Finding a Gardener in St Agnes: When your beloved garden in St Agnes 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. Should you hire a professional St Agnes gardener or the "bloke down the street" who does gardens cheap? Whilst formal qualifications are not a requirement for gardeners, a professional is likely to have a wider range of knowledge than that "chap down the road" and will have a reputation to uphold. The decision is of course up to you.
It is never a good idea to have somebody looking after your garden who doesn't know what they're doing. So, your main objective must be to find a trustworthy St Agnes gardener who has a reputation for doing an excellent job. This is even more important if you have plants or trees in your garden which need specialist care. Hire a professional gardener and never settle for second best.
Even if you've got a small garden, there will be various tasks that require attention in a routine manner. With the arrival of spring the frequency with which such tasks need attending to increases. The more commonly required jobs that need doing in St Agnes gardens are grass cutting, hedge cutting, weeding and general cleaning. Other jobs like fence repairs, patio installation, driveway cleaning and waste clearance are also within most gardeners remit.
Who you hire may be dependent on your budget and whilst that "geezer down the street" might only charge you £10 to £15 per hour, a seasoned professional is going to set you back nearer to £20 for an hours gardening. You may find that your gardener will not be prepared to put in just an hours work. It's possible that your gardener will not be prepared to work for periods of less than 2 hours or more. When you consider things like travel, tool unloading and re-loading, and taking your waste to the tip this is easy to understand.
Payment in advance is not something that gardeners usually ask for, so be cautious if your gardener requires this. An exception might be when a large job is involved such as decking installation when some money up front may be asked for. Many St Agnes gardeners favour payment in cash, very few will take cards, they will only ask after you have approved their work. Having proof of payment is essential to avoid quarrels about unpaid bills, so make sure you get a receipt.
Be clear what your requirements are before the gardener begins work, have a list of jobs that need doing. Always ask your gardener for advice, he or she will know exactly what plants are best suited to your garden conditions. Some gardeners are not willing to dispose of all your garden waste, ensuring that yours will do this should be a priority.
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. Considerations like this will always be appreciated and will often result in a better standard of work. Wander out and have a chat with your gardener whenever the situation allows, this helps to develop a friendly connection and gives you the chance to share ideas. As with most things in life, moderation is the key. Keep chats short and to the point so that they can get on with what they are there for.

Garden Clearance St Agnes
If you allow green waste and general junk to build up in your garden, a time will transpire when you need to call in a garden clearance specialist. A few St Agnes gardeners will be happy to do this, but unless they hold a "Waste Carrier's Licence", they will be restricted on the quantity of waste they can dispose of. If only relatively small amounts of waste are involved it may be possible to dispose of most of it using your local council green waste bin (if you've got access to one), otherwise you will need additional help.
Obviously, many gardens in St Agnes are stacked up with all kinds of rubbish, and not simply "green" waste, so for this type of clearance you'll probably have to get in touch with a registered St Agnes garden clearance expert. If you've got a substantial amount of rubbish in your garden you could also think about renting a mini-skip. This would allow you to get rid of not only garden waste, but maybe also clear out your garage, your shed and possibly even you attic.
Generally speaking "green" garden waste will be things like: logs, bushes, turf, hedge clippings, lawn trimmings, plants, twigs, rocks, tree branches and dirt.
