What gardeners can help with

Gardeners handle a wide range of gardening tasks, from routine maintenance to full clearances. This includes mowing, hedge trimming, pruning, weeding and waste removal. For larger projects, a gardener can survey the garden, measure key areas and confirm suitable options. Provide the garden size, condition and task list, plus any access issues. If you need matching plants or specific materials, include those details. Photos and measurements help keep quotes accurate and comparable. If materials are needed, say whether you want the Gardener to supply them or use items you provide. Clear scope and photos help the Gardener estimate time, tools and disposal. If you have deadlines or preferred time windows, include them in the brief. Let the Gardener know if you want advice on seasonal timing.
