Hughenden Gardening & Landscaping Services

Finding a Gardener in Hughenden: 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. It's often easy to just bring in the "fellow down the road" who does odd jobs and gardening on the side, but think carefully, would a proper gardener be a better choice? Whilst formal qualifications are not a requirement for gardeners, a professional is likely to have a wider range of knowledge than that "chap down the road" and will have a reputation to uphold. At the end of the day you will have to choose.

The thing with gardens is that the jobs that need doing are routine, the same things need doing perhaps weekly, fortnightly or monthly. It is essential to get these jobs done even more frequently when spring and then summer arrives. The more commonly required jobs that need doing in Hughenden gardens are hedge pruning, general tidying, grass cutting and weeding. The majority of Hughenden gardeners will also be more than happy to deal with bigger tasks like waste removal, laying patios, repairing fences and driveway cleaning.

The rates charged by professional gardeners varies widely but if you are paying an hourly rate of about £20, that is reasonable. 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. Many gardeners might even insist on a minimum visit time of at least two hours or so. 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.

It should never be necessary to pay your gardener in advance of doing the work, give short shrift to anybody who asks for this. Quite often a gardener will ask to be paid in cash once the work is complete and that is of course fine. Having proof of payment is essential to avoid quarrels about unpaid bills, so make sure you get a receipt.
