Finding a Gardener in Cotgrave: Bringing in some outside assistance to knock a tired and bedraggled garden back into shape is something many busy people have to do these days, especially after a long and blustery winter. Now, you should be looking for the "right" kind of help in the shape of a professional gardener rather than the "fellow down the road" who puts his hand to anything. Whilst even professional Cotgrave gardeners don't always have formal qualifications, they can usually be relied upon to have more horticultural knowledge than any "bloke down the street" is apt to have.
Everyone likes their garden to be looked after properly and by a gardener who knows his/her stuff. Always be certain to get hold of a local Cotgrave gardener who can be counted on. If you've got trees, plants and shrubs needing special attention, this will become more important still. Find yourself a decent Cotgrave gardener, not just any bloke who knocks on your door.
Routine maintenance is the key with all gardens, whether small or large, with a seemingly endless list of jobs to do. Such routine jobs will need attention more frequently at certain times of the year, in particular spring and summer. People with gardens in Cotgrave most often want jobs done like hedge pruning, grass cutting, general cleaning and weeding. Many quality gardeners in Cotgrave will also be willing to assist with fence repairs, decking installation, cleaning driveways and waste removal.
Getting your garden done by a professional isn't cheap and you are likely to be paying close to £20 per hour for the priviledge. You may find that your gardener will not be prepared to put in just an hours work. For it to be worth their while, gardeners generally favour doing 2 or 3 hours at a stretch. This isn't surprising when you appreciate that they have to get to and from your house, load/unload, and resposibly dispose of your waste at the local recycling centre.
You should be suspicious of any gardener who demands payment in advance. However this could legitimately happen with bigger jobs like patio laying where money for materials is 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. Having proof of payment is essential to avoid quarrels about unpaid bills, so make sure you get a receipt.
Before any work commences make sure your gardener is clear about what needs to be done and has a plan of action to complete it. The layout of your garden is something any decent gardener will be able to help you with, they will know which plants perform best where, don't be scared to ask for guidance. It might be sensible to verify that your gardener disposes of any waste materials as part of the service, not all Cotgrave gardeners do. Unless you have a garden waste bin and you can fit it in that.
Offer your gardener a hot or cold drink while they are at work and the use of a toilet is also helpful. Small things like this will help make the gardener happy in his/her work and a contented gardener may work harder on your behalf. Try to have a regular dialogue with your gardener, during which you can swap ideas, gain some knowledge and forge a friendly rapport at the same time. As with most things in life, moderation is the key. Keep chats short and to the point so that they can get on with what they are there for.
Tree Surgery Cotgrave
Plenty of gardeners in Cotgrave will have some basic knowledge of trees as well as shrubs and plants, and they will often be delighted to do a few essential tree surgery tasks as needed. For incidental pruning and trimming, your local Cotgrave gardener should have all the appropriate skills, but it is advisable to use the specialist services of a trained tree surgeon for any important work.
Trees can swiftly overgrow and cause problems for your home and any nearby utility lines. You should keep a close eye on any trees that are growing on your land, as the roots can also do harm to footings, patios, driveways and sewer lines. If you are concerned that these or other issues are being caused by any of the trees on your property in Cotgrave, have a word with your gardener first for advice.
Garden Clearance Cotgrave
If you allow green waste and general junk to build up in your garden, a time will come when you need a garden clearance service. A few Cotgrave gardeners will be happy to do this, but unless they've got a "Waste Carrier Licence", they'll be restricted on the amount of waste they can take. If the quantities of waste are relatively small they might be able to get rid of a lot of it by using your local council green waste bin (if you have one).
If your garden in Cotgrave has become stacked up with all sorts of trash, and not just green waste, you will probably need to call a certified Cotgrave garden clearance expert, who'll be used to managing and recycling such waste materials. If you have a substantial amount of junk in your garden you could look into hiring a mini-skip. Along with your garden waste, this would perhaps also allow you to clear out your garage, your shed and even your attic, if they're full of clutter too.
"Green" waste would generally be thought of as stuff such as: pruned branches, lawn trimmings, dead plants, shrubs, dirt, turf, logs, hedge clippings, wood shavings and twigs. (Tags: Waste Removal Cotgrave, Garden Clearances Cotgrave, Garden Clearance Cotgrave).
