How much per hour for a local gardener?
An hour of garden work costs the rate the Helper sets with holiday pay on top, plus the contributions you add as the employer and, when you book through Helpore, the Helpore fee. That rate is never below Helpore's floor or a minimum wage that applies where the work is done. Each Helper profile shows its price.
How much do you get paid as a gardener?
A Helper who works in private gardens sets their own hourly rate, never below Helpore's floor, and each household that employs them pays it with holiday pay on top as the gross wage. The employee share of contributions is deducted, leaving the net wage, and Helpers pay no Helpore fee. Earnings depend on the rate and the hours booked.
When is garden work household employment?
Garden work is household employment when you pay someone to work in and around your own home and decide what is done, when and how. You are then the employer: you insure the person against accidents and pay the contributions due. A company's service, a gardener the compensation office recognises as self-employed and caretaker work on shared grounds are not.
How much does it usually cost for a gardener?
Keeping a private garden costs the hours the work takes, each at the hourly price: the Helper's rate with holiday pay on top, the contributions you add as the employer and, when you book, the Helpore fee. Size, season and tasks decide the hours. Tidying, watering and balcony care are included; tree felling and heavy machinery are not.
How to find the best gardener?
Describe the work first, then compare public Helper profiles for gardening by area, services and availability, and check that the tasks you need are listed. Helpers on Helpore offer light garden and outdoor work, not tree felling, work at height, pesticides or specialist landscaping. Whichever Helper you choose, your household is the employer for work in your private garden.
