Finding a Gardener in Great Plumstead: You shouldn't be afraid to ask for some assistance if your garden in Great Plumstead is in a bit of a mess and you don't really have the time to do it yourself. So, you could contact the "fella down the street" who somebody told you about or alternatively get in touch with a professional Great Plumstead gardener who will likely do a better job. It is the job of any self-respecting gardener in Great Plumstead to have the necessary knowledge to look after your garden, while that "guy down the road" is just in it for a few bob on the side. Ultimately, you will have to choose what is best for your garden.
You need your cherished garden to be given a degree of respect by whoever is looking after it. Therefore you should take your time in finding a gardener in the Great Plumstead area who can be trusted. This is especially important if you have trees and shrubs, which need proper care and attention. Find yourself a decent Great Plumstead gardener, not just any chap who knocks on your door.
Even if your garden is relatively small, there are a handful of jobs which need attending to on a routine basis. These routine jobs have to be done more frequently throughout the spring and summertime. Typical jobs that folk with gardens in Great Plumstead require are grass cutting, weeding, general cleaning and hedge pruning. Many gardeners will also be happy to take care of jobs like waste removal, patio installation, cleaning driveways and fence repairs
An hourly rate of around £20 is what you should expect to pay for a decent gardener. Don't expect miracles, especially on the first session, and count on it taking more than a single hour for your gardener to make much difference to the look of your garden. You might find that your gardener will not be interested in visits of less than two hours. When you take into consideration travelling time, getting equipment on and off the van, and going to the local tip with your garden waste, this is understandable.
You should be suspicious of any gardener who demands payment in advance. However, you might expect to pay a deposit for large jobs such as patio laying. "Cash is king" as they say, and most gardeners prefer this type of payment, but only once the work is complete of course. Whether you pay by card, cheque or cash, insist on a receipt, this will prevent later disputes over payment.
Before work starts prepare a plan of expected tasks with the gardener, this will help them to live up to your expectations. Your gardener will be there to give you advice and guidance on any aspect of your garden, so make the most of his/her knowledge. Ensure that the gardener will take away lawn cuttings, weeds and twigs afterwards, not all do this.
Remember to keep the gardener supplied with drinks if you are around while the gardening is being done. You can expect your gardener to very much appreciate gestures like this and to repay you with increased output. 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. As with most things in life, moderation is the key. Keep chats short and to the point so that they can get on with what they are there for.
