Finding a Gardener in Rye: Even though you may enjoy doing the gardening you can sometimes get so behind that it becomes overgrown and a bit of a mess. This might be the right time to bring in someone else to help you. Now you could call in a proper Rye gardener or you could try the "geezer down the road". Whilst formal qualifications are not a requirement for gardeners, a professional is likely to have a wider range of knowledge than that "geezer down the road" and will have a reputation to uphold. At the end of the day you will have to choose.
Everyone likes their garden to be looked after properly and by a gardener who knows his/her stuff. So, be certain to locate a gardener in Rye who you know you can trust. This is even more important if you have plants or trees in your garden which need specialist care. Don't settle for second best, get a professional gardener.
All gardens, whether large or small need regular upkeep and maintenance with lots of jobs to be done. It goes without saying that regular garden maintenance is needed more frequently during the spring and summer months with a decline in the winter. The more commonly required jobs that need doing in Rye gardens are general tidying, hedge pruning, lawn mowing and weeding. Other jobs that professional gardeners will usually handle include: waste removal, fence repairs, decking installation and cleaning driveways.
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. It is unlikely that any gardener will be able to achieve very much in just one hour. To make it worthwhile and to make an impression, gardeners normally like to put in two to three hours at a time. 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.
It would not be normal for a genuine Rye gardener to ask for payment in advance, so be wary if this happens to you. Once the work is completed, it's not unusual for the gardener to ask for payment in cash rather than a cheque. To avoid the possibility of disputes in the future always ask your gardener for a receipt.
Giving a clear understanding of just what needs doing before work begins, will better help your gardener meet your expectations. In order for you to get the most out of your gardener, you should always be willing to ask for advice and help. Ensure that the gardener will take away lawn cuttings, weeds and twigs afterwards, not all do this. Garden waste is not the easiest stuff to get rid of, so make sure they take it away.
Though usually a gardener will bring along a flask or bottle of water, it is nice to offer him/her a cup of tea while working hard on your garden. A gardener will always be appreciative of such kindness and will work even harder to show this gratitude. By having a quick chat with your gardener every once in a while, you can pick up some tips while also building a friendly rapport. Most gardeners will not however want you standing over them all day nattering.
Rye Garden Design
Where total garden re-designs are concerned it is a case of "suck it and see". For many Rye gardeners the routine tasks are their bread and butter and they prefer to stick to what they know best. A brief discussion about this aspect of gardening should soon establish if your gardener is willing to take it on. It could be that in the end you need to contact an expert.
Tree Surgery Rye
With a reasonable knowledge of trees and plants, many gardeners in Rye will be glad to do some basic tree surgery tasks from time to time. Whilst for any major work it is advisable to use the specialist services of a certified tree surgeon, for incidental clipping and pruning, your local Rye gardener should have all the vital skills.
Larger trees can rapidly become overgrown and cause problems for your house and any outbuildings. The reality is that foundations, patios, driveways and sewage pipes can be irreparably damaged by tree roots, so keeping a keen eye on any trees that are growing on your land is very important. If you have suspicions that these or some other issues are being caused by trees on your property in Rye, speak to your gardener first for advice.
Garden Clearance Rye
You'll discover that most Rye gardeners will be able to do a certain amount of garden clearance, providing that there's only "green" waste and there is not too much involved. A limited number of gardeners in Rye will even hold a "Waste Carrier Licence", which will enable them to take different forms and larger amounts of waste. If you've got access to a council garden waste bin (you usually pay extra for this), you may be able to get rid of most of it gradually, if the volumes of waste are only small.
If your garden in Rye is stacked up with all kinds of garbage, and not merely "green" waste, you will possibly need to call a certified Rye garden clearance specialist, who will be familiar with dealing with and recycling such waste materials. There are other possibilities that you could think about if you have a substantial quantity of junk in your garden, hiring a mini-skip may be something that you could look into. Together with your garden waste, this will perhaps also enable you to clear out your garage, your shed and even your loft, if they're full of clutter too.
Essentially hedge clippings, plants, dirt, twigs, shrubs, logs, turf, sawdust, lawn trimmings and tree branches, will be regarded as "green" waste.
