Finding a Gardener in Northwold: 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. It's often easy to just bring in the "bloke down the street" who does odd jobs and gardening on the side, but think carefully, would a proper gardener be a better choice? It will depend on exactly what you need doing, if it is just mowing your lawn then that "fellow down the street" may be good enough, for more complex tasks, a professional will be more knowledgeable.
You certainly don't want your cherished garden to be in any way mistreated by an ignorant or uninformed "gardener" who is just in it for a buck. So, your main objective must be to find a trustworthy Northwold gardener who has a reputation for doing an excellent job. Even if your garden has only run of the mill plants you will want them looked after correctly. Avoid settling for any old chancer, find yourself a decent gardener.
No matter what size your garden is there will always be jobs that require attention as part of a routine. It is essential to get these jobs done even more frequently when spring and then summer arrives. In general hedge trimming, general cleaning, weeding and grass cutting are the common jobs that people in Northwold need doing in their gardens. Many gardeners will also be happy to take care of jobs like patio installation, waste clearance, repairing fences and driveway cleaning
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. The average gardener in Northwold will not be satisfied with doing your garden in one hour sessions. You might find that your gardener will not be interested in visits of less than two hours. 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.
Be cautious of anyone who demands payment for gardening services in advance. Having said that, a deposit for materials may be required for bigger projects like hard landscaping. 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. Having proof of payment is essential to avoid quarrels about unpaid bills, so make sure you get a receipt.
Be clear what your requirements are before the gardener begins work, have a list of jobs that need doing. 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. Getting rid of your lawn trimmings and hedge clippings won't always be part of the service so ensure that in your case it is. Unless you need it for your compost heap in which case you might want to keep it.
Gardeners are used to providing their own refreshments, but this shouldn't stop you from offering them a cup of tea or even a cold drink on a hot summer's day. Small things like this will help make the gardener happy in his/her work and a contented gardener may work harder on your behalf. Don't be afraid to wander out and have a chat with your gardener when circumstances permit, this will help build a friendly connection with the gardener and encourage a sharing of 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.
