They&#8217;ll also plant new vegetation (plants, flowers, shrubs) and remove any unwanted growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.co.uk\/services\/garden-work\/landscaping\">landscaper<\/a>, however, is more likely to consider the design of your space, with a focus on the structure and layout of your garden. They might also be able to do hardscaping and small outdoor building jobs like laying, edging, and installing decks and patios.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">There&#8217;s a lot of crossover, though, and many gardeners will offer both services. For this reason, it\u2019s always worth double-checking what your chosen garden professional can and can\u2019t do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><a id=\"factors\"><\/a>What factors impact the cost of gardening services in the UK?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">If you\u2019re outsourcing your garden maintenance to a professional and are in the process of exploring quotes, you may come across a large difference in cost and rates. We know that this can be confusing, but there are a few reasons for this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The two biggest cost factors are your location and the size of your garden. For instance, if you\u2019re based in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.co.uk\/locations\/london\/garden-work-removal\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Central London<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> and have a large garden, you\u2019ll be paying more compared to someone in a town with a small garden. In London, hourly gardening rates tend to be between \u00a33 and \u00a310 higher than those in the rest of the UK.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">It\u2019s also worth considering how much work your garden needs. Work at height will typically cost more due to the level of skill involved.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Summer is usually the busiest month for garden maintenance professionals because everyone wants to use their outdoor space when the weather is nice. With this in mind, you can expect to pay more for a specialist in summer when the demand is high.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Finally, the expertise and experience of the person you hire will also be reflected in the overall cost. The same goes for whether you choose a garden maintenance company or an individual. Garden maintenance companies typically cost more due to bigger overheads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">In a nutshell, the price you pay for gardening services usually depends on:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 300;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Your location<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 300;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The size of your garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 300;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">How much work the space needs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 300;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The exact gardening tasks<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 300;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Whether work at height is required<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 300;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The time of year<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 300;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Your gardening specialist&#8217;s experience and skills<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 300;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Whether the gardener is an individual or part of a company<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><a id=\"save\"><\/a>How to save money on gardening services<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">In comparison to other household services, gardening maintenance tends to be on the lower end of the cost scale \u2014 which is good news for you! However, we understand that it\u2019s important to save money where possible, so here\u2019s some advice to help you hold onto your pennies while receiving the best quality gardening support.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Decide on your budget early<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Once you\u2019ve done your research and have a better idea of garden maintenance specialist costs, it\u2019s helpful to decide on a set budget and stick to it as best as possible. This will reduce your risk of overspending or making impulse decisions when it comes to choosing a garden maintenance professional.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Discuss your budget and expectations with your chosen garden professional<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Your chosen garden professional is there to support you and get the job done, so it\u2019s always a good idea to discuss your expectations with one another. This means there will be no surprises for either party when it comes to payment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Make sure you outline your budget with your chosen garden professional and have a written agreement in place, detailing the exact tasks you need done and their agreed cost. It\u2019s also worth asking that the garden professional lets you know if they think anything might cost more than your budget. This is because it\u2019s quite common for an estimate to be given, and then upon further inspection, the task is bigger than either of you thought.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The result of being transparent with cost and expectations? A garden specialist with a clear idea of what needs to be done \u2014 and no scary extra spends for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Choose a few jobs to take on yourself<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">You may find that there are a few garden maintenance jobs that you\u2019re happy to take on yourself. Whether this be green waste disposal, strimming, or mowing, you\u2019ll probably find that this will save you some money. It also means your garden specialist can focus on the bigger, more strenuous jobs!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Make sure you check this with your chosen specialist, as some include the smaller garden jobs and clean-up services in their overall price.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><a id=\"frequency\"><\/a>How often should I hire a gardener?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">How often you hire a gardener is completely up to you. You may have a one-off project that you need help with, or you may wish to find someone to help with ongoing garden maintenance throughout the year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">If you\u2019d rather have someone come in regularly, then you may find that this works out cheaper in the long run. It\u2019s also a great way to build a trusted relationship between you and your gardener.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">It also depends on how overgrown your garden area is, so you may find that you need more help in the summer months when overgrown gardens are common.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">If you enjoy spending time in your garden and appreciate it looking lush, manicured, and full of wildlife, then a gardener can take the hard work off your shoulders. All you need to do is find the right person or company for the job, sit back, and reap the benefits!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><a id=\"find\"><\/a>Find a garden maintenance specialist today<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Ready to connect with a local garden professional to help you with your green spaces?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Use Taskrabbit to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.co.uk\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">find a gardener near you<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> and get help with everything from weeding and mowing to outdoor lighting installation and roof and gutter cleaning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><a id=\"faqs\"><\/a>Garden maintenance service and cost FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><b>What\u2019s included in a standard garden maintenance service?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Standard garden maintenance generally includes mowing the grass, trimming hedges, weeding, clearing leaves, and maintaining flower beds.

If it\u2019s only a small amount, then some garden maintenance professionals may be happy to dispose of your green waste for you. However, some may charge an additional fee for this service.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>How often should I schedule garden maintenance?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">For most gardens, a bi-weekly scheduled maintenance visit should do the job \u2014 even in the growing seasons of spring and summer.
