Finding a Gardener in Hayton: When your Hayton garden starts looking rather droopy and under the weather, it is either time to get your gardening togs on or time to call in some expert help. Now, you should be looking for the "right" kind of help in the shape of a professional gardener rather than the "geezer down the street" who puts his hand to anything. While a proper gardener may not have any qualifications he or she will know a bit more than that "guy down the road". Hopefully, reading this article will help you in your decision.
It should certainly go without saying that any gardener you hire should be informed enough to care for your garden and the contents within it. Make sure you locate a dependable Hayton gardener who'll do a real good job. It is important that your plants and trees are looked after correctly, even if they are mostly run of the mill. Avoid settling for any old chancer, find yourself a decent gardener.
There is a seemingly endless list of jobs to be done in the garden, even if it is relatively small. You will need to book in more regular visits by your gardener in the spring and summer as these jobs pile up. The more commonplace place tasks that need doing in Hayton gardens are likely to be mowing lawns, general cleaning, weeding and hedge cutting. Additional tasks like decking installation, fence repairs, cleaning driveways and waste removal will also be within the capabilities of most experienced gardeners.
Good gardeners don't come cheap, a professional gardener is likely to charge you £20 per hour or more, while that "bloke down the street" might do it for £10 to £12 per hour. One hours work is not enough to make much impression on your garden, so you should reckon on them needing to spend more time than this. For it to be worth their while, gardeners generally favour doing 2 or 3 hours at a stretch. You must take into account travelling time, loading and unloading equipment and visits to the tip with your waste.
It would not be normal for a genuine Hayton gardener to ask for payment in advance, so be wary if this happens to you. An exception can be made when a big project like decking installation is involved, and lots of materials have to be purchased. Once the work is completed, it's not unusual for the gardener to ask for payment in cash rather than a cheque. To avoid any arguments later on, make sure you get a receipt no matter what kind of payment you agree on.
Prior to work commencing give the gardener a clear picture of what you're expecting to be done. Ask your gardener about your specific garden conditions and get advice about the best plants to grow to get the perfect results. Verify that any garden waste resulting from the work will be taken away, not all gardeners will do this. Give preference to gardeners who agree to take away all the garden waste.
Though usually a gardener will bring along a flask or bottle of water, it is nice to offer him/her a cup of tea while working hard on your garden. A gardener will always be appreciative of such kindness and will work even harder to show this gratitude. It's important that you and your gardener have a friendly relationship with each other. Pop into the garden for regular chats to discuss gardening ideas and plans. This does not mean you should pester them with constant wittering which will simply hinter them and slow down the work rate.
