Finding a Gardener in Stanley: If you cannot spare the time to tackle your tired and dreary garden, you should not be reluctant to bring in some outside help to knock it back into shape. Now you could call in a proper Stanley gardener or you could try the "guy down the street". The problem is that "chap down the road" will probably know very little about gardening, whereas a professional will have a wide spectrum of knowledge.
You certainly want a gardener who will treat your garden with respect and not cause it any harm or damage. So, your main objective must be to find a trustworthy Stanley gardener who has a reputation for doing an excellent job. This will be even more critical for those of you with trees and shrubs in your garden. Don't make do with any old rubbish, track down a proper 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. During spring and summer such gardening jobs need attending to more frequently. The more commonly required jobs that need doing in Stanley gardens are lawn mowing, weeding, hedge cutting and general tidying. It is unlikely that your gardener will refuse tasks such as waste removal, patio installation, driveway cleaning and repairing fences.
While that "guy 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). You may find that your gardener will not be prepared to put in just an hours work. Most will want to put in at least 2 to 3 hours at a time to make it worth their while. This is not greed or stretching the job out, but simply making allowances for travel, unloading and waste removal when necessary.
Steer clear of gardeners who request payment in advance. If your gardener asks to be paid in cash after the job is complete, this is not something to be worried about and is normal within the trade. To avoid the possibility of disputes in the future always ask your gardener for a receipt.
Make certain the gardener knows what your expectations are for your garden, job lists can help make everything clearer. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. Grass cuttings and hedge clippings can be a pain to get rid of, so make certain that your gardener includes the disposal of these as part of the service. It is unfair to leave you with piles of garden waste.
Gardening is thirsty work, so don't forget to make a hot or cold drink for your gardener to keep his/her spirits up. Acts of kindness such as this will make your gardener feel appreciated and he or she will work all the harder for it. Having a friendly rapport with your gardener is also important, so chat with them on a regular basis, discuss plans and bounce ideas off each other. Constant interruptions should however be avoided.
