What is the job of a Gardener?

Gardeners are responsible for creating, designing, maintaining and managing gardens, parks and green spaces.

Common tasks include pruning trees, shrubs and hedges, mowing and cutting grass and lawns, looking after plants and flowers, managing irrigation systems, as well as a range of other grounds maintenance tasks.

A gardener’s job is to provide plants with the appropriate seasonal care they require to remain healthy and vigorous. To do so, gardeners require a knowledge of plant reproduction, transplantation and cultivation techniques (e.g. for lawns, hedges, shrubs and ornamental plants). They should also be able to recognise pests and parasites and other common plant illnesses and take appropriate control measures, using equipment and chemical or natural products, where necessary.

Why do I need to hire a professional gardener?

1. Enjoy Your Garden

Looking after a garden requires a great deal of commitment, with even the smallest of gardens requiring several hours of outdoor labour each week to keep them in great shape. Hiring a professional gardener releases you of this responsibility and provides you with more spare time to focus on other things. Even if you like to do a little gardening yourself, with the bulk of the hard work taken care of you will be able to spend more time simply relaxing in your garden and enjoying it.
2. Affordable

Enhance The Appearance Of Your Home A smart looking garden with healthy plants, pruned trees, mowed lawns and neatly trimmed shrubs enhances the appearance of your home and conveys the right impression. In addition to maintaining the existing plants and layout of your garden, a professional gardener will have the skills and creativity to help you make changes and improvements to the external areas and landscaping around your home to make your home look even more attractive and desirable.

3.Rolling With The Seasons

We tend to focus the most attention on our gardens during the spring and summer months when the weather prompts us to get outside to enjoy them and this external space becomes an extension of our usual relaxing and socialising areas. With a great gardener taking care of your garden throughout each season; keeping on top of the maintenance, weeds, fallen leaves and spring planting your garden will look incredible all year round and ready when spring arrives.
4. Specialist Jobs

Overzealous pruning can cause irreparable damage to some trees and shrubs. With an expert to take care of your plants and trees, they will always look great and will reach their full potential.

5. In-depth Knowledge

It can be incredibly frustrating to see the plants you have purchased struggle or fail in the garden. With your own private expert to rely on you will no longer have to experience this problem because with their skills and guidance your plants will thrive and bloom. Sometimes it is simply a case of the wrong soil type, slope angle or position. Your gardener will resolve these sorts of issues and those who are keen to learn some gardening tips can pick up a wealth of useful information along the way.
6. General Maintenance

Driveways, decking areas, paths and pergolas all require periodic maintenance to keep them looking their best. Your gardener will ensure that all of these types of jobs are taken care of, extending the lifespan of the various materials and features in your external spaces.

7. Have You Always Wanted A Kitchen Garden?

With your own expert to hand, you have a great opportunity to get a productive kitchen garden up and running. Producing your own fruit, vegetables, herbs and salads is wonderfully rewarding and you cannot get your produce any fresher or faster than direct from the soil to the table.
8. Yearning For a Neatly Manicured Lawn?

A neatly trimmed green lawn, free of any weeds or bald patches is not easy to achieve. Handing this task over to a professional guarantees perfection and before you know it you will have a beautifully striped, immaculate lawn much to the envy of your neighbor's!
