Finding a Gardener in Meltham: 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 "guy down the road" who you have heard does some gardening, or more sensibly contact a proper Meltham gardener. Generally speaking that "fella down the road" will have very little gardening knowledge, while any self-respecting Meltham gardener be bursting with horticultural expertise.
A gardener who knows precisely what they're doing will treat your garden with the respect that it deserves. Therefore you must find a gardener in Meltham who can be depended upon to do a fine job. This is especially important if you have trees and shrubs, which need proper care and attention. Avoid settling for any old chancer, find yourself a decent gardener.
Even if you've got a small garden, there will be various tasks that require attention in a routine manner. More frequent visits will be necessary in the spring and summertime and maybe none at all during the wintertime. Among the most common jobs needing to be done in Meltham gardens are grass cutting, weeding, general cleaning and hedge trimming. Most Meltham gardeners will also take on jobs like decking installation, driveway cleaning, repairing fences and waste removal.
Gardeners rates vary, but professionals will probably set you back around £20 per hour, with that "bloke down the street" accepting perhaps £10 or £12 for the same time period. It might be the case that your chosen gardener will need more than an hour to whip your garden into shape. Many gardeners might even insist on a minimum visit time of at least two hours or so. They have to allow for other things such as disposing of your garden waste at the local rubbish tip, unloading tools and equipment, and actually getting to and from your home.
If a gardener asks for payment up front you should be very wary, as this is not normal practice. Having said that, a deposit for materials may be required for bigger projects like garden fencing. It is not unusual for gardeners to ask for payment in cash, but only after the work is done. Whether you pay by cheque, card or cash, insist on a receipt, this will prevent later disputes over payment.
Right from the start and before any work commences, ensure your gardener has a clear understanding of exactly what needs doing. Getting the full benefit of your gardeners expertise is something you should always seek to do. Check that your gardener will remove any waste such as lawn trimmings and branches, some do not.
It doesn't hurt to offer your gardener a drink during their toils, after all gardening is thirsty work. Considerations like this will always be appreciated and will often result in a better standard of work. In order to benefit from his/her knowledge and to keep a friendly rapport going, pop out for a chat now and again. Having said that, don't hold your gardener up by wittering on all day and preventing him/her from getting on with the job.
