be appreciated and will often result in a better standard of work. Building a friendly relationship with your gardener is always a good idea, it enables you to soak up a little of their knowledge and ideas. Having said that, don't hold your gardener up by wittering on all day and preventing him/her from getting on with the job.
