Finding a Gardener in Stoke St Gregory: You shouldn't be afraid to ask for some assistance if your garden in Stoke St Gregory is in a bit of a mess and you don't really have the time to do it yourself. Should you hire a professional Stoke St Gregory gardener or the "fellow down the road" who does gardens cheap? It will depend on exactly what you need doing, if it is just mowing your lawn then that "geezer down the road" may be good enough, for more complex tasks, a professional will be more knowledgeable.
You want your garden to be treated with respect by someone who knows exactly what they are doing. Always be certain to get hold of a local Stoke St Gregory gardener who can be counted on. This is even more important if you have plants or trees in your garden which need specialist care. Don't get stuck with rogues and cowboys, hire a proper gardener.
The routine jobs which need doing in the garden are likely to be much the same regardless whether your garden is small or big. These routine jobs have to be done more frequently throughout the spring and summertime. Typical jobs that Stoke St Gregory people need doing in their gardens include: mowing lawns, hedge trimming, weeding and general tidying. Most Stoke St Gregory gardeners will also take on jobs like waste removal, driveway cleaning, fence repairs and decking installation.
Good gardeners don't come cheap, a professional gardener is likely to charge you £20 per hour or more, while that "bloke down the street" might do it for £10 to £12 per hour. One hour in your garden is not very much and the average gardener will need to spend more time than that to get much done. Most will want to put in at least 2 to 3 hours at a time to make it worth their while. They have to allow for other things such as disposing of your garden waste at the local rubbish tip, unloading tools and equipment, and actually getting to and from your home.
Don't pay any Stoke St Gregory gardener in advance of the job being done, this is not the norm and they may disappear with your money. Once your garden is finished you should expect to be asked for payment in cash, because most gardeners prefer this. Whether you pay by card, cheque or cash, insist on a receipt, this will prevent later disputes over payment.
Be transparent about your requirements before any work begins, give the gardener a rota of tasks that you would like to be done. Planning out exactly what goes where in your garden is important, the help and guidance of your gardener will help you to get it right. It might be sensible to verify that your gardener disposes of any waste materials as part of the service, not all Stoke St Gregory gardeners do.
Spare a thought for your gardener toiling away on your property with no facilities at hand. Offer them the use of your toilet and perhaps provide a drink. There is no telling what advantages may be gained by you for such little acts of kindness. So that you can forge a friendly relationship with your gardener it is often a nice idea to pop out for a chat now and again. This also helps you to gain some additional gardening knowhow and useful tips. However, don't follow them around all day, generally getting in their way and bombarding them with constant questions.
