Finding a Gardener in Gilmorton: If you cannot spare the time to tackle your tired and dreary garden, you should not be reluctant to bring in some outside help to knock it back into shape. Should you hire a professional Gilmorton gardener or the "guy down the road" who does gardens cheap? Although there is no guarantee that a professional gardener will have any recognised horticultural qualifications, he/she will almost certainly have a great deal more gardening knowledge than that "chap down the road" is going to have. This is a choice that you alone will have to make.
Your garden is precious and you don't want it ruined by somebody who doesn't know how to appreciate it. Therefore, your goal must be to locate a gardener in Gilmorton who does a thorough job and can be depended upon. This is particularly crucial when your garden contains shrubs and trees which require special attention. Never compromise, get yourself a decent Gilmorton gardener.
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. Typical jobs that Gilmorton people need doing in their gardens include: weeding, general tidying, lawn mowing and hedge trimming. Most Gilmorton gardeners will also take on jobs like repairing fences, cleaning driveways, laying patios and waste clearance.
Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "guy down the street" may be happy to charge £10 to £15 an hour, a figure of £20 per hour is more usual for professionals. You may find that your gardener will not be prepared to put in just an hours work. At least two to three hours work is often the minimum that gardeners will wish to put in each time. Don't forget, they have to get to and from your location, they have to unload and load their van and they may have to dispose of your waste which could mean a trip to the local tip.
If a gardener asks for payment up front you should be very wary, as this is not normal practice. Large projects like garden fencing would be an exception to this rule, when a deposit for materials will be requested. Ensure you have some cash to hand on gardening day because most gardeners prefer this kind of payment when they have finished. No matter what form of payment you agree on, be sure to get a receipt so there are no arguments later on.
Be transparent about your requirements before any work begins, give the gardener a rota of tasks that you would like to be done. It isn't always easy for you to know which plants will grow best in your garden, the advice of your gardener will be invaluable. Check that your gardener will remove any waste such as lawn trimmings and branches, some do not. A big pile of waste that you can't get rid of is not something that you want left in your garden.
Gardeners are used to providing their own refreshments, but this shouldn't stop you from offering them a cup of tea or even a cold drink on a hot summer's day. Acts of kindness such as this will make your gardener feel appreciated and he or she will work all the harder for it. Don't be afraid to wander out and have a chat with your gardener when circumstances permit, this will help build a friendly connection with the gardener and encourage a sharing of 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.
