About
Hello
My name is Greg I run gardening services called Your Gardener, my services include hedge trimming, tree pruning, lawn care, weeding, spraying, jet washing of patios, fences, driveways and general maintenance of gardens. Examples of what I do are shown in my pictures on the site.
Ideal would be a regular customer for whom I could provide services throughout the season with agreed price. Also I would be happy to do one off jobs. The business and most of my customers are based in Northampton but I travel up to 20 miles or more if I can get profit from that.
How much should you expect to pay a gardener for one-off garden maintenance.
The simple answer is ‘the same as any other tradesman’. Although you may not use a plumber or car mechanic every week, a gardener expenses are very high and the work is very labour intensive.
The running costs of a professional gardening business are just as high as any other professional tradesman - accountant, training, holidays, bad weather, costs of advertising, transport, vehicle maintenance, tools and tool maintenance. For example, it can cost as much to service a mower as it does to service a car. Prices for professional mower start from £700. A gardener may have more than one mower, plus many other petrol tools that need servicing, oil, fuel, lubricants and replacement parts.
The total average hourly rate can be between £30-£45 pounds an hour.
