Finding a Gardener in Potters Bar: If you wake up one day and realise just how untidy and overgrown your garden has become, it might be appropriate to call in somebody to help you out, unless you can find the time in your busy life to tackle it yourself. When you take the plunge and do this, be careful who you choose. Do you call the "bloke down the street" or an established local Potters Bar gardener? Though quite often you will find that a professional gardener in Potters Bar doesn't hold any horticultural qualifications, he or she will probably be considerably more knowledgeable than your average "fella down the road".
Your garden is precious and you don't want it ruined by somebody who doesn't know how to appreciate it. Make sure you locate a dependable Potters Bar gardener who'll do a real good job. You will come to realise that this is even more important when you've got trees and shrubs needing a higher level of care. Don't make do with any Tom, Dick or Harry, get yourself a decent gardener.
Even if your garden is relatively small, there are a handful of jobs which need attending to on a routine basis. These jobs will need doing more regularly in the spring and summer and perhaps not at all in the winter. Typically hedge cutting, weeding, lawn mowing and general cleaning are the more common jobs that folk with gardens in Potters Bar need done. Most professional Potters Bar gardeners will also help with repairing fences, patio installation, waste clearance and cleaning driveways.
While that "chap down the road" might quote you ten to fifteen pounds an hour to "do" your garden, an experienced gardener will come at a considerably higher price (£20 per hour maybe). 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. It's not uncommon for a gardener to request at least two hour minimum visit times. 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.
Respectable gardeners in Potters Bar would not dream of asking for payment up front for their services, therefore you should be very wary of anyone who makes this request. 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. Be certain to get a receipt from your gardener whether you pay him/her by card, cash or cheque.
Be clear what your requirements are before the gardener begins work, have a list of jobs that need doing. 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.
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. Such thoughfulness will be appreciated and should ensure that your gardener does the best job possible. Having a friendly rapport with your gardener is also important, so chat with them on a regular basis, discuss plans and bounce ideas off each other. Don't stand there all day twittering on however, which only results in a frustrated gardener and an incomplete garden.
