Finding a Gardener in Hilton: 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. Should you hire a professional Hilton gardener or the "fellow down the street" who does gardens cheap? Although there is no guarantee that a professional gardener will have any recognised horticultural qualifications, he/she will almost certainly have a great deal more gardening knowledge than that "chap down the road" is going to have.
If you cherish your garden you will want a gardener with some savvy, who appreciates what you have and looks after it correctly. So, your aim should be to find a gardener in the Hilton area who can be trusted to do a good job on your garden. When you've got shrubs and trees requiring specialist care, this becomes even more vital. Don't make do with any Tom, Dick or Harry, get yourself a decent gardener.
Even if you only have a small garden, there are lots of jobs that need doing on a regular basis. It is essential to get these jobs done even more frequently when spring and then summer arrives. In general hedge pruning, general cleaning, lawn mowing and weeding are the common jobs that people in Hilton need doing in their gardens. It isn't unusual for professional Hilton gardeners to help you out with laying patios, waste removal, cleaning driveways and repairing fences.
Experienced gardeners don't come cheap and if you are being charged around £20 per hour, that is about average. Usually gardeners will not be happy doing just one hours work. It would not be that unusual for a gardener to have a minimum visit time of 2 to 3 hours. Remember, they have to travel to and from your house, and maybe also get to the tip with your rubbish.
Payment in advance is not something that gardeners usually ask for, so be cautious if your gardener requires this. An exception might be when a large job is involved such as decking or fencing when some money up front may be asked for. When the work has been completed to your satisfaction it would not be unusual for your gardener to ask for payment in cash. You don't want any arguments about payment in the future, so be sure to get a receipt.
Be clear what your requirements are before the gardener begins work, have a list of jobs that need doing. 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. Establish that all of the weeds, lawn trimmings and resulting waste will be removed, they don't all offer this service.
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. Treating your gardener well could easily result in you getting some extra work done at no additional charge. 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. Having said that, don't hold your gardener up by wittering on all day and preventing him/her from getting on with the job.
Tree Surgery Hilton
If needed, some of the better gardeners in Hilton will be quite willing to do some basic tree surgery, as the vast majority of them will have at least a basic knowledge of trees and plants. While your local Hilton gardener ought to have the appropriate skills to handle clipping and pruning, for any major work it is advisable to use the specialist services of a certified tree surgeon.
Tree damages to property and utility lines isn't at all unheard of, and this can quickly happen if trees are permitted to become overgrown. You need to keep a close eye on any trees on your land, seeing as the roots can also damage building footings, sewage lines, driveways and terraces. If you have suspicions that these or other problems are being caused by trees on your property in Hilton, have a word with your gardener first for advice.
Garden Clearance Hilton
Even though many gardeners will be able to do a certain amount of garden clearance in Hilton, most of them won't have a "Waste Carrier's Licence", and will thus be restricted in the quantity of waste they can dispose of. If only modest quantities of waste are involved it may be feasible to get rid of most of it using your local council green waste bin (if you've got one), otherwise you'll need additional help.
You'll most likely need to bring in an authorised garden clearance specialist, if like many householders in Hilton, you've got a garden which is piled up with all sorts of rubbish, and not just green waste. There are other options that you could consider if you have a substantial quantity of waste in your garden, renting a mini-skip may be something you could look into. Taking this course would allow you to perhaps have a clear out in your shed, your garage and maybe even your loft, in addition to your garden waste.
"Green" waste would generally be considered to be stuff such as: hedge clippings, weeds, sawdust, turf, logs, twigs, lawn trimmings, pruned branches, shrubs and topsoil.
