How it works

A clear brief helps gardeners price the work accurately and avoid surprises. Add timing preferences and note any fragile areas so the plan is clear.

  1. Outline the tasks and the areas to be worked on.
  2. Provide garden size, condition notes and access constraints.
  3. Review quotes and ask about equipment, disposal and timing.
  4. Book a gardener once the scope is agreed.
  5. Confirm access, water points and waste handling before the visit.

What gardeners can help with

Gardeners provide maintenance, clearance and planting services for gardens. Typical tasks include mowing, pruning, hedge trimming, weeding and removing waste. They can also tidy borders and prepare areas for planting. To keep quotes accurate, share garden size, condition and the tasks you want completed. Mention any access issues, heavy growth or large items to remove. If you need a regular visit plan, say so. Photos and a brief description of the garden make the scope clearer. You can ask for regular visits or a one-off tidy depending on growth and season. 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.

Use a short brief to outline the tasks, access and whether green waste should be removed or left on site. This makes it easier for a gardener to understand the job. Nearby areas can be included when details are clear. If you are flexible on timing, mention preferred days or time windows.

Why use Quotes By Trades

For most garden jobs, clarity matters more than speed. Share photos, measurements and any time windows so the Gardener can plan sensibly. It helps to agree what will be removed, what must stay, and whether materials are being supplied. A brief task list keeps expectations aligned and avoids surprises. You can also ask about quieter methods and tidy-up at the end.

FAQs

Should I choose turf or seed for a new lawn before work starts?
Both options can work well. Turf gives a quick finish, while seed is often cheaper and needs more time. The Gardener can advise based on soil condition, access and the time you have for establishment.
Can gardeners create or refresh borders?
Yes, many gardeners can tidy and re-shape borders, add compost and replant as needed. Share your preferences for colour, height and maintenance level so the Gardener can plan the work. Photos and measurements can help the Gardener give clearer guidance.
Do you do edge trimming around paths and lawns?
Edging and strimming are common tasks and help keep a garden tidy. If crisp edges are a priority, mention it in your request so the Gardener can allow time for it. If relevant, confirm how services will be isolated and when they will be restored.
Can you help with raised beds?
Gardeners can often tidy, refill or replant raised beds. If you need structural changes or new builds, say so clearly. Photos help the Gardener understand the current condition. Share the age of the property, access, and what you want to change so the Gardener can plan the right approach.
What about pruning fruit trees before work starts?
Light pruning can be done by a gardener, but older or larger fruit trees may need specialist attention. Provide details on tree size and access so the right level of help can be arranged. It helps to note any existing issues, recent work, and the areas involved.
Can you plant a new hedge?
Yes, hedge planting is common. Explain the length, plant type if known and the finish you want. The Gardener can advise on timing and preparation. Ask what is included, how long the work may take, and what happens if extra issues appear.
