I work away for up to a month at a time and need to arrange for
someone to maintain my garden - cut lawns , hedges , weeding
general tyding up etc.

What is the best way of going about finding someone reliable ,
regular etc. probably 2 hours pw would be enough .
Is it best to get an individual or arrange a contract with larger
operator ?

What would be the going rate in the South East area

Thanks for any help
