📅 When to Book a Gardener in Aberdeen
Gardening work peaks from March to October. The busiest months are April–May (spring planting and clearance), July–August (maintenance), and October–November (autumn clearance and winter preparation). Booking regular maintenance in February for the year ahead often secures better rates.
In Scotland, peak demand periods are: heating-related work (September–April), outdoor/structural work (May–August), and emergency call-outs (November–March). Harsh winters with extended heating seasons. Properties need to withstand wind, rain, and frost for 6+ months. Pipe lagging and frost protection are essential, not optional.
📋 Certifications — What to Check Before Hiring a Gardener
General gardening does not require formal qualifications. For tree work, look for NPTC/City & Guilds certification in chainsaw use. For landscaping, RHS qualifications indicate horticultural knowledge. For pesticide application, PA1/PA6 certificates are legally required.
✅ Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Gardener in Aberdeen
Before committing to any gardener in Aberdeen, ask these questions. A good tradesperson will answer all of them without hesitation:
- Do you carry public liability insurance?
- Do you dispose of green waste, and is it included in the price?
- Do you bring your own equipment and fuel?
- Can you provide photos of previous work?
- Do you hold tree surgery qualifications for any tree work?
- What is your cancellation policy for weather?
⚠️ Be cautious of gardeners who use a chainsaw without NPTC certification — this is dangerous and may void your insurance if damage occurs. For regular maintenance, agree a clear scope of work in writing so expectations are set.
