Finding a Gardener in Fenstanton: 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. So, you could contact the "chap down the road" who somebody told you about or alternatively get in touch with a professional Fenstanton gardener who will likely do a better job. Though now and again you will find that "fellow down the road" has some reasonable gardening knowledge, a professional gardener in Fenstanton will generally be more qualified in horticultural matters.
You certainly want a gardener who will treat your garden with respect and not cause it any harm or damage. Always be certain to get hold of a local Fenstanton gardener who can be counted on. If you have a garden containing certain trees and shrubs, the importance of this is even more apparent. Find yourself a decent Fenstanton gardener, not just any bloke who knocks on your door.
The thing about gardening is that there are always jobs that need doing routinely, even on small gardens. As you can imagine the need for this regular maintenance is more necessary in spring and summer. The list of the most common gardening jobs will come as no surprise and includes the likes of weeding, trimming hedges, general cleaning and grass cutting. Other jobs that professional gardeners will usually handle include: patio installation, cleaning driveways, repairing fences and waste clearance.
Gardeners rates vary, but professionals will probably set you back around £20 per hour, with that "fellow down the road" accepting perhaps £10 or £12 for the same time period. It is unlikely that any gardener will be able to achieve very much in just one hour. For it to be worth their while, gardeners generally favour doing 2 or 3 hours at a stretch. If you think that this is just to stretch the job out, think again. They have to travel to and from your home, they have to unload mowers and garden tools, and they will probably have to load your waste onto their trailer and take it to a nearby rubbish tip.
It would not be normal for a genuine Fenstanton gardener to ask for payment in advance, so be wary if this happens to you. Having said that, a deposit for materials may be required for bigger projects like hard landscaping. Once the work is completed, it's not unusual for the gardener to ask for payment in cash rather than a cheque. 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. Make the most of having a specialist on hand and follow their guidance with regards to your choice of plants and shrubs. Removing and disposing of lawn and hedge clippings isn't always part of the service so make sure that your gardener will do this for you. This garden waste can build up and at some point you are going to need to get rid of it.
It pays to be thoughtful and supplying your gardener with a drink or two will help his/her day along. Gardeners are appreciative of gestures like this and will no doubt reward you by doing the best possible job. 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. Most gardeners will not however want you standing over them all day nattering.
