Finding a Gardener in Helmdon: If your garden is in a bit of a state and you don't have the time to sort it out yourself, there is no shame in calling in some help. That help should come in the shape of a professional Helmdon gardener with a bit of experience, and not the "fellow down the road" who knocks on your door and offers to jet wash your patio. Though now and again you will find that "chap down the street" has some reasonable gardening knowledge, a professional gardener in Helmdon will generally be more qualified in horticultural matters. Perhaps this article will help you make your choice.
It is never a good idea to have somebody looking after your garden who doesn't know what they're doing. Therefore you must find a gardener in Helmdon who can be depended upon to do a fine job. Even if in your trees and plants are pretty ordinary they still need to be handled with care and dedication. You shouldn't take any chances, hire the best gardener you can afford.
There is a seemingly endless list of jobs to be done in the garden, even if it is relatively small. As you can imagine the need for this regular maintenance is more necessary in spring and summer. Typically hedge pruning, general cleaning, mowing lawns and weeding are the more common jobs that folk with gardens in Helmdon need done. There are plenty more jobs that might need doing for example decking installation, fence repairs, waste removal and cleaning driveways, most Helmdon gardeners will also be willing to tackle these.
Experienced gardeners don't come cheap and if you are being charged around £20 per hour, that is about average. You shouldn't expect too much from your gardener on his/her first visit, because gardening takes time and dependant on the amount of work that needs doing, several hours may be required. It's not uncommon for a gardener to request at least two hour minimum visit times. This is not greed or stretching the job out, but simply making allowances for travel, unloading and waste removal when necessary.
Be wary of "gardeners" who ask for payment in advance, no genuine Helmdon gardener would do this. Gardeners will often prefer to be paid in cash, although only once the work is finished. No matter what form of payment you agree on, be sure to get a receipt so there are no arguments later on.
Right from the start and before any work commences, ensure your gardener has a clear understanding of exactly what needs doing. Planning out exactly what goes where in your garden is important, the help and guidance of your gardener will help you to get it right. Getting rid of your lawn trimmings and hedge clippings won't always be part of the service so ensure that in your case it is. A big pile of waste that you can't get rid of is not something that you want left in your garden.
It is customary to offer your gardener a hot or cold drink, though many bring their own refreshments. Small things like this will help make the gardener happy in his/her work and a contented gardener may work harder on your behalf. By chatting with your gardener you can start to establish a friendly relationship, this should enable you to immerse yourself in their ideas and soak up some of their gardening knowledge. This is not to say you should stand there all day gabbing, this will merely hinder your gardener and stop him/her from doing their job.
Garden Clearance Helmdon
If you allow green waste and general junk to accumulate in your garden, a time will arise when you need to call in a garden clearance specialist. A few Helmdon gardeners will be willing to do this, but unless they hold a "Waste Carriers Licence", they will be limited in the amount of waste they can remove. If the quantities of waste are small you may be able to dispose of most of it by using your council garden waste bin (if you've got access to one).
You will possibly have to call a licenced garden clearance specialist, if like a lot of homeowners in Helmdon, you've got a garden that is piled up with all manner of trash, and not merely green waste. You could always look into renting a mini-skip if you've got a significant amount of waste in your garden. This will enable you to ditch not just garden waste, but maybe also clear out your garage, your shed and possibly even you attic.
"Green" waste would usually be thought of as stuff like: hedge clippings, topsoil, shrubs, turf, pruned branches, sawdust, lawn trimmings, dead plants, twigs and logs. (Tags: "Green" Waste Removal Helmdon, Garden Clearance Helmdon, Garden Clearances Helmdon).
