About Gardener
Contracts, Guarantees, and Cancellation
Regular visits need a short written agreement covering scope, frequency, price, and notice period. A 30 day cancellation term is standard. One-off jobs need a fixed quote, not an estimate. Ask what happens if plants die after pruning. A responsible gardener will replace clearly damaged stock at no cost.
Tools and Machinery You Should See
Expect a professional to bring sharp, well-kept tools: shears, secateurs, loppers, a leaf blower, and a mower with a grass collector. For larger work they may use a strimmer, hedge cutter, or scarifier. Dull blades tear the grass and damage plants, so ask when tools were last sharpened.
Choosing Between a Solo Gardener and a Company
Solo gardeners usually charge less per hour but may lack insurance, backup staff, or machinery for big jobs. Companies bring teams, public liability cover, and replacement workers if someone is sick. For a single small garden, a solo pro is often enough. For large or multi-visit contracts, a company gives more reliability.
Common Problems and How to Avoid Them
Lawn scalping happens when mower blades sit too low. Yellow patches often mean overwatering or poor drainage. Hedge dieback follows repeated cuts into old wood. Agree on cut heights, watering rules, and which plants should not be touched. A simple walk-through at the start prevents most disputes later.
What to Check Before Hiring
Ask for proof of public liability insurance, a tax registration number, and 2 references from the last 6 months. Confirm what equipment they bring and what they expect you to provide. Make sure water access and electricity are agreed on in advance to avoid awkward pauses on site.
Red Flags When Talking to a Gardener
Be careful if the gardener avoids giving a written quote, has no insurance, pressures you into large deposits over 30 percent, or cannot name past clients. Vague answers about chemicals, pruning cuts, or watering depth also signal inexperience. Trust grows when answers are specific and grounded in practice.
Tools and Machinery You Should See
Expect a petrol or electric mower, hedge trimmer, strimmer, spade, fork, secateurs, loppers, and a wheelbarrow. For larger jobs, a leaf blower or chipper speeds up work. Tools should be clean and sharp. Dull blades tear grass and leave brown tips, which weakens the lawn over time.
How Often Should the Garden Be Maintained
Most home gardens need 1 visit every 2 weeks during the growing season and 1 monthly visit in winter. Lawns grow faster in spring and may need mowing every 5 to 7 days. Frequency should be set in the contract, with a clear rule for weather delays or skipped weeks.
Waste Removal and Clean-Up
Green waste should be removed on the same visit unless you keep it for composting. Branches over 5 cm thick usually require chipping or a separate haul. Ask whether disposal is included in the quote or charged per cubic metre. Leaving bags of clippings on site is a frequent complaint.
What to Check Before Hiring
Ask for proof of public liability insurance, a business address, and references from 2 recent clients. Check that they handle green waste removal responsibly. Confirm they carry their own tools and safety gear. A short trial visit of 1 to 2 hours helps you judge punctuality, quality, and care for plants.
