Find a Compliant GardenerWhat to Look for When Hiring a Gardener in Arundel
Finding a reliable, skilled gardener is about more than finding the lowest price. You're inviting someone into your outdoor space on a regular basis, and it's important to find someone whose approach and communication style works for you, as well as someone with the horticultural knowledge to look after your garden properly.
Look for a gardener who is willing to discuss your garden's needs in detail before starting, who is insured for public liability, and who can demonstrate a track record of similar work. For larger or more complex projects — patios, planting schemes, pond installation — look for relevant qualifications or membership of a professional body such as BALI. Our vetted listings in Arundel can give you a solid starting point.

Patio and Decking Installation
A well-laid patio or decking area extends your usable outdoor living space and adds to the value and enjoyment of your Arundel home. Patio installation involves careful preparation of the sub-base, laying on a suitable mortar bed, and jointing — done properly, a patio should last for many years without sinking, cracking, or allowing weeds to penetrate.
Decking requires sound structural support, appropriate timber specification (hardwood or pressure-treated softwood), and correct gapping for drainage and movement. Both surfaces require planning in terms of drainage gradients to prevent water pooling against the house. A professional landscaper or gardener with hardscaping experience will manage all of these details and deliver a finished result that is both functional and attractive.

Seasonal Demand and Pricing
Gardening is a seasonal trade, and demand peaks sharply in spring — from late March through May — when lawns need their first cuts of the year, hedges are ready for attention, and homeowners want their gardens looking good ahead of summer. During this period, experienced gardeners in Arundel are in high demand, and lead times for new customers can stretch.
If you're planning gardening work, booking in advance — particularly for spring clearances or the start of a maintenance contract — gives you a better chance of securing your preferred provider at a time that suits you. Some gardeners offer slightly better rates for work that can be scheduled in quieter periods, such as autumn and winter tidies. Ask when you enquire whether scheduling flexibility affects the price.
Gardening FAQs — Timescales and Scheduling
For regular maintenance starting in spring, booking in January or February gives you the best choice of available gardeners in Arundel. Spring is the peak enquiry period, and popular gardeners often fill their regular slots quickly. For one-off work, a few weeks' notice is usually sufficient outside the spring peak.
This depends entirely on the size and condition of the garden. A small, moderately overgrown suburban garden might be cleared in a day; a large, badly neglected plot could take several days or a week. Your gardener will be able to give you an estimate after a site visit, along with advice on how to manage the waste.
A straightforward patio installation for an average garden typically takes two to four days, depending on the size, the complexity of the sub-base preparation, and the materials used. Larger or more complex projects — irregular shapes, multiple levels, drainage requirements — will take longer. Your landscaper will provide a programme with their quote.
Yes — many types of garden work are well-suited to winter, including hard landscaping, tree and shrub pruning, and garden clearance. Planting of bare-root trees and hedging is best done in winter while plants are dormant. Avoid hard landscaping in prolonged frost, as mortar and jointing compounds may not cure correctly in freezing temperatures.
