Finding a Gardener in Longside: If your garden is looking overgrown and untidy you should think about calling in some help if you don't have the inclination or time to tackle it on your own. It is generally advisable to opt for a professional Longside gardener, as opposed to the "fella down the street" who does a bit of gardening. Whilst a professional gardener might not necessarily have qualifications he/she will likely know considerably more than that "guy down the road".
You want your garden to be treated with respect by someone who knows exactly what they are doing. Therefore you must find a gardener in Longside who can be depended upon to do a fine job. Trees and shrubs may require expert management, meaning this is more important than ever. Don't allow a cowboy to ruin your garden, hire a decent one at the outset.
There is a seemingly endless list of jobs to be done in the garden, even if it is relatively small. Such jobs require even more attention during spring and summer when rain and heat generates increased growth. Typical jobs that Longside people need doing in their gardens include: mowing lawns, general tidying, weeding and trimming hedges. It is likely that your gardener will also help you with patio installation, waste clearance, garden fencing and cleaning driveways.
On the subject of price, this can vary with areas and gardeners, but charges of about twenty pounds per hour are normal and may be even higher. One hour in your garden is not very much and the average gardener will need to spend more time than that to get much done. Most will want to put in at least 2 to 3 hours at a time to make it worth their while. It is not just a case of working on your garden, they need to allow for travelling time and visits to the local rubbish tip.
It is not the norm for Longside gardeners to demand money up front, be very suspicious of anyone who does this. Payment in cash is not unusual for gardeners, though this will be requested after all work is completed and approved. Don't forget to ask for a receipt irrespective of if you pay by cheque, card or cash, having proof of payment prevents later quarrels.
A list of required tasks will help your gardener to plan his/her day, clearly lay out you exact requirements at the start. Always ask your gardener for advice, he or she will know exactly what plants are best suited to your garden conditions. It might be sensible to verify that your gardener disposes of any waste materials as part of the service, not all Longside gardeners do.
It doesn't hurt to offer your gardener a drink during their toils, after all gardening is thirsty work. This sort of kindness is always very much appreciated. Engage in some conversation with your gardener whenever you get the chance so that you can build a friendly relationship and benefit from their knowledge and ideas. It is not however a good idea to pester them constantly which will have the effect of annoying them and slowing the work down.
Garden Clearance Longside
If you allow green waste and general trash to accumulate in your garden, the time will transpire when you need a garden clearance specialist. Some Longside gardeners will be happy to do this, but unless they've got a Waste Carriers Licence, they'll be limited in the amount of waste they can take. If you've got access to a local council green waste bin (you usually pay extra for this), you might be able to get rid of the majority of it gradually, if the amounts of waste are only relatively small.
You'll possibly have to contact a licenced garden clearance expert, if like a lot of householders in Longside, you have a garden that's stacked up with all sorts of rubbish, and not only "green" waste. You could also consider renting a mini-skip if you have a significant amount of waste in your garden. Along with your garden waste, this would perhaps also permit you to have a good clear out in your garage, your shed and even your attic, if they're junked-up as well.
"Green" waste will usually be thought of as stuff such as: twigs, tree branches, shrubs, lawn trimmings, dead plants, hedge clippings, topsoil, logs, wood chippings and turf.
Longside Garden Design
The average gardener working in the Longside area might not be up to the task of completely re-designing your garden. While some gardeners in Longside will have a go at garden design they may not be the best people to help with this. Ask your gardener if he/she is comfortable with this aspect of gardening. Otherwise you'll have to search for an expert in the field of garden design.
