When it may need urgent attention
Gardening is rarely an emergency, but overgrown hedges over a public path or branches resting on cables or roofs should be dealt with promptly. Anything touching overhead power lines needs the network operator, not a gardener.
Before you book
- Say whether you want a one-off tidy or regular visits, and how often.
- Mention access: side gates, parking, and whether green waste can be left or must be taken away.
- Check for nesting birds before hedge cutting in spring and summer — disturbing active nests is an offence.
Qualifications and safety
Taking garden waste away is waste removal, so the business should hold a waste carrier registration. Tree surgery and work at height on large trees is specialist work beyond normal gardening.
How Mendnex helps
Property managers can use the same gardener across several properties and log each visit as a job, so there's a record of when each garden was last done. Mendnex only matches your job to contractors who list gardening and cover your postcode. You choose who to go ahead with.
