Finding a Gardener in Stanmore: If your garden is looking overgrown and untidy you should think about calling in some help if you don't have the inclination or time to tackle it on your own. Think carefully before you hire someone because lots of people in Stanmore do gardening, some are professional gardeners and some just dabble. Whilst a professional gardener might not necessarily have qualifications he/she will likely know considerably more than that "chap down the street". The decision is of course up to you.
If you cherish your garden you will want a gardener with some savvy, who appreciates what you have and looks after it correctly. So take care to track down a local Stanmore gardener who can be trusted to do a decent job. This is especially important if you have trees and shrubs, which need proper care and attention. Get yourself a good gardener, don't just settle for any old one.
Large and small gardens alike need routine maintenance with various jobs that need attending to. In spring and summer you should organise more frequent gardener visits as the jobs that need doing increase. People with gardens in Stanmore most often want jobs done like mowing lawns, weeding, general cleaning and hedge pruning. Other jobs like laying patios, cleaning driveways, waste removal and repairing fences are also within most gardeners remit.
While that "guy down the street" might quote you ten to fifteen pounds an hour to "do" your garden, an experienced gardener will come at a considerably higher price (£20 per hour maybe). Certainly for the first visit you should reckon on your gardener needing more than an hour to get the job done. Most gardeners will have a minimum visit time of 2 hours. If you think that this is just to stretch the job out, think again. They have to travel to and from your home, they have to unload mowers and garden tools, and they will probably have to load your waste onto their trailer and take it to a nearby rubbish tip.
Give short shrift to any Stanmore gardener who expects to be paid up front before doing any work. Paying a deposit for materials might be appropriate for bigger jobs like patio laying. Payment in cash is not unusual for gardeners, though this will be requested after all work is completed and approved. Irrespective of what kind of payment you agree with your gardener, always ask for a receipt as proof that he/she has been paid.
Right from the start and before any work commences, ensure your gardener has a clear understanding of exactly what needs doing. Getting the full benefit of your gardeners expertise is something you should always seek to do. Not all gardeners like to take away the waste and lawn clippings, so check that yours does.
Gardening is thirsty work, so don't forget to make a hot or cold drink for your gardener to keep his/her spirits up. Small things like this will help make the gardener happy in his/her work and a contented gardener may work harder on your behalf. 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. However, don't follow them around all day, generally getting in their way and bombarding them with constant questions.
Garden Clearance Stanmore
You'll discover that certain Stanmore gardeners will be ready to do a limited amount of garden clearance, providing that there's only green waste and there isn't too much involved. A limited number of gardeners in Stanmore will even have a "Waste Carrier Licence", which enables them to take larger quantities and different types of waste. If you have a council green waste bin (you normally pay extra for this), you might be able to get rid of the majority of it gradually, if the amounts of waste are only modest.
Needless to say, a lot of gardens in Stanmore are piled up with all kinds of rubbish, and not simply green waste, so for this type of task you will possibly need to call a registered Stanmore garden clearance expert. If you have a considerable amount of waste in your garden you might also think about renting a mini-skip. Taking this course would make it possible for you to perhaps clear out your shed, your garage and maybe even your loft, in addition to your garden waste.
In general "green" garden waste would be the likes of: bushes, lawn trimmings, wood shavings, pruned branches, hedge clippings, dead flowers, logs, topsoil, twigs and turf. (Tags: Garden Clearance Stanmore, "Green" Waste Removal Stanmore, Garden Clearances Stanmore).
Tree Surgery Stanmore
When required, some gardeners in Stanmore will be prepared to do some basic tree surgery, as the vast majority of them will have a reasonable knowledge of shrubs and trees. For minor pruning and cutting back, your neighbourhood Stanmore gardener should have all the appropriate skills, but it is best to use the professional services of a certified tree surgeon for any major work.
It isn't unheard of for trees to overgrow and get out of hand, causing a hazard to power cables or even your house. Additionally footings, drives, sewer pipes and terraces can be damaged by tree roots, so keeping an eye on any trees growing on your land is crucially important. If you suspect that any trees on your property in Stanmore are causing issues, speak to your gardener first, because they will possibly be able to help.
