Finding a Gardener in Stow-on-the-Wold: 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. Now you could call in a proper Stow-on-the-Wold gardener or you could try the "chap down the road". It is the job of any self-respecting gardener in Stow-on-the-Wold to have the necessary knowledge to look after your garden, while that "fella down the street" is just in it for a few bob on the side. Perhaps this article will help you make your choice.
You certainly don't want your cherished garden to be in any way mistreated by an ignorant or uninformed "gardener" who is just in it for a buck. So, try to find a local Stow-on-the-Wold gardener who is trustworthy and reliable. With gardens containing bushes, plants and trees requiring expert attention, getting the right gardener is even more critical. Don't settle for less than the best.
The thing about gardening is that there are always jobs that need doing routinely, even on small gardens. Gardener visits will generally need to be more regular in spring and summer, with jobs being done more frequently. The more commonly required jobs that need doing in Stow-on-the-Wold gardens are hedge trimming, general cleaning, grass cutting and weeding. Bigger tasks such as patio installation, waste removal, garden fencing and cleaning driveways can also be handled by the majority of gardeners.
Getting your garden done by a professional isn't cheap and you are likely to be paying close to £20 per hour for the priviledge. In order to make much difference to your garden, most gardeners will need to invest more than an hour of hard graft. Some gardeners may even insist on a minimum slot of two or three hours. This is understandable when you factor in travelling time, loading/unloading, and waste disposal.
Be cautious of anyone who demands payment for gardening services in advance. It isn't uncommon for a gardener to ask to be paid in cash, though only after the gardening work is completed to your satisfaction. Don't forget to ask for a receipt irrespective of if you pay by cheque, card or cash, having proof of payment prevents later quarrels.
Prior to work commencing give the gardener a clear picture of what you're expecting to be done. The layout of your garden is something any decent gardener will be able to help you with, they will know which plants perform best where, don't be scared to ask for guidance. It might be sensible to verify that your gardener disposes of any waste materials as part of the service, not all Stow-on-the-Wold gardeners do. You really do not want to be stuck with a huge mound of garden waste that is difficult to dispose of.
Gardeners are used to providing their own refreshments, but this shouldn't stop you from offering them a cup of tea or even a cold drink on a hot summer's day. 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's important that you and your gardener have a friendly relationship with each other. Pop into the garden for regular chats to discuss gardening ideas and plans. It is not however a good idea to pester them constantly which will have the effect of annoying them and slowing the work down.
