Finding a Gardener in Shepley: When your beloved garden in Shepley is looking somewhat tatty and overgrown you will have to decide whether to put aside a few hours to do it yourself or take the lazy option and pay someone else to do it for you. Now you could call in a proper Shepley gardener or you could try the "guy down the street". While a proper gardener may not have any qualifications he or she will know a bit more than that "guy down the road". Picking who is best for your garden is important.
You want your garden to be treated with respect by someone who knows exactly what they are doing. Therefore you should take your time in finding a gardener in the Shepley area who can be trusted. Even if in your trees and plants are pretty ordinary they still need to be handled with care and dedication. Don't put up with "rogue trader" gardeners, choose a dependable one.
Even if you've got a small garden, there will be various tasks that require attention in a routine manner. Of course such jobs will be more regular during the spring and summer months. Typical jobs that folk with gardens in Shepley require are hedge pruning, general tidying, mowing lawns and weeding. There are plenty more jobs that might need doing for example garden fencing, waste removal, patio installation and driveway cleaning, most Shepley gardeners will also be willing to tackle these.
On the subject of price, this can vary with areas and gardeners, but charges of about twenty pounds per hour are normal and may be even higher. It would be unfair to expect any gardener to whip your garden into shape in just a single hour, so count on it taking longer than this. Most gardeners will have a minimum visit time of 2 hours. You must take into account travelling time, loading and unloading equipment and visits to the tip with your waste.
Be wary of "gardeners" who ask for payment in advance, no genuine Shepley gardener would do this. Payment of some money up front could be appropriate when bigger jobs are being done like patio laying. After the completion of your garden it would not be at all uncommon for your gardener to ask to be paid in cash. No matter what form of payment you agree on, be sure to get a receipt so there are no arguments later on.
Before work starts prepare a plan of expected tasks with the gardener, this will help them to live up to your expectations. The layout of your garden is something any decent gardener will be able to help you with, they will know which plants perform best where, don't be scared to ask for guidance. Ensure that the gardener will take away lawn cuttings, weeds and twigs afterwards, not all do this.
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 is always appreciated by gardeners and they will repay you by doing an extra fine job. Pop out for a chat with your gardener from time to time so you can benefit from their ideas and keep a friendly rapport. However, avoid incessant prattling which will only annoy the gardener and impede his/her progress.
