Finding a Gardener in Botley: When your Botley garden starts looking rather droopy and under the weather, it is either time to get your gardening togs on or time to call in some expert help. Now, some Botley people choose to fetch in a professional gardener while others plump for the "bloke down the street" who tinkers around with gardens. Generally speaking that "bloke down the street" will have very little gardening knowledge, while any self-respecting Botley gardener be bursting with horticultural expertise.
You certainly don't want your cherished garden to be in any way mistreated by an ignorant or uninformed "gardener" who is just in it for a buck. Always try to track down a gardener in the Botley area who will do a good job and who can be trusted. Some plants and trees need special care, in which case this is even more important. Don't settle for second best, get a professional gardener.
Routine maintenance is the key with all gardens, whether small or large, with a seemingly endless list of jobs to do. You will need to book in more regular visits by your gardener in the spring and summer as these jobs pile up. The more commonplace place tasks that need doing in Botley gardens are likely to be weeding, general tidying, mowing lawns and hedge trimming. The majority of Botley gardeners will also be more than happy to deal with bigger tasks like cleaning driveways, waste clearance, garden fencing and laying patios.
Experienced gardeners don't come cheap and if you are being charged around £20 per hour, that is about average. 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. 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.
Give short shrift to any Botley gardener who expects to be paid up front before doing any work. You might however expect to pay a deposit for materials with larger tasks such as hard landscaping. Quite often a gardener will ask to be paid in cash once the work is complete and that is of course fine. You don't want any arguments about payment in the future, so be sure to get a receipt.
Giving a clear understanding of just what needs doing before work begins, will better help your gardener meet your expectations. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. Some gardeners are not willing to dispose of all your garden waste, ensuring that yours will do this should be a priority.
Remember to keep the gardener supplied with drinks if you are around while the gardening is being done. Your gardener will be grateful for such kindness. Try to have a regular dialogue with your gardener, during which you can swap ideas, gain some knowledge and forge a friendly rapport at the same time. Don't stand there all day twittering on however, which only results in a frustrated gardener and an incomplete garden.

If only minimal volumes of waste are involved it may be feasible to dispose of most of it by making use of your council green waste bin (if you've got access to one), otherwise you'll need some extra help.
