They can also cut back overgrowth, remove green waste and help with planting plans. For larger jobs, a gardener can assess the garden, plan a sequence of tasks and schedule follow up visits. Accurate quotes rely on garden size, current condition and the tasks you want completed. Note if there are large hedges, trees, heavy growth or access limits.
