Finding a Gardener in Steeple Barton: Calling in some outside help to get your bedraggled garden back into shape, isn't something to be ashamed of if you never seem to have enough time to do it yourself. Though there are a number of people in Steeple Barton offering gardening services, not all are necessarily suitable to be let loose on your prized garden. The thing is that the "fella down the street" will know how to mow your lawn and trim your hedge, but probably not much else, whilst a professional will have more in depth knowledge. The decision as they say is yours.
It should certainly go without saying that any gardener you hire should be informed enough to care for your garden and the contents within it.

Even if your garden is relatively small, there are a handful of jobs which need attending to on a routine basis. As you can imagine the need for this regular maintenance is more necessary in spring and summer. Typically people with gardens in Steeple Barton need jobs done like weeding, general cleaning, mowing lawns and hedge trimming. It is likely that your gardener will also help you with patio installation, waste clearance, cleaning driveways and repairing fences.
Regular garden maintenance can cost quite a bit of money because an experienced gardener will probably charge you something like twenty pounds per hour worked. 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. Many gardeners might even insist on a minimum visit time of at least two hours or so. Getting to and from your house, unloading and re-loading tools and equipment, and transporting your garden waste to the local tip are all factors that they have to consider before taking on a gardening job.
Payment in advance is not something that gardeners usually ask for, so be cautious if your gardener requires this. You might however expect to pay a deposit for materials with larger tasks such as decking or fencing. Many Steeple Barton gardeners favour payment in cash, very few will take cards, they will only ask after you have approved their work. Irrespective of what kind of payment you agree with your gardener, always ask for a receipt as proof that he/she has been paid.
Make out a list of gardening jobs that require attention and be transparent about your expectations before the work starts. Any self-respecting gardener will be more than happy to help you get your garden in order, use this help and guidance wisely. Gardening tends to generate a lot of waste, so verify that your gardener is going to dispose of this when they are finished. Unless you want to keep it for your compost heap.
Gardening makes you thirsty so keep yours supplied with drinks if you're at home. This type of kindness is always welcome and your gardener may show his/her gratitude by doing a great job on your garden. 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.
