Finding a Gardener in Hanwell: Calling in some outside help to get your bedraggled garden back into shape, isn't something to be ashamed of if you never seem to have enough time to do it yourself. Should you hire a professional Hanwell gardener or the "guy down the road" who does gardens cheap? Although there is no guarantee that a professional gardener will have any recognised horticultural qualifications, he/she will almost certainly have a great deal more gardening knowledge than that "fellow down the road" is going to have.
You do not want your precious garden to be spoilt by someone who doesn't have to knowledge to look after it properly. Therefore you should be careful that you choose a gardener in Hanwell who can be relied upon. Even if your garden has only run of the mill plants you will want them looked after correctly. Hire a professional gardener and never settle for second best.
Those monthly, fortnightly or even weekly gardening jobs are often necessary even if your garden is small. More frequent visits will be necessary in the spring and summertime and maybe none at all during the wintertime. The more commonplace place tasks that need doing in Hanwell gardens are likely to be hedge trimming, grass cutting, general cleaning and weeding. There are plenty more jobs that might need doing for example decking installation, driveway cleaning, fence repairs and waste clearance, most Hanwell gardeners will also be willing to tackle these.
Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "fellow down the street" may be happy to charge £10 to £15 an hour, a figure of £20 per hour is more usual for professionals. Don't expect miracles, especially on the first session, and count on it taking more than a single hour for your gardener to make much difference to the look of your garden. It is often not worth their while to do much less than two hours gardening at a time. This is understandable when you factor in travelling time, loading/unloading, and waste disposal.
It is not the norm for Hanwell gardeners to demand money up front, be very suspicious of anyone who does this. More involved tasks like fencing or decking can be considered an exception, since expensive materials need to be obtained and quite rightly a deposit will be requested. Payment in cash is not unusual for gardeners, though this will be requested after all work is completed and approved. To avoid the possibility of disputes in the future always ask your gardener for a receipt.
Be clear about your expectations from the very beginning, prepare a list of work you need doing. Make the most of having a specialist on hand and follow their guidance with regards to your choice of plants and shrubs. Not all gardeners like to take away the waste and lawn clippings, so check that yours does. You don't want to get left with a big pile of waste that you can't get rid of.
Gardening is thirsty work, so don't forget to make a hot or cold drink for your gardener to keep his/her spirits up. Considerations like this will always be appreciated and will often result in a better standard of work. In order to build a friendly rapport with your gardener and to pick their brains for gardening tips, go out for a natter from time to time. You should not however take this to the extreme, and stand there chattering all day long, which will only hold up your gardener and make the job take longer.
