Urgent help needed with yard work, SH area

Due to husbands crazy work schedule and me juggling 4 kids, trip to home country and new school that is about to start we are looking for someone who can get the yard back in to something decent instead of the weed jungle it is now.

It would also be wonderful if you can fix the mower for us, probably the bougie which needs to be cleaned out.

If you are interested please pm me with you details (including your hourly fee, as being new to this country we don't know how much yard work pays)

If things work out for both ways this will probably be a returning job, every 2-3 months perhaps.

We live in Beringen, close to Schaffhausen

Re: Urgent help needed with yard work, SH area

i'd be interested in this too. i can't believe how much the garden has grown in the last couple of weeks with all the rain and sun.

but i remember a colleague telling me that it was very expensive.

Re: Urgent help needed with yard work, SH area

hello!!

I am interested in your offer! I'm also new in Switzerland so I'm looking for work. I have rich experiences in yard work, because I'm from a gardener's family from Czechia, so since I was born I'm gardening.I have some experiences from Ireland.
Although I live in St.Gallen now,i would like to work as much as possible each day, because of the distance.. I would like my hourly fee to be around 22 ChF,if possible paid daily,i can make different works around the house..
I am 29 years old.
best regards
Adam

I'd also be interested, looking for someone to re-turf our garden. We basically have a lawn full of dandelions and stones, and a baby who will definitely want to play in it next year! We are near oberglatt... If anyone knows of any professionals - please let me know!

Re: Urgent help needed with yard work, SH area

Hi all,

I have recently moved to SH from Australia and am looking for some work. I am available to do some gardening and yard work if you still require someone. I also have experience with laying lawn. Please PM me if you are interested.

Kind regards,

Lucien

Re: Urgent help needed with yard work, SH area

I would also be available for similar landscaping/garden/yard work. I have experience with terracing, building cascades/waterfalls, planting/gardening/weeding, you name it really. I've got a special touch for turning an overgrown jungle into a trim garden.

I wouldn't charge much, but it also wouldn't be the speed/quality of a professional.

PM me if interested

Exactly. I don't mean to steal any business, just cater for the out-of-reach market :P
