Finding a Gardener in Longtown: Sorting out a dreary and overgrown garden is not everyone's cup of tea, so if you find yourself in this situation you should not be afraid to ask for some outside assistance. Should you hire a professional Longtown gardener or the "fella down the road" who does gardens cheap? The problem is that "chap down the street" will probably know very little about gardening, whereas a professional will have a wide spectrum of knowledge.
It is not too much to ask that any gardener treats your garden, plants and contents with a degree of respect. This means that finding a local Longtown gardener who does a good job and can be trusted should be your aim. When you've got shrubs and trees requiring specialist care, this becomes even more vital. Hire a professional gardener and never settle for second best.
Routine maintenance is the key with all gardens, whether small or large, with a seemingly endless list of jobs to do. With the arrival of spring the frequency with which such tasks need attending to increases. In general hedge trimming, mowing lawns, general cleaning and weeding are the common jobs that people in Longtown need doing in their gardens. More involved tasks might include: decking installation, cleaning driveways, waste clearance and repairing fences.
Regular garden maintenance can cost quite a bit of money because an experienced gardener will probably charge you something like twenty pounds per hour worked. You may find that your gardener will not be prepared to put in just an hours work. Generally gardeners would prefer to spend a minimum of 2 - 3 hours to make it worthwhile. If you think that this is just to stretch the job out, think again. They have to travel to and from your home, they have to unload mowers and garden tools, and they will probably have to load your waste onto their trailer and take it to a nearby rubbish tip.
It would not be normal for a genuine Longtown gardener to ask for payment in advance, so be wary if this happens to you. "Cash is king" as they say, and most gardeners prefer this type of payment, but only once the work is complete of course. Remember to get a receipt whether you pay the gardener by cheque, cash or card, this negates later disputes.
Don't just leave them to get on with it, make sure your explain your exact requirements before they start. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. Ensure that the gardener will take away lawn cuttings, weeds and twigs afterwards, not all do this. Garden waste can be tricky to get rid of.
Offer your gardener a hot or cold drink while they are at work and the use of a toilet is also helpful. These acts of kindness can go a long way and may even result in a better quality of job. In order to benefit from his/her knowledge and to keep a friendly rapport going, pop out for a chat now and again. This is not to say you should stand there all day gabbing, this will merely hinder your gardener and stop him/her from doing their job.
