Finding a Gardener in Irvine: 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. Should you hire a professional Irvine gardener or the "chap down the street" who does gardens cheap? 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 street" and will have a reputation to uphold. If you don't know who to choose, keep reading.
You want your prized garden to be treated with a certain level of respect by somebody who knows precisely what they're up to. So take care to track down a local Irvine gardener who can be trusted to do a decent job. This will be even more critical for those of you with trees and shrubs in your garden. Get yourself a good gardener, don't just settle for any old one.
The thing about gardening is that there are always jobs that need doing routinely, even on small gardens. Such routine jobs will need attention more frequently at certain times of the year, in particular spring and summer. Typical jobs that Irvine people need doing in their gardens include: general cleaning, lawn mowing, trimming hedges and weeding. Most Irvine gardeners will also take on jobs like cleaning driveways, decking installation, waste clearance and garden fencing.
Who you hire may be dependent on your budget and whilst that "fella down the street" might only charge you £10 to £15 per hour, a seasoned professional is going to set you back nearer to £20 for an hours gardening. It might be the case that your chosen gardener will need more than an hour to whip your garden into shape. In order for them to do all the neccessary work they may need to put in at least two or three hours. You must take into account travelling time, loading and unloading equipment and visits to the tip with your waste.
Be wary of "gardeners" who ask for payment in advance, no genuine Irvine gardener would do this. However this could legitimately happen with bigger jobs like garden fencing where money for materials is required. 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. Remember to get a receipt whether you pay the gardener by card, cash or cheque, this negates later disputes.
At the outset explain to your gardener what your exact requirements are, a job list is also helpful in setting out your priorities. Ask your gardener about your specific garden conditions and get advice about the best plants to grow to get the perfect results. Check that your gardener will remove any waste such as lawn trimmings and branches, some do not. It is generally better for them to take it rather than cluttering up your garden.
If you are at home while the gardening is being done, keep your gardener supplied with drinks. This is always appreciated by gardeners and they will repay you by doing an extra fine job. Building a friendly relationship with your gardener is always a good idea, it enables you to soak up a little of their knowledge and ideas. 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.
