Ongar Gardening & Landscaping Services

Finding a Gardener in Ongar: 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's often easy to just bring in the "geezer down the street" who does odd jobs and gardening on the side, but think carefully, would a proper gardener be a better choice? Whilst a professional gardener might not necessarily have qualifications he/she will likely know considerably more than that "guy down the street".

Gardener Ongar Essex

Whether your garden is large or small, there will always be jobs that need attending to on a routine basis. Such routine jobs will need attention more frequently at certain times of the year, in particular spring and summer. Commonly grass cutting, hedge cutting, general tidying and weeding are the gardening tasks that people in Ongar need done. There are plenty more jobs that might need doing for example fence repairs, cleaning driveways, patio installation and waste removal, most Ongar gardeners will also be willing to tackle these.

Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "geezer down the road" may be happy to charge £10 to £15 an hour, a figure of £20 per hour is more usual for professionals. One hour in your garden is not very much and the average gardener will need to spend more time than that to get much done. It would not be that unusual for a gardener to have a minimum visit time of 2 to 3 hours. 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.

Be wary of "gardeners" who ask for payment in advance, no genuine Ongar gardener would do this. It is not unusual for gardeners to ask for payment in cash, but only after the work is done. No matter what form of payment you agree on, be sure to get a receipt so there are no arguments later on.

Be clear about your expectations from the very beginning, prepare a list of work you need doing. The layout of your garden is something any decent gardener will be able to help you with, they will know which plants perform best where, don't be scared to ask for guidance. The removal of the waste that has been generated isn't something that all gardeners are prepared to do, make sure that yours does.

Gardening is thirsty work, so don't forget to make a hot or cold drink for your gardener to keep his/her spirits up. Gardeners are appreciative of gestures like this and will no doubt reward you by doing the best possible job. 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. However, avoid incessant prattling which will only annoy the gardener and impede his/her progress.
