Finding a Gardener in Ipplepen: Don't get stressed out if your garden in Ipplepen is looking unkempt and you can never find the time to sort it out, there is always the option of calling in some outside help. Think carefully before you hire someone because lots of people in Ipplepen do gardening, some are professional gardeners and some just dabble. It is the job of any self-respecting gardener in Ipplepen to have the necessary knowledge to look after your garden, while that "guy down the street" is just in it for a few quid on the side.
If you cherish your garden you will want a gardener with some savvy, who appreciates what you have and looks after it correctly. Therefore, your goal must be to locate a gardener in Ipplepen who does a thorough job and can be depended upon. When you have a garden containing trees and shrubs needing expert care, this is even more important. Don't make do with any Tom, Dick or Harry, get yourself a decent gardener.
Routine maintenance is the key with all gardens, whether small or large, with a seemingly endless list of jobs to do. Such routine jobs will need attention more frequently at certain times of the year, in particular spring and summer. While the jobs that people in Ipplepen need doing in their gardens are many and varied the most common are hedge cutting, grass cutting, weeding and general tidying. It isn't unusual for professional Ipplepen gardeners to help you out with waste clearance, repairing fences, cleaning driveways and patio installation.
Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "chap 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 would be unfair to expect any gardener to whip your garden into shape in just a single hour, so count on it taking longer than this. You might find that your gardener will not be interested in visits of less than two hours. This isn't surprising when you appreciate that they have to get to and from your house, load/unload, and resposibly dispose of your waste at the local recycling centre.
If a gardener asks for payment up front you should be very wary, as this is not normal practice. An exception can be made when a big project like patio laying is involved, and lots of materials have to be purchased. "Cash is king" as they say, and most gardeners prefer this type of payment, but only once the work is complete of course. No matter what form of payment you agree on, be sure to get a receipt so there are no arguments later on.
Prior to work commencing give the gardener a clear picture of what you're expecting to be done. Don't be afraid to ask for advice, your gardener is the best person to tell you which plants are best for your garden. Taking away all the garden waste such as hedge clippings and lawn trimmings may not be included in the service, therefore you should establish whether your gardener will do this or not. Unless you want to keep it for your compost heap.
It pays to be thoughtful and supplying your gardener with a drink or two will help his/her day along. Small things like this will help make the gardener happy in his/her work and a contented gardener may work harder on your behalf. So that you can forge a friendly relationship with your gardener it is often a nice idea to pop out for a chat now and again. This also helps you to gain some additional gardening knowhow and useful tips. In doing this, don't prevent them from getting on with their work, because this will make the job take longer and cost you more money in the long run.
