Finding a Gardener in Dunscroft: 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 "geezer down the street" who puts his hand to anything. Generally speaking that "chap down the street" will have very little gardening knowledge, while any self-respecting Dunscroft gardener be bursting with horticultural expertise.
Gardeners who know their stuff will have respect for your garden and treat it much as they would their own. So, your aim should be to find a gardener in the Dunscroft area who can be trusted to do a good job on your garden. Trees and shrubs may require expert management, meaning this is more important than ever. Don't settle for second best, get a professional gardener.
No matter whether your garden in Dunscroft is large or small the jobs keep piling up. Of course such jobs will be more regular during the spring and summer months. Typically weeding, hedge trimming, general cleaning and mowing lawns are the more common jobs that folk with gardens in Dunscroft need done. Additional tasks like decking installation, cleaning driveways, repairing fences and waste removal will also be within the capabilities of most experienced gardeners.
Gardeners rates vary, but professionals will probably set you back around £20 per hour, with that "fella down the street" accepting perhaps £10 or £12 for the same time period. 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.
If a gardener asks for payment up front you should be very wary, as this is not normal practice. This rule may not apply with larger projects such as patio laying when payment of some money for materials is normal. 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. No matter if you pay your gardener with cheque, card or cash, ask for a receipt, you don't want any disputes or arguments about payments down the road.
Make out a list of gardening jobs that require attention and be transparent about your expectations before the work starts. Any decent Dunscroft gardener will be more than willing to share their knowledge of plants and shrubs, use their guidance to choose what is best for your garden. It is always a good idea to check if your gardener includes the removal of waste in his/her service, this is not always the case. Unless of course you have a compost heap and want to keep it for that.
If you are at home while the gardening is being done, keep your gardener supplied with drinks. There is no telling what advantages may be gained by you for such little acts of kindness. It is useful to always have a friendly relationship with your gardener, so try to have regular chats with him/her, sharing ideas and opinions. Having said that, don't hold your gardener up by wittering on all day and preventing him/her from getting on with the job.
Garden Design Dunscroft
While a gardener may be a genius when it comes to looking after your garden, it might be a different "kettle of fish" when it comes to garden design. Generally the average gardener prefers to stick to routine gardening tasks, leaving garden design to the experts. The best way to find out if your gardener does garden design is to have a chat with them. You might end up having to find a specialist.
Tree Surgery Dunscroft
When required, some of the better gardeners in Dunscroft will be quite willing to do some basic tree surgery, as the majority of them will have a fundamental knowledge of plants and trees. For incidental clipping and pruning, your local Dunscroft gardener should have all the required skills, but it is best to use the expert services of a trained tree surgeon for any important work.
Larger trees can soon become overgrown and cause problems for your house and any nearby electricity lines. Additionally footings, sewage lines, patio areas and drives can be irreparably damaged by tree roots, therefore keeping a watchful eye on any trees that are growing on your land is essential. Speak to your gardener if you believe that any of the trees on your property in Dunscroft are causing issues, as they will probably be able to help to remedy the issue, or know someone else who can.
Garden Clearance Dunscroft
Whilst most gardeners will be willing to do a certain amount of garden clearance in Dunscroft, most of them won't hold a Waste Carrier's Licence, and will therefore be constrained in the type and quantity of waste they're able to remove. If the amount of waste are minimal you may be able to get rid of most of it using your local council green waste bin (if you have got access to one).
You'll possibly need to contact a certified garden clearance expert, if like many other homeowners in Dunscroft, you have a garden that is heaped up with all kinds of rubbish, and not merely green waste. You might also think about renting a mini-skip if you've got a considerable amount of junk in your garden. Adopting this route will permit you to maybe clear out your shed, your garage and possibly even your attic, as well as your garden waste.
Typically "green" garden waste could be the likes of: hedge clippings, sawdust, dead flowers, dirt, pruned branches, bushes, turf, logs, twigs and lawn trimmings. (Tags: Waste Removal Dunscroft, Garden Clearances Dunscroft, Garden Clearance Dunscroft).
