It is not too much to ask that any gardener treats your garden, plants and contents with a degree of respect. Thus, your primary goal ought to be to find a gardener in the Whalley district who is known for doing a good job and is regarded as being dependable. Even if your garden has only run of the mill plants you will want them looked after correctly. Avoid settling for any old chancer, find yourself a decent gardener.
The thing with gardens is that the jobs that need doing are routine, the same things need doing perhaps weekly, fortnightly or monthly. These routine jobs have to be done more frequently throughout the spring and summertime. The more commonplace place tasks that need doing in Whalley gardens are likely to be hedge cutting, grass cutting, weeding and general tidying. It is unlikely that your gardener will refuse tasks such as laying patios, repairing fences, driveway cleaning and waste removal.
The rates charged by professional gardeners varies widely but if you are paying an hourly rate of about £20, that is reasonable. 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. Most gardeners will have a minimum visit time of 2 hours. When you consider things like travel, tool unloading and re-loading, and taking your waste to the tip this is easy to understand.
Be cautious of anyone who demands payment for gardening services in advance. Exceptions can be made when large jobs like fencing or decking are involved, some money up front might then be appropriate. Of course gardeners often ask for payment in cash after the work is completed. Remember to get a receipt whether you pay the gardener by cheque, card or cash, this negates later disputes.
Always explain exactly what your needs are, a list of projects will make things clearer for the gardener. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. Getting rid of your lawn trimmings and hedge clippings won't always be part of the service so ensure that in your case it is. Garden waste is not the easiest stuff to get rid of, so make sure they take it away.
Gardening is thirsty work, so don't forget to make a hot or cold drink for your gardener to keep his/her spirits up. This is always appreciated by gardeners and they will repay you by doing an extra fine job. 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. But don't hold them up with incessant chatter, this will only hinder them and may result in inferior or incomplete work.
