Getting Help With Your Garden

Getting Help With Your Garden – If you are old, disabled, lazy or just too busy you may find it hard to keep up with your garden maintenence. Especially at this time of the year the garden can get overgrown pretty quickly. Once your lawn gets to a certain length it can become difficult to trim with a standard lawn mower. Maybe the time has come to call in a local gardener to help you with the major tasks. Sometimes it is enough just to get a gardener to get your garden straight just the once and then it becomes easier to keep it in order. But if you don’t think you will be able to give it the attention it needs then booking in regular visits by a gardener is a better idea. Discuss with your gardener how often your garden needs doing to keep it in good order, for some people it may be once a week, for others it might be once a fortnight or even once a month, though grass and weeds can grow pretty quickly in the summertime when rain followed by warm weather provides ideal growing conditions for these plants. A garden that is properly looked after is a blessing and you can get lots of pleasure from enjoying it and using it to its best advantage. It is nice to sit outside to have a cup of tea or even breakfast, when the weather is fine, and of course enjoy a barbeque. Summer barbeques are ever more popular in the UK and whenever the weather is fine there is a rush to the supermarket for all those burgers, sausages and chicken wings. Get the most from your garden and call in a gardener to look after it.

Garden Clearance Services – When you don’t have enough time to deal with your garden and it is starting to look a bit like a jungle, you might want to consider calling in a professional garden clearance service to help you out. Clearing your garden and getting rid of all the rubbish is not always the easiest thing to do, especially if you only have a family car to use. Proper garden clearance services use vans and trailers and can therefore clear much more rubbish than you would be able to with your car. They will also have all the proper tools to do the job and deal with any dangerous waste such as asbestos shed roofs and sharp metal fencing and barbed wire. Apart from the usual garden waste, these services will also take away old furniture, white goods and builders rubble. A decent garden clearance service will get your garden looking tidy and dispose of the rubbish ethically. This is important because local authorities now have the power to fine fly-tippers instantly without needing to go to court, this means getting a proper clearance specialist is best.

Time to Get Your Garden Straight

Time to Get Your Garden Straight – With the winter fading and the better weather arriving, it is a good time to start thinking about getting your garden straight. Bad weather, winter storms and months of neglect, may have left you garden looking somewhat dishevelled. With our busy working lives taking up most of our waking hours it is not always easy to find the time to spend on your garden, and even when you do it seems like 3 weeks later it lokks just as bad as before.

Perhaps you should start thinking about getting in a professional gardener to take over the hard work for you. Book on in for a regular visit and your garden should be looking in tip top shape before you know it. You can then spend your leisure time enjoying your garden rather than working on it. Ask a friend or family member to recommend a gardener, don’t just pick the first and cheapest one that comes along.

Many so called “gardeners” are not gardeners at all, just individuals trying to earn some pin money by mowing lawns, trimming hedges and clearing up dead leaves. If that is all you want done then fine, but it is better to employ a gardener who knows his stuff and can deal with problems as they arrive, having a knowledge of what will grow in your garden, what needs doing and when and understands the effects of the seasons and weather on your plants and green spaces.

Keeping your hedges in order is especially important, so keep them trimmed and neat during the spring and summer so that they are dense and compact and doing the job that they are meant to. Don’t forget to check for bird’s nests, you are not supposed to cut hedges when birds are nesting and breeding.
