Get My Free QuotesOne-Off Garden Work vs Regular Maintenance — Which Do You Need?
When contacting a gardener in Cobham, it's worth thinking about whether you need a one-off job or an ongoing relationship. A one-off clearance or tidy is ideal if the garden has become overgrown, if you're moving in or out of a property, or if you need a seasonal blitz ahead of an event. It's a defined piece of work with a clear start and end.
A regular maintenance contract suits homeowners who want the garden kept in good condition throughout the year but don't have the time or inclination to do it themselves. Fortnightly or monthly visits typically cover lawn mowing, hedge trimming, weeding, and seasonal tasks. Many gardeners in Cobham prefer regular clients and may offer a better overall rate for ongoing work.
Insurance — What Your Gardener Should Have
Public liability insurance is essential for any professional working in your garden. If a gardener accidentally damages your property — breaking a window with a strimmer, for example, or driving over an irrigation pipe — their public liability insurance covers the cost of putting it right. Without it, you could find yourself out of pocket.
For gardeners using powered equipment, employer's liability insurance is also required if they employ staff. For chemical application, additional certification (PA1/PA6) is required by law. Ask any gardener you are considering appointing to confirm their insurance cover before work begins, and don't be embarrassed to ask for evidence. A professional will not hesitate to provide it.
Garden Redesign
A garden redesign is a significant project — and one of the most rewarding, when done well. It typically begins with a consultation to understand how you use and want to use the space, followed by a design proposal covering layout, planting, hard landscaping, and any features such as water elements or seating areas.
A full redesign may involve clearing the existing garden, altering levels, installing new drainage, laying hard surfaces, building raised beds or retaining structures, planting trees and shrubs, and seeding or turfing new lawn areas. It requires a combination of horticultural knowledge, landscape design skill, and project management capability. For larger projects in Cobham, look for a BALI-registered landscaper or a garden designer with membership of the Society of Garden Designers (SGD).

What a Fair Gardening Quote Looks Like
A fair quote from a professional gardener in Cobham should be provided in writing for any significant piece of work, and should clearly set out what is included. For regular maintenance, this means the proposed scope of each visit, the frequency, and the price per visit or per month. For one-off work or projects, it means a full description of the work to be carried out, materials to be supplied, waste disposal arrangements, and the total price.
Be wary of verbal-only quotes for larger jobs, or written quotes that are vague about what is included. A common source of dispute in gardening is a disagreement over whether waste removal, plant materials, or equipment hire were included in the agreed price. A clear, detailed written quote protects both parties and is a sign of a professional approach.
