Dunbar Landscaping & Gardening Services

Dunbar Gardeners: While it may be the case that not everybody in Dunbar has a garden that needs looking after - there are obviously lots who do, and for those property owners, keeping a garden in good condition can be a challenging task. Gardening is one of those things that we delay until another day but the truth is, gardens don't stay as they are, until we are ready, they only carry on growing and getting more out of control. As soon as you have made it tidy again, you must look after it to keep it looking like that, so regular visits by a decent Dunbar gardener will be necessary to keep it looking a picture.

Even if you have the time, and feel that you're good at doing the gardening, there will likely be occasions when you could do with a little help in your garden with a task which is outside of your comfort zone. You may possibly need a full design service from someone that is in the business, or it may just be a case of having the hard work of landscaping and the removal of materials in a garden which has become overgrown. Whatever your circumstances, locating a skilled gardener in Dunbar, to help save you time, effort and over time, cash, is a good move.

Understanding what flowers and plants will work with your garden positioning, soil type and most significantly your interest and time in gardening in general, is an element that your chosen Dunbar gardening professional can help you with. There is little point in planting and landscaping a garden, which can be very expensive, if six months down the line your lack of time or ability results in a view of dead flowers and overgrown weeds.

It's probably worthwhile to employ a professional gardener on a routine basis if you haven't got the time and energy to keep your garden properly maintained, but still wish to have garden you can take pride in and that can be enjoyed (which I guess is the aim of most homeowners in Dunbar).

Age UK Gardening Service: Age UK sometimes provide a gardening service for older householders in Dunbar, with DBS checked and approved tradespeople available. Just because this is a charity, don't assume that this service is free, in reality Age UK charge about Twenty to twenty five pounds per hour, which when compared with the gardening trade in general, can often be more expensive. General garden maintenance is the rule of thumb in relation to Age UK's gardeners service, and while things like:

  • Weeding.
  • Cutting Back.
  • Putting Down Compost.
  • General Tidying.
  • Lawn Mowing.
  • Potting.
  • Planting.
  • Sweeping Leaves.
  • Digging.
  • Trimming/Pruning.
...are included, projects like landscaping, tree surgery and waste removal aren't.

It's important that you understand the amount of hours that will be necessary to make sure your Dunbar garden is kept in in a reasonable condition, if you do decide to call in a professional gardener. Many folks in Dunbar apparently believe that one or two hours per week will be enough to keep a standard garden up to par, however this is unlikely in lots of circumstances. If you just worked upon your garden for a couple of hours per week you will quite quickly realize its beginning to look neglected and unkempt. When you're having a discussion with your gardener concerning how much time will be needed to accomplish a decent job, you will need to take into account the specialist equipment, abilities and work that is needed.

Even though qualifications aren't something that the majority of Dunbar gardeners will have, you may be lucky and bump into one that does. Qualifications they may have involve accreditation from the RHS (Royal Horticultural Society) which many budding gardeners can study for part-time while working and acquiring practical experience. To allow their workers to offer the best service possible to their clients, many professional gardening firms in and around Dunbar, offer opportunities to study for Level Two and Three City and Guilds qualifications while in their employ. Some wannabe gardeners in Dunbar will have started off in an apprenticeship, and again local companies will have given them this kick-start into gardening. Clearly for the most commonplace chores that you will need doing in your garden, such as weed control, grass cutting or hedge clipping, you won't need a gardener with qualifications.

Should Gardeners Have Insurance? - In case of accidents or damages, any competent gardener in Dunbar who's charging for their services should have some form of public liability insurance, to cover both themselves and their clients. You might be of a mind that someone engaged in a leisurely pursuit like gardening would not be particularly at risk of accidents, however the reality paints a somewhat different picture. Having to regularly deal with broken fencing, spikey shrubs and damaged branches can be pretty dangerous, as can the use of hedge clippers, chainsaws and secateurs.

I am sure that you will now appreciate why a good level of insurance is important for every professional Dunbar gardener, and why you should always ask for evidence of insurance before you even consider employing someone. It doesn't matter whether you are using a largish gardening company or a self-employed gardener in Dunbar, you still need to ensure that their public liability insurance is adequate for both accidents that befall them while they are working on your property and damage that they may cause to your home or premises. Most public liability policies for gardening will have roughly £1 mill to £5 mill worth of coverage.

Lawn Care Dunbar

Lawn Mowing Dunbar Scotland

The condition of the lawn is one of the first things that guests notice when visiting your property, therefore why not keep it in perfect shape by using a gardener or lawn care professional in Dunbar. A basic mowing of your lawn may involve different processes depending on the season (summer is shorter, winter requires a longer cut), what variety of grass you've got and what your lawn is used for. A lawn that's used as a kids play area may require a hard-wearing, longer grass than that for a formal, manicured lawn.

A routine mowing regimen by a specialist will make certain that regardless of what use you make of your lawn; it will maintain a healthy look in all weathers. A competent Dunbar lawn care company will also provide guidance on fertilising your lawn at different stages of the year, watering, and how to control any weeds or moss that may start to emerge. If you have a compost bin you can mix the clippings in for future use around your garden, or otherwise your lawn care contractor will remove and dispose of them properly at a certified green waste facility.

Brick BBQ's Dunbar

Brick Barbecues Dunbar Scotland

When the hot summer days finally arrive in Dunbar many of us think about spending a bit of time outside, and maybe inviting some friends or family round for a BBQ. Naturally, if it is the first time you've dragged out your barbecue since last year, you may find it is rusty, ramshackle and utterly useless for cooking on. Why don't you contact a bricklayer to build you your very own brick barbecue? There is a price to be paid for this luxury however, since the bricks and materials alone could set you back £200 - £300, and stitch this to the cost for labour and it's going to be a sizeable investment. Of course the upside is that your BBQ will always be standing there ready and waiting whenever it's needed, the winter weather will have hardly any impact on it, and your sturdy brick-built structure will look great and give excellent service for a considerable period of time.

Hard Landscaping Dunbar

Hard Landscaping Dunbar: What is frequently referred to as "hard landscaping" is the introduction of solid shapes which give structure and form to your garden. Fencing, fountains and decking are all thought of as "hard" landscaping, as are patios, driveways and paths, which are all made from "hard" building materials. Garden features made from plant related materials are classified as "soft landscaping", which includes lawns, shrubs, mulch and trees. To a degree garden furniture may also be termed as "hard landscaping". (Tags: Hard Landscaping Ideas Dunbar, Hard Landscaping Dunbar, Garden Hard Landscaping Dunbar)

Patio Cleaning Dunbar

You can clean your patio easily using bleach and water. A diluted solution of the substance will work well, but you should not apply it directly to the surface. The solution can damage the stone or discolour it. To avoid this, use non-staining deicing salt instead. Spring is a great time to clean your patio. Take the time to check joints, as well.

Before cleaning your patio, you must remove all furniture, plants, and other accessories. This is to avoid getting a muddy patio. Also, make sure to remove weeds. Then, use a pressure washer to clean away dirt and grime. Then, dry the patio furniture and put it back on the patio.

You can also use a vinegar solution to clean your patio. A vinegar solution is more effective than water and is safer to use compared to chemicals. A strong mixture of water and vinegar can be applied to your patio to remove dirt and grime. After the solution has been applied, you can rinse it off with a hose or pressure washer. If you want to clean the patio more thoroughly, you can use a bleach solution. However, this chemical can cause damage to plants and softer stone.

You can also use baking soda to remove organic stains. For instance, you can mix one cup of baking soda with one gallon of water and let it sit for 30 minutes. This solution will lift stains like dog urine or food splatter. Use a long-handled brush to apply the mixture to the affected areas. After twenty minutes, use a stiff brush to scrub off the remaining dirt. A local Dunbar gardener will be happy to do this for you, if you don't fancy cleaning your own patio.
