Key checks for gardener

  • Agree visit frequency and seasonal work.
  • Check green-waste handling.
  • Ask which materials and equipment are included.

Write a seasonal maintenance brief

List the routine tasks you need and which areas matter most. Explain access, green-waste storage and any plants requiring particular care. Ask whether the gardener supplies equipment and how weather or seasonal changes affect the visit plan.

Review after the first visits

Compare the agreed tasks with what is achievable in the time booked. Discuss adjustments openly if growth, weather or additional work changes the workload. Planting or construction projects should have their own scope rather than being added silently to a regular maintenance visit.

Before you book or buy

  • Agree visit frequency and seasonal work.
  • Check green-waste handling.
  • Ask which materials and equipment are included.
