Finding a Gardener in Read: 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. Though there are a number of people in Read offering gardening services, not all are necessarily suitable to be let loose on your prized garden. Whilst a professional gardener might not necessarily have qualifications he/she will likely know considerably more than that "fellow down the street". The final decision is of course yours.
Your beloved garden deserves to be treated with respect by someone who has pride in their work and the knowledge to do it properly. Therefore you should take your time in finding a gardener in the Read area who can be trusted. With gardens containing bushes, plants and trees requiring expert attention, getting the right gardener is even more critical. Don't make do with any old rubbish, track down a proper gardener.
The routine jobs which need doing in the garden are likely to be much the same regardless whether your garden is small or big. The frequency of visits by your gardener will increase throughout the spring and summer and may not be necessary at all in winter. Typically grass cutting, general tidying, weeding and hedge trimming are the more common jobs that folk with gardens in Read need done. Bigger tasks such as waste removal, patio installation, cleaning driveways and garden fencing can also be handled by the majority of gardeners.
Decent gardeners do not come cheap, the "guy down the road" might do your gardening for £10 or £12 an hour, but a professional will probably charge nearer to £20 per hour. One hour in your garden is not very much and the average gardener will need to spend more time than that to get much done. Some gardeners may even insist on a minimum slot of two or three hours. Bear in mind the fact that they have travelling time to and from your home, and they may need to visit the local dump to dispose or your garden waste.
Trustworthy Read gardeners will never ask for money in advance, so be distrustful of anybody who does. "Cash is king" as they say, and most gardeners prefer this type of payment, but only once the work is complete of course. Always insist on a receipt whether you pay by cheque, cash or card, proof of payment is important in case of any future arguments.
Make sure your gardener is clear about your requirements, give him/her a list of jobs before they begin. Ask your gardener about your specific garden conditions and get advice about the best plants to grow to get the perfect results. Not all gardeners like to take away the waste and lawn clippings, so check that yours does. You don't want your garden cluttered with garden waste that is difficult to 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. 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 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. But don't hold them up with incessant chatter, this will only hinder them and may result in inferior or incomplete work.
Garden Clearance Read
Whilst some gardeners will be able to do a limited amount of garden clearance in Read, a lot of them will not hold a "Waste Carrier Licence", and will therefore be constrained in the quantity of waste they can remove. If only relatively small amounts of waste are involved it might be possible to get rid of the majority of it by making use of your local council green waste bin (if you've got one), otherwise you will need some specialist help.
You'll probably need to call a licenced garden clearance expert, if like a lot of people in Read, you've got a garden which is stacked up with all manner of junk, and not merely "green" waste. There are other possibilities you could consider if you have a large quantity of rubbish in your garden, renting a mini-skip might be an alternative that you could look at. This would enable you to get rid of not just garden waste, but perhaps also clear out your shed, your garage and maybe even you attic.
Essentially rocks, pruned branches, turf, twigs, lawn trimmings, plants, logs, hedge clippings, shrubs and soil, will be viewed as "green" waste.
