Finding a Gardener in Great Waldingfield: Even though you may enjoy doing the gardening you can sometimes get so behind that it becomes overgrown and a bit of a mess. This might be the right time to bring in someone else to help you. It's often easy to just bring in the "guy down the street" who does odd jobs and gardening on the side, but think carefully, would a proper gardener be a better choice? While a proper gardener may not have any qualifications he or she will know a bit more than that "guy down the road". That of course is a decision that you will have to make.
Gardeners who know their stuff will have respect for your garden and treat it much as they would their own. Make sure you locate a dependable Great Waldingfield gardener who'll do a real good job. When you have a garden containing trees and shrubs needing expert care, this is even more important. Don't allow a cowboy to ruin your garden, hire a decent one at the outset.
The thing with gardens is that the jobs that need doing are routine, the same things need doing perhaps weekly, fortnightly or monthly. You will need to book in more regular visits by your gardener in the spring and summer as these jobs pile up. As a rule hedge pruning, mowing lawns, general cleaning and weeding are the typical gardening jobs that need doing on a regular basis. Most decent gardeners in Great Waldingfield will tackle other jobs such as patio installation, cleaning driveways, repairing fences and waste clearance.
Decent gardeners will come at a premium, so don't expect them to work for peanuts. Charges generally start at approximately twenty pounds per hour. One hour in your garden is not very much and the average gardener will need to spend more time than that to get much done. In order for them to do all the neccessary work they may need to put in at least two or three hours. The reason for this is that they have to allow time for travel, waste disposal and getting tools on and off their truck.
Be extremely suspicious of any Great Waldingfield gardener who requests money up front before doing the job. An exception can be made when a big project like garden fencing is involved, and lots of materials have to be purchased. 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. Once you have paid your gardener get a receipt, so there are no disputes about unpaid bills.
Before work starts prepare a plan of expected tasks with the gardener, this will help them to live up to your expectations. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. Verify that any garden waste resulting from the work will be taken away, not all gardeners will do this. Except when you have a use for it, such as building a compost heap with your lawn trimmings.
Working in the garden can get cold in winter and hot in summer, so spare a thought for your gardener and keep him/her supplied with a drink. This type of kindness is always welcome and your gardener may show his/her gratitude by doing a great job on your garden. 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. 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.
