Finding a Gardener in Osbaldwick: 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. When you take the plunge and do this, be careful who you choose. Do you call the "fellow down the street" or an established local Osbaldwick gardener? Although there is no guarantee that a professional gardener will have any recognised horticultural qualifications, he/she will almost certainly have a great deal more gardening knowledge than that "chap down the road" is going to have.
You do not want your precious garden to be spoilt by someone who doesn't have to knowledge to look after it properly. So take care to track down a local Osbaldwick gardener who can be trusted to do a decent job. When you have a garden containing trees and shrubs needing expert care, this is even more important. Hire a professional gardener and never settle for second best.
The thing with gardens is that the jobs that need doing are routine, the same things need doing perhaps weekly, fortnightly or monthly. In spring and summer you should organise more frequent gardener visits as the jobs that need doing increase. Typically general tidying, weeding, lawn mowing and hedge trimming are the more common jobs that folk with gardens in Osbaldwick need done. Jobs like garden fencing, cleaning driveways, waste clearance and decking installation are also something most Osbaldwick gardeners will tackle.
Gardeners rates vary, but professionals will probably set you back around £20 per hour, with that "fella down the street" accepting perhaps £10 or £12 for the same time period. Don't expect miracles, especially on the first session, and count on it taking more than a single hour for your gardener to make much difference to the look of your garden. You might find that your gardener will not be interested in visits of less than two hours. Travel to and away from your home, bringing in and taking away mowers and tools, and the responsible disposal of your waste all have to be factored in.
Trustworthy Osbaldwick gardeners will never ask for money in advance, so be distrustful of anybody who does. Exceptions can be made when large jobs like fencing or decking are involved, some money up front might then be appropriate. Many Osbaldwick gardeners favour payment in cash, very few will take cards, they will only ask after you have approved their work. Don't forget to ask for a receipt irrespective of if you pay by card, cash or cheque, having proof of payment prevents later quarrels.
Make out a list of gardening jobs that require attention and be transparent about your expectations before the work starts. Make the most of having a specialist on hand and follow their guidance with regards to your choice of plants and shrubs. Check that your gardener will remove any waste such as lawn trimmings and branches, some do not. You don't want to get left with a big pile of waste that you can't get rid of.
Spare a thought for your gardener toiling away on your property with no facilities at hand. Offer them the use of your toilet and perhaps provide a drink. This type of kindness is always welcome and your gardener may show his/her gratitude by doing a great job on your garden. Building a friendly relationship with your gardener is always a good idea, it enables you to soak up a little of their knowledge and ideas. Do not take this to the extreme however, and impede their work with constant babbling, they may become frustrated and not do a proper job.
Garden Clearance Osbaldwick
If you let "green" waste and general trash to accumulate in your garden, the time will arrive when you will need to call in a garden clearance specialist. Some Osbaldwick gardeners will be willing to do this, but unless they have a "Waste Carriers Licence", they'll be restricted on the amount of waste they can remove. If you've got access to a local council green waste bin (you generally pay extra for these), you may be able to get rid of most of it bit by bit, if the amounts of waste are only relatively small.
You will most likely need to contact a certified garden clearance expert, if like many people in Osbaldwick, you've got a garden that is piled up with all kinds of rubbish, and not just "green" waste. If you have a largish amount of junk in your garden you might think about hiring a mini-skip. Adopting this route will make it possible for you to maybe clear out your shed, your garage and perhaps even your loft, along with your garden waste.
In general "green" garden waste will be the likes of: hedge clippings, shrubs, turf, topsoil, lawn trimmings, tree branches, twigs, logs, dead plants and roots. (Tags: Garden Clearance Osbaldwick, "Green" Waste Removal Osbaldwick, Garden Clearances Osbaldwick).
