Finding a Gardener in Winkleigh: Even though you may enjoy doing the gardening you can sometimes get so behind that it becomes overgrown and a bit of a mess. This might be the right time to bring in someone else to help you. Though there are a number of people in Winkleigh offering gardening services, not all are necessarily suitable to be let loose on your prized garden. Though quite often you will find that a professional gardener in Winkleigh doesn't hold any horticultural qualifications, he or she will probably be considerably more knowledgeable than your average "chap down the road". That of course is a decision that you will have to make.
You want your prized garden to be treated with a certain level of respect by somebody who knows precisely what they're up to. Always try to track down a gardener in the Winkleigh area who will do a good job and who can be trusted. The importance of this cannot be stressed enough, when certain shrubs and trees are involved. Take your time and get a proper Winkleigh gardener.
The thing about gardening is that there are always jobs that need doing routinely, even on small gardens. It is essential to get these jobs done even more frequently when spring and then summer arrives. The list of the most common gardening jobs will come as no surprise and includes the likes of general cleaning, hedge cutting, lawn mowing and weeding. It is likely that your gardener will also help you with driveway cleaning, fence repairs, decking installation and waste removal.
How much you pay depends on who you hire, the hourly rate for a professional gardener will be at least £20, while you might get away with £10 - £15 if you take a chance on that "guy down the road". Most Winkleigh gardeners will not want to do just one hours work. Many gardeners might even insist on a minimum visit time of at least two hours or so. This is understandable when you factor in travelling time, loading/unloading, and waste disposal.
Asking for money up front is not normal for gardeners (unlike builders), so be extra careful if they do. However this could legitimately happen with bigger jobs like fencing or decking where money for materials is required. Once the work is completed, it's not unusual for the gardener to ask for payment in cash rather than a cheque. No matter what form of payment you agree on, be sure to get a receipt so there are no arguments later on.
Be transparent about your requirements before any work begins, give the gardener a rota of tasks that you would like to be done. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. If there is going to be a lot of waste produced by your gardener, double check they he/she will take it away afterwards.
Though usually a gardener will bring along a flask or bottle of water, it is nice to offer him/her a cup of tea while working hard on your garden. Treating your gardener well could easily result in you getting some extra work done at no additional charge. 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. Do not take this to the extreme however, and impede their work with constant babbling, they may become frustrated and not do a proper job.
