Finding a Gardener in Great Glen: If you wake up one day and realise just how untidy and overgrown your garden has become, it might be appropriate to call in somebody to help you out, unless you can find the time in your busy life to tackle it yourself. Think carefully before you hire someone because lots of people in Great Glen do gardening, some are professional gardeners and some just dabble. The chances are that "fella down the street" will not have much gardening knowledge, while the professional garder will probably have horticultural qualifications.
You definately need to get a gardener who knows how to treat your garden and its contents. So, your aim should be to find a gardener in the Great Glen area who can be trusted to do a good job on your garden. This is even more important if you have plants or trees in your garden which need specialist care. Find yourself a decent Great Glen gardener, not just any chap who knocks on your door.
Even if you've got a small garden, there will be various tasks that require attention in a routine manner. The warmth of spring and summer increases the frequency with which these jobs need to be done. In general hedge cutting, general cleaning, weeding and mowing lawns are the common jobs that people in Great Glen need doing in their gardens. Bigger tasks such as waste clearance, repairing fences, driveway cleaning and decking installation can also be handled by the majority of gardeners.
Getting your garden done by a professional isn't cheap and you are likely to be paying close to £20 per hour for the priviledge. It would be unfair to expect any gardener to whip your garden into shape in just a single hour, so count on it taking longer than this. It is often not worth their while to do much less than two hours gardening at a time. Getting to and from your house, unloading and re-loading tools and equipment, and transporting your garden waste to the local tip are all factors that they have to consider before taking on a gardening job.
Steer clear of gardeners who request payment in advance. Exceptions to this rule could be in respect of large projects such as garden fencing where considerable amounts of materials are needed. If your gardener asks to be paid in cash after the job is complete, this is not something to be worried about and is normal within the trade. Whether you pay by cheque, card or cash, insist on a receipt, this will prevent later disputes over payment.
At the outset explain to your gardener what your exact requirements are, a job list is also helpful in setting out your priorities. Knowing which plants are most suitable for your garden's condition isn't always easy, so ask your gardener for advice on this. Establish that all of the weeds, lawn trimmings and resulting waste will be removed, they don't all offer this service.
It is customary to offer your gardener a hot or cold drink, though many bring their own refreshments. There is no telling what advantages may be gained by you for such little acts of kindness. Pop out for a chat with your gardener from time to time so you can benefit from their ideas and keep a friendly rapport. You should not however take this to the extreme, and stand there chattering all day long, which will only hold up your gardener and make the job take longer.
