Finding a Gardener in Plawsworth: If your garden is looking overgrown and untidy you should think about calling in some help if you don't have the inclination or time to tackle it on your own. Now, you might be tempted to bring in the "chap down the road" who you have heard does some gardening, or more sensibly contact a proper Plawsworth gardener. Whilst a professional gardener might not necessarily have qualifications he/she will likely know considerably more than that "chap down the street". If you are still not sure, read the rest of this article.
You definately need to get a gardener who knows how to treat your garden and its contents. So, be certain to locate a gardener in Plawsworth who you know you can trust. This is particularly crucial when your garden contains shrubs and trees which require special attention. Don't put up with "rogue trader" gardeners, choose a dependable one.
The thing about gardening is that there are always jobs that need doing routinely, even on small gardens. In spring and summer you should organise more frequent gardener visits as the jobs that need doing increase. The more commonly required jobs that need doing in Plawsworth gardens are weeding, general cleaning, hedge pruning and lawn mowing. Other jobs like cleaning driveways, laying patios, repairing fences and waste removal are also within most gardeners remit.
An hourly rate of around £20 is what you should expect to pay for a decent gardener. 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. It would not be that unusual for a gardener to have a minimum visit time of 2 to 3 hours. If you think that this is just to stretch the job out, think again. They have to travel to and from your home, they have to unload mowers and garden tools, and they will probably have to load your waste onto their trailer and take it to a nearby rubbish tip.
You should be suspicious of any gardener who demands payment in advance. "Cash is king" as they say, and most gardeners prefer this type of payment, but only once the work is complete of course. Irrespective of what kind of payment you agree with your gardener, always ask for a receipt as proof that he/she has been paid.
Be clear about your expectations from the very beginning, prepare a list of work you need doing. It isn't always easy for you to know which plants will grow best in your garden, the advice of your gardener will be invaluable. 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. Give preference to gardeners who agree to take away all the garden waste.
Gardening is hard work, so remember to ask if your gardener wants a drink at some point during the day. Such kindnesses are much appreciated and will likely be repaid by extra efforts on your behalf. In order to benefit from his/her knowledge and to keep a friendly rapport going, pop out for a chat now and again. However, don't follow them around all day, generally getting in their way and bombarding them with constant questions.
