Finding a Gardener in Chopwell: Bringing in some outside assistance to knock a tired and bedraggled garden back into shape is something many busy people have to do these days, especially after a long and blustery winter. It's often easy to just bring in the "fellow down the road" who does odd jobs and gardening on the side, but think carefully, would a proper gardener be a better choice? While you don't need horticultural qualifications to be a gardener, most professional gardeners in the Chopwell area will have a lot more knowledge than that "fella down the road" is likely to have.
You certainly want a gardener who will treat your garden with respect and not cause it any harm or damage. So, finding a trustworthy and reliable Chopwell gardener is something you should take care in doing. The importance of this cannot be stressed enough, when certain shrubs and trees are involved. Get a dependable Chopwell gardener, not a "rogue trader".
Small gardens need routine attention just like larger ones and the jobs may be much the same but on a smaller scale. Such routine jobs will need attention more frequently at certain times of the year, in particular spring and summer. Typically general tidying, hedge trimming, lawn mowing and weeding are the more common jobs that folk with gardens in Chopwell need done. The majority of Chopwell gardeners will also be more than happy to deal with bigger tasks like waste clearance, repairing fences, driveway cleaning and decking installation.
Who you hire may be dependent on your budget and whilst that "fellow down the road" might only charge you £10 to £15 per hour, a seasoned professional is going to set you back nearer to £20 for an hours gardening. Don't expect miracles, especially on the first session, and count on it taking more than a single hour for your gardener to make much difference to the look of your garden. For it to be worth their while, gardeners generally favour doing 2 or 3 hours at a stretch. This isn't surprising when you appreciate that they have to get to and from your house, load/unload, and resposibly dispose of your waste at the local recycling centre.
It would not be normal for a genuine Chopwell gardener to ask for payment in advance, so be wary if this happens to you. An exception to this rule of thumb would be with more extensive tasks for example patio laying when being asked for a deposit for materials is quite normal. When the gardener has finished working you may be asked for payment in cash, this is not at all unusual. To avoid any arguments later on, make sure you get a receipt no matter what kind of payment you agree on.
A list of required tasks will help your gardener to plan his/her day, clearly lay out you exact requirements at the start. Your gardener will be there to give you advice and guidance on any aspect of your garden, so make the most of his/her knowledge. Removing and disposing of lawn and hedge clippings isn't always part of the service so make sure that your gardener will do this for you.
It doesn't hurt to offer your gardener a drink during their toils, after all gardening is thirsty work. This is always appreciated by gardeners and they will repay you by doing an extra fine job. By having a quick chat with your gardener every once in a while, you can pick up some tips while also building a friendly rapport. This is not to say you should stand there all day gabbing, this will merely hinder your gardener and stop him/her from doing their job.
