Finding a Gardener in Peterstow: Calling in some outside help to get your bedraggled garden back into shape, isn't something to be ashamed of if you never seem to have enough time to do it yourself. When you take the plunge and do this, be careful who you choose. Do you call the "chap down the road" or an established local Peterstow 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 "fella down the road" is going to have. If you are still not sure, read the rest of this article.
You want your prized garden to be treated with a certain level of respect by somebody who knows precisely what they're up to.

Get a dependable Peterstow gardener, not a "rogue trader".
Even if you've got a small garden, there will be various tasks that require attention in a routine manner. In spring and summer you should organise more frequent gardener visits as the jobs that need doing increase.

Jobs like waste removal, cleaning driveways, patio installation and repairing fences are also something most Peterstow gardeners will tackle.
Expect to shell out something like £20 per hour for hiring the expertise of a professional gardener, the "chap down the road" will be a bit cheaper. You shouldn't expect too much from your gardener on his/her first visit, because gardening takes time and dependant on the amount of work that needs doing, several hours may be required. Visits spanning 2 to 3 hours are about the average for Peterstow gardeners. This is to allow for travel, unloading tools and waste disposal.
You should be suspicious of any gardener who demands payment in advance. Gardeners will often prefer to be paid in cash, although only once the work is finished. Remember to get a receipt whether you pay the gardener by card, cash or cheque, this negates later disputes.
A list of required tasks will help your gardener to plan his/her day, clearly lay out you exact requirements at the start. Your gardener will be there to give you advice and guidance on any aspect of your garden, so make the most of his/her knowledge. Ensure that the gardener will take away lawn cuttings, weeds and twigs afterwards, not all do this. Being left with large quantities of garden waste is something that you need to avoid.
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. This is always appreciated by gardeners and they will repay you by doing an extra fine job. By chatting with your gardener you can start to establish a friendly relationship, this should enable you to immerse yourself in their ideas and soak up some of their gardening knowledge. 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.
