Finding a Gardener in Holbeach: Bringing in some outside assistance to knock a tired and bedraggled garden back into shape is something many busy people have to do these days, especially after a long and blustery winter. Now, you might be tempted to bring in the "fellow down the street" who you have heard does some gardening, or more sensibly contact a proper Holbeach gardener. Generally speaking that "fellow down the road" will have very little gardening knowledge, while any self-respecting Holbeach gardener be bursting with horticultural expertise. This is a choice that you alone will have to make.
A gardener who knows precisely what they're doing will treat your garden with the respect that it deserves. So, finding a trustworthy and reliable Holbeach gardener is something you should take care in doing. This is especially important if you have trees and shrubs, which need proper care and attention. Don't settle for less than the best.
Gardens are all about routine maintenance, with jobs to be done fortnightly or monthly, even with smaller gardens. With the arrival of spring the frequency with which such tasks need attending to increases. Typical jobs that Holbeach people need doing in their gardens include: lawn mowing, weeding, general cleaning and hedge trimming. It is likely that your gardener will also help you with waste clearance, cleaning driveways, decking installation and fence repairs.
An hourly rate of around £20 is what you should expect to pay for a decent gardener. You should anticipate your gardener needing more time than one hour is he/she is to get your garden looking good again. Certain Holbeach gardeners will want 2 or more hours work each time they visit your garden. Remember, they have to travel to and from your house, and maybe also get to the tip with your rubbish.
Trustworthy Holbeach gardeners will never ask for money in advance, so be distrustful of anybody who does. Paying a deposit for materials might be appropriate for bigger jobs like fencing or decking. 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. No matter if you pay your gardener with cheque, cash or card, ask for a receipt, you don't want any disputes or arguments about payments down the road.
Be clear about your expectations from the very beginning, prepare a list of work you need doing. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. 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. Garden waste can be tricky to get rid of.
It is customary to offer your gardener a hot or cold drink, though many bring their own refreshments. Your gardener will be grateful for such kindness. Having regular discussions with your gardener helps you to keep abreast of the latest ideas, and also develop a friendly relationship. Do not take this to the extreme however, and impede their work with constant babbling, they may become frustrated and not do a proper job.
Garden Design Holbeach
It may be the case that you do not just want your garden to be tidied, but would like a complete re-design. Some gardeners in Holbeach branch out into this area of gardening whilst other concentrate on the more routine jobs. A quick discussion should soon reveal if your gardener is comfortable dealing with garden design. Otherwise you will need to find an expert in this field.
Tree Surgery Holbeach
With a reasonable knowledge of trees and plants, some gardeners in Holbeach will be happy to do a few elementary tree surgery jobs every once in awhile. While your local Holbeach gardener should have the required skills to handle pruning and trimming, for any important work it is preferable to use the specialist services of a trained tree surgeon.
It is not unheard of for larger trees to become overgrown, causing a real danger to power lines or even your home. You should keep a close eye on any trees that are growing on your land, as the roots can also damage driveways, building foundations, patios and sewage pipes. If you are concerned that these or other issues are being triggered by trees within your property boundaries in Holbeach, have a word with your gardener first for advice.
Garden Clearance Holbeach
Whilst some gardeners will be prepared to do a certain amount of garden clearance in Holbeach, many of them won't hold a Waste Carrier's Licence, and will therefore be constrained in the quantity of waste they are able to remove. If you've got a council green waste bin (you usually pay extra for this), you might be able to dispose of the majority of it bit by bit, if the amounts of waste are only minimal.
You'll most likely need to call a registered garden clearance expert, if like many other homeowners in Holbeach, you have a garden which is piled up with all manner of trash, and not only green waste. You could also look into hiring a mini-skip if you have a substantial amount of waste in your garden. This would enable you to ditch not only garden waste, but perhaps also clear out your shed, your garage and maybe even you attic.
"Green" waste would typically be thought of as items such as: shrubs, turf, twigs, hedge clippings, plants, wood chippings, logs, lawn trimmings, soil and pruned branches.
