  • What is the difference between a gardener and a landscape gardener?

    While gardeners and landscapers have several shared skills, these tradespeople are not the same. Gardeners focus on maintaining existing outdoor spaces and perform tasks such as:

    In comparison, landscapers are typically hired to create a new outdoor space or transform the layout and design of an existing garden. Common landscaping tasks include:

    Gardeners typically work on smaller projects at residential properties. While landscapers also work on residential projects, they are often hired to work on large-scale public and commercial projects too.

  • Is hiring a landscaper worth it?

    Hiring a professional landscaper is often worth the cost if the following apply:

    • You have no gardening/landscaping experience yourself

    • You want long lasting, high quality results

    • You don’t have the time or tools to do the job yourself

    • You don’t know how to create or plan your dream garden design

    • Your project is complex - includes excavation work, installing new decking, building water features, etc

    • The work needed is beyond the scope of your regular gardener

    Landscaping projects are often expensive. If you’re working with a tight budget, it may be worth exploring DIY garden design methods as a more cost-effective option.

  • What questions should I ask when hiring a reliable landscaper near me?

    When looking to hire a landscaper, it’s always helpful to ask a few questions about their work and experience.

    Here are some example questions to ask when hiring a landscaper:

    • What landscaping services do you offer?

    • What gardening/landscaping qualifications do you have?

    • Can I see examples of your previous landscaping projects?

    • What’s included in your cost, and what is charged as extra?

    • How do you dispose of garden waste?

    • How long do you estimate the job will take?

    • Do you offer a customer satisfaction guarantee?

    By asking these sorts of questions, you’ll be able to get a clearer understanding of the landscaper’s experience and the quality of their service.

    You’re likely going to be working with a landscaper for several weeks/months, so it’s important that you hire a friendly and reliable tradesperson.

  • How to choose a landscaper in Sevenoaks?

    Garden landscaping projects are generally complex and time consuming. For the best experience and finished results, hire a reputable landscaper who can meet all of your project’s needs.

    Here are our top tips for finding the right landscaper in Sevenoaks for your project:

    1. Choose a qualified garden landscaper

    There are thousands of gardeners out there, but not all of them have professional qualifications and landscaping experience. Ideally, you want to hire a landscaper with a recognised qualification, such as RHS certification, an NVQ, HND, or NPTC.

    2. Always ask for references

    One of the best ways to hire a quality landscaper with confidence is to ask for references from their previous customers. Good quality landscapers will be happy to provide you with contact details of their previous or existing customers.

    3. Read their reviews and ratings

    It’s also a good idea to check reviews and ratings from the landscaper’s previous customers. Checking a tradesperson’s Checkatrade profile is a great way to see their most recent reviews quickly and all in one place. If you’re happy with what their previous customers have to say, you can then contact a landscaper directly from their profile.

    4. Check their insurance

    It’s important to make sure that the landscaper you hire has appropriate insurance. Hiring an insured landscaper will help you to avoid financial disputes should a claim need to be made following an accident or damage to your property.

    Reputable local garden landscapers will have a number of relevant insurance policies in place to cover their work, including public and third-party liability insurance. Ask to see proof of insurance before agreeing to hire a landscaper.

    5. Search Checkatrade

    You will only find checked, vetted, and guaranteed (T&Cs apply) landscapers here on Checkatrade. All tradespeople must pass several quality checks before they receive our stamp of approval.
