Finding a Gardener in Utley: When your Utley garden starts looking rather droopy and under the weather, it is either time to get your gardening togs on or time to call in some expert help. That help should come in the shape of a professional Utley gardener with a bit of experience, and not the "guy down the road" who knocks on your door and offers to jet wash your patio. It will depend on exactly what you need doing, if it is just mowing your lawn then that "chap down the street" may be good enough, for more complex tasks, a professional will be more knowledgeable. At the end of the day you will have to choose.
You want your garden to be treated with respect by someone who knows exactly what they are doing. So take care to track down a local Utley gardener who can be trusted to do a decent job. This is even more important if you have plants or trees in your garden which need specialist care. You shouldn't take any chances, hire the best gardener you can afford.
No matter what size your garden is there will always be jobs that require attention as part of a routine. These jobs will need doing more regularly in the spring and summer and perhaps not at all in the winter. Typical jobs that folk with gardens in Utley require are lawn mowing, hedge cutting, weeding and general cleaning. Other jobs like waste clearance, garden fencing, cleaning driveways and decking installation are also within most gardeners remit.
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. Usually gardeners will not be happy doing just one hours work. Sessions of 2 or 3 hours are standard for many gardeners in Utley. This is to allow for travel, unloading tools and waste disposal.
Asking for money up front is not normal for gardeners (unlike builders), so be extra careful if they do. 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. Agree on an acceptable form of payment before work starts and always get a receipt once the bill has been paid.
Be transparent about your requirements before any work begins, give the gardener a rota of tasks that you would like to be done. Make the most of having a specialist on hand and follow their guidance with regards to your choice of plants and shrubs. Not every gardener is prepared to remove all the green waste, it would pay you to verify that yours is happy to do this. It is unfair to leave you with piles of garden waste.
Gardening is thirsty work, so don't forget to make a hot or cold drink for your gardener to keep his/her spirits up. These acts of kindness can go a long way and may even result in a better quality of job. Pop out for a chat with your gardener from time to time so you can benefit from their ideas and keep a friendly rapport. This does not mean you should pester them with constant wittering which will simply hinter them and slow down the work rate.
