Finding a Gardener in Burton: If your Burton 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. That help should come in the shape of a professional Burton gardener with a bit of experience, and not the "chap down the street" who knocks on your door and offers to jet wash your patio. Whilst formal qualifications are not a requirement for gardeners, a professional is likely to have a wider range of knowledge than that "guy down the road" and will have a reputation to uphold.
It should certainly go without saying that any gardener you hire should be informed enough to care for your garden and the contents within it. Always try to track down a gardener in the Burton area who will do a good job and who can be trusted. This will be even more critical for those of you with trees and shrubs in your garden. Avoid settling for any old chancer, find yourself a decent gardener.
There is a seemingly endless list of jobs to be done in the garden, even if it is relatively small. In spring and summer you should organise more frequent gardener visits as the jobs that need doing increase. While the jobs that people in Burton need doing in their gardens are many and varied the most common are mowing lawns, hedge trimming, general cleaning and weeding. Many gardeners will also be happy to take care of jobs like cleaning driveways, patio installation, fence repairs and waste removal
While that "chap down the street" might quote you ten to fifteen pounds an hour to "do" your garden, an experienced gardener will come at a considerably higher price (£20 per hour maybe). Most Burton gardeners will not want to do just one hours work. It is often not worth their while to do much less than two hours gardening at a time. 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.
Asking for money up front is not normal for gardeners (unlike builders), so be extra careful if they do. Paying a deposit for materials might be appropriate for bigger jobs like garden fencing. Once the work is completed, it's not unusual for the gardener to ask for payment in cash rather than a cheque. Insist on getting a receipt especially where cash is involved, this will avoid any disputes about unpaid work later on.
A list of required tasks will help your gardener to plan his/her day, clearly lay out you exact requirements at the start. Your gardener will be there to give you advice and guidance on any aspect of your garden, so make the most of his/her knowledge. 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. Unless you want to keep it for your compost heap.
It doesn't hurt to offer your gardener a drink during their toils, after all gardening is thirsty work. This is always appreciated by gardeners and they will repay you by doing an extra fine job. In order to benefit from his/her knowledge and to keep a friendly rapport going, pop out for a chat now and again. Occasionally is the key word with this approach however, don't hold them up by standing over them and nattering all day long.
