Finding a Gardener in Verwood: If your garden is looking overgrown and untidy you should think about calling in some help if you don't have the inclination or time to tackle it on your own. Think carefully before you hire someone because lots of people in Verwood do gardening, some are professional gardeners and some just dabble. The problem is that "geezer down the road" will probably know very little about gardening, whereas a professional will have a wide spectrum of knowledge.
Everyone likes their garden to be looked after properly and by a gardener who knows his/her stuff. Therefore you should take your time in finding a gardener in the Verwood area who can be trusted. When you have a garden containing trees and shrubs needing expert care, this is even more important. Don't settle for second best, get a professional 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. It is essential to get these jobs done even more frequently when spring and then summer arrives. People with gardens in Verwood most often want jobs done like lawn mowing, hedge trimming, weeding and general cleaning. It is likely that your gardener will also help you with laying patios, cleaning driveways, repairing fences and waste removal.
Professional gardeners do not of course come cheap and while the "fellow down the road" may be happy to charge £10 to £15 an hour, a figure of £20 per hour is more usual for professionals. Depending on the state of your garden it is likely that your gardener will need more than just one hour to make an impression. You might find that your gardener will not be interested in visits of less than two hours. It is not just a case of working on your garden, they need to allow for travelling time and visits to the local rubbish tip.
Give short shrift to any Verwood gardener who expects to be paid up front before doing any work. An exception can be made when a big project like fencing or decking is involved, and lots of materials have to be purchased. It isn't uncommon for a gardener to ask to be paid in cash, though only after the gardening work is completed to your satisfaction. No matter if you pay your gardener with cheque, cash or card, ask for a receipt, you don't want any disputes or arguments about payments down the road.
Don't just leave them to get on with it, make sure your explain your exact requirements before they start. Your gardener is there to help you, so if you have any doubts about plants or their positioning, ask for advice. Some gardeners are not willing to dispose of all your garden waste, ensuring that yours will do this should be a priority. This garden waste can build up and at some point you are going to need to get rid of it.
It is polite to offer your gardener a drink or two throughout the day, they can build up quite a thirst with all that hard graft. Gardeners are appreciative of gestures like this and will no doubt reward you by doing the best possible job. By chatting with your gardener you can start to establish a friendly relationship, this should enable you to immerse yourself in their ideas and soak up some of their gardening knowledge. In doing this, don't prevent them from getting on with their work, because this will make the job take longer and cost you more money in the long run.
