Finding a Gardener in Siston: When your Siston garden starts looking rather droopy and under the weather, it is either time to get your gardening togs on or time to call in some expert help. It's often easy to just bring in the "chap down the road" who does odd jobs and gardening on the side, but think carefully, would a proper gardener be a better choice? It is the job of any self-respecting gardener in Siston to have the necessary knowledge to look after your garden, while that "geezer down the street" is just in it for a few quid on the side.
It is never a good idea to have somebody looking after your garden who doesn't know what they're doing. Always be certain to get hold of a local Siston gardener who can be counted on. If you have a garden containing certain trees and shrubs, the importance of this is even more apparent. Don't make do with any Tom, Dick or Harry, get yourself a decent gardener.
All gardens, whether large or small need regular upkeep and maintenance with lots of jobs to be done. These routine jobs have to be done more frequently throughout the spring and summertime. As a rule lawn mowing, trimming hedges, weeding and general cleaning are the typical gardening jobs that need doing on a regular basis. There are plenty more jobs that might need doing for example fence repairs, decking installation, waste clearance and cleaning driveways, most Siston gardeners will also be willing to tackle these.
Gardeners rates vary, but professionals will probably set you back around £20 per hour, with that "guy down the street" accepting perhaps £10 or £12 for the same time period. One hours work is not enough to make much impression on your garden, so you should reckon on them needing to spend more time than this. It would not be that unusual for a gardener to have a minimum visit time of 2 to 3 hours. The reason for this is that they have to allow time for travel, waste disposal and getting tools on and off their truck.
Be wary of "gardeners" who ask for payment in advance, no genuine Siston gardener would do this. Exceptions can be made when large jobs like patio laying are involved, some money up front might then be appropriate. It isn't uncommon for a gardener to ask to be paid in cash, though only after the gardening work is completed to your satisfaction. You don't want any arguments about payment in the future, so be sure to get a receipt.
Be clear about your expectations from the very beginning, prepare a list of work you need doing. Getting the full benefit of your gardeners expertise is something you should always seek to do. Check that your gardener will remove any waste such as lawn trimmings and branches, some do not. This garden waste can build up and at some point you are going to need to get rid of it.
Remember to keep the gardener supplied with drinks if you are around while the gardening is being done. Keeping a gardener "sweet" with little acts of kindness like this may be repaid by increased efforts on their part. Try to have a regular dialogue with your gardener, during which you can swap ideas, gain some knowledge and forge a friendly rapport at the same time. However, don't follow them around all day, generally getting in their way and bombarding them with constant questions.
Garden Clearance Siston
While most gardeners will be willing to do a certain amount of garden clearance in Siston, many of them will not have a "Waste Carriers Licence", and will subsequently be constrained in the quantity of waste they can carry. If only relatively small amounts of waste are involved it might be feasible to get rid of most of it using your local council garden waste bin (if you've got one), otherwise you'll need additional help.
Of course, a lot of gardens in Siston are heaped up with all sorts of garbage, and not simply "green" waste, so for this form of task you'll possibly need to call a registered Siston garden clearance expert. You could also consider renting a mini-skip if you have a substantial amount of rubbish in your garden. In conjunction with your garden waste, this would maybe also make it possible for you to have a good clear out in your shed, your garage and even your loft, if they are full of clutter as well.
Generally pruned branches, lawn trimmings, weeds, logs, twigs, shrubs, soil, rocks, hedge clippings and turf, will be viewed as "green" waste.
