Finding a Gardener in Crosshouse: 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. It is tempting to call on the "fellow down the road" who helps out your neighbour, or you could actually bring in a proper Crosshouse gardener. It is the job of any self-respecting gardener in Crosshouse to have the necessary knowledge to look after your garden, while that "bloke down the road" is just in it for a few quid on the side.
You need your cherished garden to be given a degree of respect by whoever is looking after it. So, your aim should be to find a gardener in the Crosshouse area who can be trusted to do a good job on your garden. This is particularly crucial when your garden contains shrubs and trees which require special attention. Avoid settling for any old chancer, find yourself a decent gardener.
The routine jobs which need doing in the garden are likely to be much the same regardless whether your garden is small or big. In spring and summer you should organise more frequent gardener visits as the jobs that need doing increase. While the jobs that people in Crosshouse need doing in their gardens are many and varied the most common are mowing lawns, weeding, general cleaning and hedge trimming. More involved tasks might include: laying patios, fence repairs, waste clearance and cleaning driveways.
Decent gardeners will come at a premium, so don't expect them to work for peanuts. Charges generally start at approximately twenty pounds per hour. Most Crosshouse gardeners will not want to do just one hours work. Visits spanning 2 to 3 hours are about the average for Crosshouse gardeners. This is not excessive if you consider that they have to drive to your house and back and might need to take your waste to the local rubbish tip, which could be miles away.
You should be suspicious of any gardener who demands payment in advance. An exception to this rule of thumb would be with more extensive tasks for example decking or fencing when being asked for a deposit for materials is quite normal. Don't be surprised if your gardener asks for cash payment, this isn't unusual, but of course only when the work is finished. Don't forget to ask for a receipt irrespective of if you pay by card, cheque or cash, having proof of payment prevents later quarrels.
Make out a list of gardening jobs that require attention and be transparent about your expectations before the work starts. Once your gardener starts you will have an expert at your fingertips, make the most of it and get plenty of advice and guidance. Taking away all the garden waste such as hedge clippings and lawn trimmings may not be included in the service, therefore you should establish whether your gardener will do this or not. Being left with large quantities of garden waste is something that you need to avoid.
It is customary to offer your gardener a hot or cold drink, though many bring their own refreshments. Keeping a gardener "sweet" with little acts of kindness like this may be repaid by increased efforts on their part. By having a quick chat with your gardener every once in a while, you can pick up some tips while also building a friendly rapport. Most gardeners will not however want you standing over them all day nattering.
Garden Clearance Crosshouse
While most gardeners will be willing to do a limited amount of garden clearance in Crosshouse, many of them will not hold a Waste Carrier's Licence, and will subsequently be restricted in the amount and type of waste they are able to take. If the levels of waste are modest they may be able to get rid of a lot of it using your local council garden waste bin (if you have got access to one).
Of course, many gardens in Crosshouse are stacked up with all kinds of junk, and not only green waste, so for this type of project you'll probably have to contact a licenced Crosshouse garden clearance expert. You could always consider renting a mini-skip if you have a largish amount of junk in your garden. Adopting this route will make it possible for you to maybe have a clear out in your garage, your shed and possibly even your loft space, along with your garden waste.
Essentially dead plants, turf, shrubs, twigs, dirt, lawn trimmings, hedge clippings, pruned branches, wood chippings and logs, will be thought of as "green" waste. (Tags: Waste Removal Crosshouse, Garden Clearances Crosshouse, Garden Clearance Crosshouse).
