Finding a Gardener in Elvaston: 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 street" who does odd jobs and gardening on the side, but think carefully, would a proper gardener be a better choice? It will depend on exactly what you need doing, if it is just mowing your lawn then that "geezer down the street" may be good enough, for more complex tasks, a professional will be more knowledgeable. Ultimately, you will have to choose what is best for your garden.
A gardener who knows precisely what they're doing will treat your garden with the respect that it deserves. Thus, your primary goal ought to be to find a gardener in the Elvaston district who is known for doing a good job and is regarded as being dependable. Even if in your trees and plants are pretty ordinary they still need to be handled with care and dedication. Don't settle for any old gardener, get a decent one.
There is a seemingly endless list of jobs to be done in the garden, even if it is relatively small. It goes without saying that regular garden maintenance is needed more frequently during the spring and summer months with a decline in the winter. Typical jobs that folk with gardens in Elvaston require are weeding, lawn mowing, general cleaning and hedge cutting. It is unlikely that your gardener will refuse tasks such as decking installation, cleaning driveways, repairing fences and waste clearance.
Decent gardeners will come at a premium, so don't expect them to work for peanuts. Charges generally start at approximately twenty pounds per hour. In order to make much difference to your garden, most gardeners will need to invest more than an hour of hard graft. You might find that your gardener will not be interested in visits of less than two 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.
Any gardener who asks for payment in advance should raise your suspicions, you want to see results before forking out any money. More involved tasks like patio laying can be considered an exception, since expensive materials need to be obtained and quite rightly a deposit will be requested. Once the work is completed, it's not unusual for the gardener to ask for payment in cash rather than a cheque. Remember to get a receipt whether you pay the gardener by cheque, cash or card, this negates later disputes.
Prior to work commencing give the gardener a clear picture of what you're expecting to be done. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. Not all gardeners like to take away the waste and lawn clippings, so check that yours does.
Gardening is hard work, so remember to ask if your gardener wants a drink at some point during the day. These acts of kindness can go a long way and may even result in a better quality of job. To keep a friendly rapport going with your gardener and to gain the maximum benefit from their knowledge, pop out for a chat whenever you get the chance. Constant interruptions should however be avoided.
