Finding a Gardener in Swallownest: Sorting out a dreary and overgrown garden is not everyone's cup of tea, so if you find yourself in this situation you should not be afraid to ask for some outside assistance. It is generally advisable to opt for a professional Swallownest gardener, as opposed to the "guy down the street" who does a bit of gardening. Though now and again you will find that "guy down the road" has some reasonable gardening knowledge, a professional gardener in Swallownest will generally be more qualified in horticultural matters.
You want your garden to be treated with respect by someone who knows exactly what they are doing. So, try to find a local Swallownest gardener who is trustworthy and reliable. When you have a garden containing trees and shrubs needing expert care, this is even more important. Get a dependable Swallownest gardener, not a "rogue trader".
The thing about gardening is that there are always jobs that need doing routinely, even on small gardens. You will need to book in more regular visits by your gardener in the spring and summer as these jobs pile up. As a rule hedge cutting, weeding, grass cutting and general tidying are the typical gardening jobs that need doing on a regular basis. Most professional Swallownest gardeners will also help with waste clearance, driveway cleaning, garden fencing and laying patios.
Gardeners rates vary, but professionals will probably set you back around £20 per hour, with that "bloke down the road" accepting perhaps £10 or £12 for the same time period. 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. Sessions of 2 or 3 hours are standard for many gardeners in Swallownest. Bear in mind the fact that they have travelling time to and from your home, and they may need to visit the local dump to dispose or your garden waste.
If a gardener asks for payment up front you should be very wary, as this is not normal practice. An exception to this rule of thumb would be with more extensive tasks for example decking or fencing when being asked for a deposit for materials is quite normal. 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 card, cheque or cash, having proof of payment prevents later quarrels.
Before the gardener gets to work on your garden make sure he or she is clear about your requirements, a list of expected tasks might help. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. Make sure that all twigs, weeds and lawn cuttings will be removed and disposed of afterwards, certain gardeners don't do this.
If you are at home while the gardening is being done, keep your gardener supplied with drinks. These acts of kindness can go a long way and may even result in a better quality of job. 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. Constant interruptions should however be avoided.
