Gardener Chelmsford Essex
Finding a Gardener in Chelmsford: You shouldn't be afraid to ask for some assistance if your garden in Chelmsford is in a bit of a mess and you don't really have the time to do it yourself. You could ask the "guy down the road" who does a bit of gardening or you could call on a professional Chelmsford gardener. The thing is that the "bloke down the street" will know how to trim your hedge and mow your lawn, but probably not much else, whilst a professional will have more in depth knowledge.
Your beloved garden deserves to be treated with respect by someone who has pride in their work and the knowledge to do it properly. So, be certain to locate a gardener in Chelmsford who you know you can trust. This will be even more critical for those of you with trees and shrubs in your garden. Hire a professional gardener and never settle for second best.

Those monthly, fortnightly or even weekly gardening jobs are often necessary even if your garden is small. You will need to book in more regular visits by your gardener in the spring and summer as these jobs pile up. Typical jobs that Chelmsford people need doing in their gardens include: hedge cutting, grass cutting, weeding and general tidying. Many gardeners will also be happy to take care of jobs like decking installation, repairing fences, waste removal and driveway cleaning
Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "fella down the road" may be happy to charge £10 to £15 an hour, a figure of £20 per hour is more usual for professionals. It might be the case that your chosen gardener will need more than an hour to whip your garden into shape. Most gardeners will have a minimum visit time of 2 hours. You must take into account travelling time, loading and unloading equipment and visits to the tip with your waste.
Trustworthy Chelmsford gardeners will never ask for money in advance, so be distrustful of anybody who does. However, you might expect to pay a deposit for large jobs such as landscaping. Once your garden is finished you should expect to be asked for payment in cash, because most gardeners prefer this. You don't want any arguments about payment in the future, so be sure to get a receipt.

A list of required tasks will help your gardener to plan his/her day, clearly lay out you exact requirements at the start. Don't be afraid to ask for advice, your gardener is the best person to tell you which plants are best for your garden. Gardening tends to generate a lot of waste, so verify that your gardener is going to dispose of this when they are finished. Being left with large quantities of garden waste is something that you need to avoid.
It doesn't hurt to offer your gardener a drink during their toils, after all gardening is thirsty work. Considerations like this will always be appreciated and will often result in a better standard of work. Wander out and have a chat with your gardener whenever the situation allows, this helps to develop a friendly connection and gives you the chance to share ideas. In doing this, don't prevent them from getting on with their work, because this will make the job take longer and cost you more money in the long run.
