Finding a Gardener in St Gennys: You should never be ashamed to ask for assistance if your St Gennys garden is a bit lacklustre and you simply cannot find the time to tackle it yourself. That help should come in the shape of a professional St Gennys gardener with a bit of experience, and not the "fellow down the street" who knocks on your door and offers to jet wash your patio. The problem is that "fellow down the road" will probably know very little about gardening, whereas a professional will have a wide spectrum of knowledge.
You do not want your precious garden to be spoilt by someone who doesn't have to knowledge to look after it properly. Always ensure that you locate a gardener in St Gennys who you can rely on to do a nice job. This is even more important if you have plants or trees in your garden which need specialist care. Retain the services of the best you can afford and don't take chances.
Gardens are all about routine maintenance, with jobs to be done fortnightly or monthly, even with smaller gardens.

Most decent gardeners in St Gennys will tackle other jobs such as waste clearance, fence repairs, driveway cleaning and decking installation.
An hourly rate of around £20 is what you should expect to pay for a decent gardener. The average gardener in St Gennys will not be satisfied with doing your garden in one hour sessions. It is often not worth their while to do much less than two hours gardening at a time. This is not greed or stretching the job out, but simply making allowances for travel, unloading and waste removal when necessary.
Asking for money up front is not normal for gardeners (unlike builders), so be extra careful if they do. An exception might be when a large job is involved such as patio laying when some money up front may be asked for. It is not unusual for gardeners to ask for payment in cash, but only after the work is done. Whatever kind of payment you and your gardener agree on, get a receipt to avoid later arguments.
At the outset explain to your gardener what your exact requirements are, a job list is also helpful in setting out your priorities. 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.
If you are at home while the gardening is being done, keep your gardener supplied with drinks. This sort of kindness is always very much appreciated. It helps to keep things friendly, so popping out for a chat every now and again will help to do this and also give you the chance to get some tips from your gardener. Don't overdo this though, because constant nattering will slow down the whole process and may put your gardener off returning.
Tree Surgery St Gennys
If needed, some gardeners in St Gennys will be quite willing to do some basic tree surgery tasks, as most of them will have at least a fundamental knowledge of plants and trees. Though your local St Gennys gardener should have the required skills to carry out pruning and cutting back, for any major work it is advisable to use the expert services of a certified tree surgeon.
It isn't unusual for larger trees to become overgrown, creating a danger to power lines or even your home.
