Finding a Gardener in Strood: If you wake up one day and realise just how untidy and overgrown your garden has become, it might be appropriate to call in somebody to help you out, unless you can find the time in your busy life to tackle it yourself. It is tempting to call on the "fellow down the street" who helps out your neighbour, or you could actually bring in a proper Strood gardener. Though now and again you will find that "chap down the road" has some reasonable gardening knowledge, a professional gardener in Strood will generally be more qualified in horticultural matters.
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. Make sure you locate a dependable Strood gardener who'll do a real good job. If you have a garden containing certain trees and shrubs, the importance of this is even more apparent. Retain the services of the best you can afford and don't take chances.
There are plenty of jobs that require regular attention even if you've only got a small garden. Spring is the busiest time with jobs needing to be done more frequently than during the rest of the year. While the jobs that people in Strood need doing in their gardens are many and varied the most common are grass cutting, weeding, general tidying and trimming hedges. Most decent gardeners in Strood will tackle other jobs such as driveway cleaning, laying patios, waste removal and garden fencing.
Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "bloke down the road" may be happy to charge £10 to £15 an hour, a figure of £20 per hour is more usual for professionals. 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. You must take into account travelling time, loading and unloading equipment and visits to the tip with your waste.
You should never expect to have to pay any gardener in advance. "Cash is king" as they say, and most gardeners prefer this type of payment, but only once the work is complete of course. Irrespective of what kind of payment you agree with your gardener, always ask for a receipt as proof that he/she has been paid.
Prior to work commencing give the gardener a clear picture of what you're expecting to be done. Once your gardener starts you will have an expert at your fingertips, make the most of it and get plenty of advice and guidance. It might be sensible to verify that your gardener disposes of any waste materials as part of the service, not all Strood gardeners do. It is generally better for them to take it rather than cluttering up your garden.
It pays to be thoughtful and supplying your gardener with a drink or two will help his/her day along. Small things like this will help make the gardener happy in his/her work and a contented gardener may work harder on your behalf. 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. Occasionally is the key word with this approach however, don't hold them up by standing over them and nattering all day long.
