Finding a Gardener in Hoghton: Nobody likes to see their garden looking a little the worse for wear, so fetching in some outside help is always a possibility if you can't find the time to spare. You could ask the "guy down the road" who does a bit of gardening or you could call on a professional Hoghton gardener. Whilst formal qualifications are not a requirement for gardeners, a professional is likely to have a wider range of knowledge than that "guy down the road" and will have a reputation to uphold.
You need your cherished garden to be given a degree of respect by whoever is looking after it. Thus, your primary goal ought to be to find a gardener in the Hoghton district who is known for doing a good job and is regarded as being dependable. Even if in your trees and plants are pretty ordinary they still need to be handled with care and dedication. Don't allow a cowboy to ruin your garden, hire a decent one at the outset.
Gardens are all about routine maintenance, with jobs to be done fortnightly or monthly, even with smaller gardens. Of course such jobs will be more regular during the spring and summer months. Typical jobs that Hoghton people need doing in their gardens include: weeding, general tidying, grass cutting and hedge pruning. It isn't unusual for professional Hoghton gardeners to help you out with waste removal, driveway cleaning, patio installation and repairing fences.
Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "guy down the street" may be happy to charge £10 to £15 an hour, a figure of £20 per hour is more usual for professionals. It might be the case that your chosen gardener will need more than an hour to whip your garden into shape. The majority will generally prefer to spend 2 to 3 hours on each visit. Travel to and away from your home, bringing in and taking away mowers and tools, and the responsible disposal of your waste all have to be factored in.
You should be suspicious of any gardener who demands payment in advance. An exception can be made when a big project like decking installation is involved, and lots of materials have to be purchased. It isn't uncommon for a gardener to ask to be paid in cash, though only after the gardening work is completed to your satisfaction. Once you have paid your gardener get a receipt, so there are no disputes about unpaid bills.
Right from the start and before any work commences, ensure your gardener has a clear understanding of exactly what needs doing. In order for you to get the most out of your gardener, you should always be willing to ask for advice and help. Grass cuttings and hedge clippings can be a pain to get rid of, so make certain that your gardener includes the disposal of these as part of the service. Garden waste is not the easiest stuff to get rid of, so make sure they take it away.
If you are at home while the gardening is being done, keep your gardener supplied with drinks. Treating your gardener well could easily result in you getting some extra work done at no additional charge. 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. Don't stand there all day twittering on however, which only results in a frustrated gardener and an incomplete garden.
