Large and small gardens alike need routine maintenance with various jobs that need attending to. The warmth of spring and summer increases the frequency with which these jobs need to be done. While the jobs that people in Altham need doing in their gardens are many and varied the most common are lawn mowing, general cleaning, weeding and hedge trimming. More involved tasks might include: garden fencing, driveway cleaning, decking installation 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. Certainly for the first visit you should reckon on your gardener needing more than an hour to get the job done. In order for them to do all the neccessary work they may need to put in at least two or three hours. 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.

Give short shrift to any Altham gardener who expects to be paid up front before doing any work. Big projects such as garden fencing may be an exception, because materials have to be bought and a deposit may be required. When the gardener has finished working you may be asked for payment in cash, this is not at all unusual. Whatever kind of payment you and your gardener agree on, get a receipt to avoid later arguments.

Make certain the gardener knows what your expectations are for your garden, job lists can help make everything clearer. Always ask your gardener for advice, he or she will know exactly what plants are best suited to your garden conditions. It might be sensible to verify that your gardener disposes of any waste materials as part of the service, not all Altham gardeners do.

Working in the garden can get cold in winter and hot in summer, so spare a thought for your gardener and keep him/her supplied with a drink. Small things like this will help make the gardener happy in his/her work and a contented gardener may work harder on your behalf. Try to have a regular dialogue with your gardener, during which you can swap ideas, gain some knowledge and forge a friendly rapport at the same time. Don't stand there all day twittering on however, which only results in a frustrated gardener and an incomplete garden.

Garden Design Altham

If your plan is to not just have your garden tidied up but also to have it completely re-designed, you may need someone other than a standard gardener. These days computer programs are available to help with garden design, not all gardeners will have access to this. Talk to your gardener about it to see what their feelings are about doing this. It might just be a case of searching for somebody else who specialises in this field.
