Finding a Gardener in Devonport: If your Devonport garden is in need of some attention and nobody in your household is willing to tackle it, don't be afraid to ask for a little help and assistance. Now, you might be tempted to bring in the "guy down the road" who you have heard does some gardening, or more sensibly contact a proper Devonport gardener. The thing is that the "fella down the road" 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.
Your garden is precious and you don't want it ruined by somebody who doesn't know how to appreciate it. So take care to track down a local Devonport gardener who can be trusted to do a decent job. Some plants and trees need special care, in which case this is even more important. Never compromise, get yourself a decent Devonport gardener.
Large and small gardens alike need routine maintenance with various jobs that need attending to. The frequency of visits by your gardener will increase throughout the spring and summer and may not be necessary at all in winter. Typically people with gardens in Devonport need jobs done like weeding, general cleaning, mowing lawns and hedge cutting. There are plenty more jobs that might need doing for example repairing fences, waste removal, cleaning driveways and patio installation, most Devonport gardeners will also be willing to tackle these.
How much you pay depends on who you hire, the hourly rate for a professional gardener will be at least £20, while you might get away with £10 - £15 if you take a chance on that "bloke down the street". Gardening takes time and one hour will not be enough for most gardeners to make much progress on your garden. It's possible that your gardener will not be prepared to work for periods of less than 2 hours or more. Travel to and away from your home, bringing in and taking away mowers and tools, and the responsible disposal of your waste all have to be factored in.
Respectable gardeners in Devonport would not dream of asking for payment up front for their services, therefore you should be very wary of anyone who makes this request. However, you might expect to pay a deposit for large jobs such as patio laying. It isn't uncommon for a gardener to ask to be paid in cash, though only after the gardening work is completed to your satisfaction. Irrespective of what kind of payment you agree with your gardener, always ask for a receipt as proof that he/she has been paid.
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. 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. Check that your gardener will remove any waste such as lawn trimmings and branches, some do not. Garden waste is not the easiest stuff to get rid of, so make sure they take it away.
If you are at home while the gardening is being done, keep your gardener supplied with drinks. Such kindnesses are much appreciated and will likely be repaid by extra efforts on your behalf. 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. It is not however a good idea to pester them constantly which will have the effect of annoying them and slowing the work down.

Some gardeners in Devonport might even hold a Waste Carriers Licence, which permits them to take larger quantities and different kinds of waste. If you've got access to a council garden waste bin (you generally have to pay extra for this), you may be able to dispose of most of it gradually, if the amounts of waste are only relatively small.
