Finding a Gardener in Birkenhead: If your Birkenhead garden is in need of some attention and nobody in your household is willing to tackle it, don't be afraid to ask for a little help and assistance. It is tempting to call on the "guy down the road" who helps out your neighbour, or you could actually bring in a proper Birkenhead gardener. Whilst a professional gardener might not necessarily have qualifications he/she will likely know considerably more than that "bloke down the road".
Everyone likes their garden to be looked after properly and by a gardener who knows his/her stuff. So take care to track down a local Birkenhead gardener who can be trusted to do a decent job. When you have a garden containing trees and shrubs needing expert care, this is even more important. Don't settle for any old gardener, get a decent one.
Even if your garden is relatively small, there are a handful of jobs which need attending to on a routine basis. Such routine jobs will need attention more frequently at certain times of the year, in particular spring and summer. The most common jobs that people with gardens need doing in Birkenhead are hedge cutting, lawn mowing, general tidying and weeding. It isn't unusual for professional Birkenhead gardeners to help you out with waste removal, driveway cleaning, decking installation and garden fencing.
Expect to shell out something like £20 per hour for hiring the expertise of a professional gardener, the "fella down the road" will be a bit cheaper. One hours work is not enough to make much impression on your garden, so you should reckon on them needing to spend more time than this. It is often not worth their while to do much less than two hours gardening at a time. When you take into consideration travelling time, getting equipment on and off the van, and going to the local tip with your garden waste, this is understandable.
Payment in advance is not something that gardeners usually ask for, so be cautious if your gardener requires this. An exception might be when a large job is involved such as hard landscaping when some money up front may be asked for. It is quite normal for a gardener to request cash payment, rather than card or cheque, so make sure you have some to hand. To avoid the possibility of disputes in the future always ask your gardener for a receipt.
Before the gardener gets to work on your garden make sure he or she is clear about your requirements, a list of expected tasks might help. Don't be afraid to ask for advice, your gardener is the best person to tell you which plants are best for your garden. Check that your gardener will remove any waste such as lawn trimmings and branches, some do not.
Spare a thought for your gardener toiling away on your property with no facilities at hand. Offer them the use of your toilet and perhaps provide a drink. Gardeners are appreciative of gestures like this and will no doubt reward you by doing the best possible job. So that you can forge a friendly relationship with your gardener it is often a nice idea to pop out for a chat now and again. This also helps you to gain some additional gardening knowhow and useful tips. Most gardeners will not however want you standing over them all day nattering.
