FAQs

How long will a garden tidy take for your property?
Timing depends on garden size, access and the amount of growth. Photos and measurements help the Gardener estimate the time required and plan the visit. If relevant, confirm how services will be isolated and when they will be restored.
Do gardeners use chemicals?
Some gardeners use treatments for weeds or lawns, while others prefer manual methods. If you have preferences, mention them early so the approach can be agreed. Share the age of the property, access, and what you want to change so the Gardener can plan the right approach.
Can you work around children and pets?
Yes, with clear instructions. Note any access restrictions and preferred working hours. The Gardener can plan tool placement and safety measures accordingly. It helps to note any existing issues, recent work, and the areas involved.
What should I include in my request?
Include the tasks, garden size, access, waste preferences and any fragile planting. Photos are helpful for overgrown areas. Clear details make it easier for the Gardener to assess the scope. Ask what is included, how long the work may take, and what happens if extra issues appear.
Can I combine maintenance with small landscaping jobs for your property?
Often yes. If you want both routine care and small improvements, list everything together so the Gardener can plan the work and materials. Photos and measurements can help the Gardener give clearer guidance.
Do I need to provide power?
Most garden work does not need power, but some tools may require it. If outdoor sockets are limited, mention it so the Gardener can plan accordingly. If relevant, confirm how services will be isolated and when they will be restored.
