Robert
James was responsive to our request for a quote, for felling a large ash tree we suspected had died. He replied to messages quickly, turned up when he said he would, and was correct that our tree had in fact died. James was professional the whole time and we would have no hesitation in hiring and recommending him to others in the future.

Gardening services
What can a gardener help with?
If you’re looking for someone to take care of your garden property maintenance tasks, such as trimming shrubs or getting your lawn mowed, then you’ll need the help of a gardener.
If, on the other hand, you want to upgrade your garden by getting a new patio, deck or pergola installed, then you’ll need the services of a garden landscaper.
| Jobs gardeners can do | Jobs garden landscapers can do |
| Planting, pruning and weed control | Laying decking or paving |
| Lawn care and lawn treatments | Laying new artificial grass or Astro turf |
| Hedge trimming or hedge cutting (removal) | Adding a water feature |
| Pressure washing outdoor spaces | Adding a pergola or trellis |
| Installing soil irrigation or drainage | Installing a fence, gate or garden wall |
| General garden maintenance | Garden design |
Gardeners tend to be busier during the summer months when the weather’s good and everyone’s spending more time outdoors. It’s a good idea to hire your gardener before the summer rush. You’ll be more likely to get a better rate for the work if you do.
If you know you’ll need their services regularly, you can also hire a gardener to carry out repeat gardening work like lawn mowing. Some gardeners may also offer deals for repeat work, so make sure to ask.
If you’re looking to improve your home’s kerb appeal by getting a new driveway installed, then you’ll need the help of a driveway specialist. Or, if you need tree services such as a tree removal, then contact a local tree surgeon.

How much do gardeners cost to hire?
![Illustration of two houses with gardens with labels showing how much different garden landscaping projects cost to complete]](https://www.ratedpeople.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto/https://rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com/assets/2023/10/18201315/image-1024x322.png)
The cost of gardening services can vary based on several factors:
- The size of your garden: Larger gardens generally require more time and effort, and therefore cost more to maintain and upgrade
- Your location: Where you live in the UK has an impact on labour costs
- Your choice of materials: If you plan to use premium plants or materials, this will have an impact on the overall cost
The average cost of garden landscaping projects in 2023 is:
- Between £1,500 and £15,000 for a garden deck
- Between £1,100 and £7,200 for a garden patio
- Between £1,000 and £5,200 for a garden fence
Or, if you’re looking to hire a gardener, you can expect to pay between £25 and £40 an hour, depending on where you live in the UK.

What should I consider when hiring a gardener?
It’s really important that you choose a reliable gardener or garden landscaping company to carry out work on your garden. Failing to do this can result in stress and expensive repairs.
Before you hire, you should do your research to ensure that your tradespeople:
- Are an experienced company with a strong history of successful projects
- Have all the necessary licenses and insurance needed to protect you and their workers
- Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability
- Are offering the garden services you need, and are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it by

We cannot rate Bailey of Taylor'd Landscaping highly enough. Our large eucalyptus tree had fallen onto our neighbours' garden during Storm Darragh.
