Finding a Gardener in Great Milton: If your garden is looking overgrown and untidy you should think about calling in some help if you don't have the inclination or time to tackle it on your own. Now, you might be tempted to bring in the "bloke down the street" who you have heard does some gardening, or more sensibly contact a proper Great Milton gardener. The thing is that the "fellow down the street" will know how to trim your hedge and mow your lawn, but probably not much else, whilst a professional will have more in depth knowledge.
You want your garden to be treated with respect by someone who knows exactly what they are doing. Always be certain to get hold of a local Great Milton gardener who can be counted on. If you have a garden containing certain trees and shrubs, the importance of this is even more apparent. Don't settle for second best, get a professional gardener.
Gardens are all about routine maintenance, with jobs to be done fortnightly or monthly, even with smaller gardens. During spring and summer such gardening jobs need attending to more frequently. Commonly general tidying, grass cutting, trimming hedges and weeding are the gardening tasks that people in Great Milton need done. Most decent gardeners in Great Milton will tackle other jobs such as driveway cleaning, garden fencing, waste removal and patio installation.
Don't expect to get a decent gardener for peanuts, while that "fellow down the street" might only ask for £10 to £12 per hour, you're unlikely to get a professional for much less than £20 an hour. The average gardener in Great Milton will not be satisfied with doing your garden in one hour sessions. For it to be worth their while, gardeners generally favour doing 2 or 3 hours at a stretch. This is to allow for travel, unloading tools and waste disposal.
Asking for money up front is not normal for gardeners (unlike builders), so be extra careful if they do. Gardeners will often prefer to be paid in cash, although only once the work is finished. Having proof of payment is essential to avoid quarrels about unpaid bills, so make sure you get a receipt.
Don't just leave them to get on with it, make sure your explain your exact requirements before they start. In order for you to get the most out of your gardener, you should always be willing to ask for advice and help. Establish that all of the weeds, lawn trimmings and resulting waste will be removed, they don't all offer this service. You want to avoid being left with large quantities of garden waste that you cannot get shot of.
It doesn't hurt to offer your gardener a drink during their toils, after all gardening is thirsty work. These acts of kindness can go a long way and may even result in a better quality of job. Wander out and have a chat with your gardener whenever the situation allows, this helps to develop a friendly connection and gives you the chance to share ideas. Constant interruptions should however be avoided.
