Frequently asked questions about gardeners
How much does a gardener cost per day?
Gardeners typically charge R250 to R600 per day in South Africa, depending on your area and the scope of work. Specialized work like tree felling or irrigation installation is quoted separately.
How often should I hire a gardener?
Most residential gardens need professional attention every two to four weeks during the growing season. Maintenance-only gardens can often be managed monthly during winter.
What tasks can a gardener handle?
Gardeners mow lawns, trim hedges, weed flower beds, rake leaves, plant seasonal flowers, and maintain irrigation systems. Experienced gardeners can also design planting schemes and handle light landscaping.
Do gardeners supply their own tools and equipment?
Most professional gardeners bring their own hand tools. For large equipment like lawnmowers and hedge trimmers, confirm who supplies them when booking — some gardeners supply all equipment, others prefer to use yours.
Can a gardener help with large tree removal?
Basic trimming and stump removal is within most gardeners' scope, but large tree felling or work near power lines requires a qualified arborist. Your gardener can usually recommend one.
How do I prepare my garden before the gardener arrives?
Unlock any access gates, remove toys or outdoor furniture from lawn areas, and leave clear instructions about which plants to keep versus trim. A brief walk-through on the first visit goes a long way.
