How to hire a gardener in KwaZulu-Natal
- Distinguish "gardener" (mow, edge, weed) from "landscaper" (design, hard landscaping) — different rates.
- Confirm whether the pro brings equipment (mower, blower, trimmer) or expects yours.
- Ask for photos of recent work — a good gardener has a portfolio.
- Agree what happens to garden refuse — collection is often an extra R100–R200.
Safety advice
- For tree felling near power lines, insist on a certified arborist — accidents can be fatal.
- Pesticide use around pets or children requires a proper HSE risk brief.
What "verified" means
