Finding a Gardener in Upper Basildon: If your garden in Upper Basildon is getting messy and you really don't have the time to keep it up to scratch, you should not be embarrassed to ask for some help. It's often easy to just bring in the "chap down the road" who does odd jobs and gardening on the side, but think carefully, would a proper gardener be a better choice? Though now and again you will find that "bloke down the road" has some reasonable gardening knowledge, a professional gardener in Upper Basildon will generally be more qualified in horticultural matters.
You definately need to get a gardener who knows how to treat your garden and its contents. So take care to track down a local Upper Basildon gardener who can be trusted to do a decent job. The importance of this cannot be stressed enough, when certain shrubs and trees are involved. Get a dependable Upper Basildon gardener, not a "rogue trader".
Even if you only have a small garden, there are lots of jobs that need doing on a regular basis. In spring and summer you should organise more frequent gardener visits as the jobs that need doing increase. Commonly weeding, general tidying, lawn mowing and hedge trimming are the gardening tasks that people in Upper Basildon need done. Many quality gardeners in Upper Basildon will also be willing to assist with decking installation, driveway cleaning, fence repairs and waste clearance.
Decent gardeners do not come cheap, the "guy down the road" might do your gardening for £10 or £12 an hour, but a professional will probably charge nearer to £20 per hour. In order to make much difference to your garden, most gardeners will need to invest more than an hour of hard graft. Most will want to put in at least 2 to 3 hours at a time to make it worth their while. If you think that this is just to stretch the job out, think again. They have to travel to and from your home, they have to unload mowers and garden tools, and they will probably have to load your waste onto their trailer and take it to a nearby rubbish tip.
Any gardener who asks for payment in advance should raise your suspicions, you want to see results before forking out any money. Exceptions to this rule could be in respect of large projects such as fencing or decking where considerable amounts of materials are needed. Of course gardeners often ask for payment in cash after the work is completed. Whatever kind of payment you and your gardener agree on, get a receipt to avoid later arguments.
A list of required tasks will help your gardener to plan his/her day, clearly lay out you exact requirements at the start. Most gardeners will be happy to offer guidance and advice on various aspects of gardening, make use of this help whenever you can. Check that your gardener will remove any waste such as lawn trimmings and branches, some do not.
While most gardeners bring their own food and refreshments it doesn't hurt to ask if they would like a cup of tea or coffee while they are working. Considerations like this will always be appreciated and will often result in a better standard of work. By having a quick chat with your gardener every once in a while, you can pick up some tips while also building a friendly rapport. You should not however take this to the extreme, and stand there chattering all day long, which will only hold up your gardener and make the job take longer.
