> "Dick and Dora began the first stages of clearing up a very overgrown back garden that I was unable to cope with. When they left, four hours later, it looked like a film set with not a weed in sight; the bushes had been pruned back like sculptures, everything looked clean and perfect. The gravel centre of the garden had been pulled back and all weeds removed and put back in pristine order. This is the first time since I had the garden redesigned 30 years ago that it has looked so lovely and am thrilled to bits. More to be done and can't wait for their return."

## Before you hire a gardener
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade — general guidance, not a claim about this business:_
- Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour — a vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
- Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials' — agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
- Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated — protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
- Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
