How do I know if the job has been done well?

- Absence of visible weeds in beds and lawns.
- Healthy, correctly pruned plants according to their species requirements.
- Overall tidiness, including managed fences and larger trees, if applicable.

Other garden maintenance FAQs
How often should a gardener come?

Do gardeners bring their own lawnmowers?
Most professional gardeners will bring their own equipment, including lawnmowers, to each job. However, this should be confirmed with your gardener beforehand.

I started as a landscaper at 14 in my holidays, I continued it while I was a student. I stopped this when I turned 20, In 2014 I returned to this and built a team of guys, doing large landscaping jobs and even moved into multi trade work organising plumbers, electricians and joiners to tackle houses while I was doing slabbing and managing, 50 gardens. I took a break from this a few years ago and now I have a new run specialising in maintenance with over 50 Gardens. I will still look at fences and clean ups etc, depends on what's in the diary of course.
Top notch guys.. very accommodating. Job well done..!!
