Finding a Gardener in Dunbar: Don't get stressed out if your garden in Dunbar is looking unkempt and you can never find the time to sort it out, there is always the option of calling in some outside help. It is generally advisable to opt for a professional Dunbar gardener, as opposed to the "fellow down the road" who does a bit of gardening. Though quite often you will find that a professional gardener in Dunbar doesn't hold any horticultural qualifications, he or she will probably be considerably more knowledgeable than your average "chap down the road".
Gardeners who know their stuff will have respect for your garden and treat it much as they would their own. Always be certain to get hold of a local Dunbar gardener who can be counted on. With gardens containing bushes, plants and trees requiring expert attention, getting the right gardener is even more critical. Never compromise, get yourself a decent Dunbar gardener.
Gardens are all about routine maintenance, with jobs to be done fortnightly or monthly, even with smaller gardens. Such routine jobs will need attention more frequently at certain times of the year, in particular spring and summer. As a rule hedge trimming, lawn mowing, weeding and general tidying are the typical gardening jobs that need doing on a regular basis. It is unlikely that your gardener will refuse tasks such as patio installation, repairing fences, driveway cleaning and waste clearance.
Expect to shell out something like £20 per hour for hiring the expertise of a professional gardener, the "fellow down the road" will be a bit cheaper. Usually gardeners will not be happy doing just one hours work. Many gardeners might even insist on a minimum visit time of at least two hours or so. This is understandable when you factor in travelling time, loading/unloading, and waste disposal.
Steer clear of gardeners who request payment in advance. Of course gardeners often ask for payment in cash after the work is completed. Always insist on a receipt whether you pay by cheque, card or cash, proof of payment is important in case of any future arguments.
Be clear what your requirements are before the gardener begins work, have a list of jobs that need doing. In order for you to get the most out of your gardener, you should always be willing to ask for advice and help. Verify that any garden waste resulting from the work will be taken away, not all gardeners will do this. Garden waste is not the easiest stuff to get rid of, so make sure they take it away.
It is polite to offer your gardener a drink or two throughout the day, they can build up quite a thirst with all that hard graft. A gardener will always be appreciative of such kindness and will work even harder to show this gratitude. Pop out for a chat with your gardener from time to time so you can benefit from their ideas and keep a friendly rapport. Having said that, don't hold your gardener up by wittering on all day and preventing him/her from getting on with the job.
