Finding a Gardener in Walpole: Nobody likes to see their garden looking a little the worse for wear, so fetching in some outside help is always a possibility if you can't find the time to spare. When you take the plunge and do this, be careful who you choose. Do you call the "chap down the road" or an established local Walpole gardener? Although there is no guarantee that a professional gardener will have any recognised horticultural qualifications, he/she will almost certainly have a great deal more gardening knowledge than that "fella down the street" is going to have.
If you cherish your garden you will want a gardener with some savvy, who appreciates what you have and looks after it correctly. So, try to find a local Walpole gardener who is trustworthy and reliable. This is especially important if you have trees and shrubs, which need proper care and attention. Don't make do with any old rubbish, track down a proper gardener.
Those monthly, fortnightly or even weekly gardening jobs are often necessary even if your garden is small. In spring and summer you should organise more frequent gardener visits as the jobs that need doing increase. Typical jobs that Walpole people need doing in their gardens include: hedge trimming, general cleaning, grass cutting and weeding. Tasks such as waste removal, cleaning driveways, repairing fences and decking installation are other things that your gardener will probably help you with.
Experienced gardeners don't come cheap and if you are being charged around £20 per hour, that is about average. You shouldn't expect too much from your gardener on his/her first visit, because gardening takes time and dependant on the amount of work that needs doing, several hours may be required. Certain Walpole gardeners will want 2 or more hours work each time they visit your garden. Travel to and away from your home, bringing in and taking away mowers and tools, and the responsible disposal of your waste all have to be factored in.
Payment in advance is not something that gardeners usually ask for, so be cautious if your gardener requires this. Payment of some money up front could be appropriate when bigger jobs are being done like hard landscaping. 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.
Giving a clear understanding of just what needs doing before work begins, will better help your gardener meet your expectations. Ask your gardener about your specific garden conditions and get advice about the best plants to grow to get the perfect results. If there is going to be a lot of waste produced by your gardener, double check they he/she will take it away afterwards. You really do not want to be stuck with a huge mound of garden waste that is difficult to dispose of.
Spare a thought for your gardener toiling away on your property with no facilities at hand. Offer them the use of your toilet and perhaps provide a drink. You can expect your gardener to very much appreciate gestures like this and to repay you with increased output. Building a friendly relationship with your gardener is always a good idea, it enables you to soak up a little of their knowledge and ideas. However, avoid incessant prattling which will only annoy the gardener and impede his/her progress.
Garden Design Walpole
When it comes to the re-designing of gardens it can pay to find a person who specialises in this area of horticulture. Certain Walpole gardeners welcome the challenge of designing but many are happier just to do your routine garden maintenance. A quick discussion should soon reveal if your gardener is comfortable dealing with garden design. If worse comes to worst you might have to call on an expert.
Tree Surgery Walpole
Plenty of gardeners in Walpole will have some basic knowledge of trees along with plants and shrubs, and they'll be delighted to do a few elementary tree surgery tasks when necessary. Though for any important work it is advisable to use the professional services of a qualified tree surgeon, for incidental pruning and clipping, your neighbourhood Walpole gardener should have all of the vital skills.
It's not at all unheard of for larger trees to overgrow and get out of hand, causing a real danger to electricity lines or even your house. Tree roots can also damage drives, sewage pipework, foundations and patios, therefore you should always keep a keen eye on them. If you have suspicions that these or other issues are being triggered by any of the trees in your garden in Walpole, you should have a chat with your gardener first for advice.
