Finding a Gardener in Newton-with-Scales: You shouldn't be afraid to ask for some assistance if your garden in Newton-with-Scales is in a bit of a mess and you don't really have the time to do it yourself. Now, you should be looking for the "right" kind of help in the shape of a professional gardener rather than the "guy down the street" who puts his hand to anything. The chances are that "bloke down the road" will not have much gardening knowledge, while the professional garder will probably have horticultural qualifications.
You certainly want a gardener who will treat your garden with respect and not cause it any harm or damage. This means that finding a local Newton-with-Scales gardener who does a good job and can be trusted should be your aim. Trees and shrubs may require expert management, meaning this is more important than ever. Hire a professional gardener and never settle for second best.
All gardens, whether large or small need regular upkeep and maintenance with lots of jobs to be done. The warmth of spring and summer increases the frequency with which these jobs need to be done. The most common jobs that people with gardens need doing in Newton-with-Scales are hedge cutting, mowing lawns, weeding and general cleaning. The majority of Newton-with-Scales gardeners will also be more than happy to deal with bigger tasks like driveway cleaning, decking installation, fence repairs and waste clearance.
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. Gardening takes time and one hour will not be enough for most gardeners to make much progress on your garden. It is often not worth their while to do much less than two hours gardening at a time. 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 would not be normal for a genuine Newton-with-Scales gardener to ask for payment in advance, so be wary if this happens to you. Ensure you have some cash to hand on gardening day because most gardeners prefer this kind of payment when they have finished. Agree on an acceptable form of payment before work starts and always get a receipt once the bill has been paid.
Giving a clear understanding of just what needs doing before work begins, will better help your gardener meet your expectations. The layout of your garden is something any decent gardener will be able to help you with, they will know which plants perform best where, don't be scared to ask for guidance. Verify that any garden waste resulting from the work will be taken away, not all gardeners will do this.
Working in the garden can get cold in winter and hot in summer, so spare a thought for your gardener and keep him/her supplied with a drink. Small things like this will help make the gardener happy in his/her work and a contented gardener may work harder on your behalf. Having regular discussions with your gardener helps you to keep abreast of the latest ideas, and also develop a friendly relationship. This doesn't mean you should stay there chattering all day though, you will be simply delaying their progress.
