I use a pakistani lad called "Akif" who charges 80TL a day (8am-5pm). He will also work half days too.

We give him some food & a few cups of coffee during the day.

He cleared my garden (one donum) in 2 days!

He's a good respectful lad & hard working.

He lives in Girne & can get the dolmus to Lapta without problem.

£300 sounds like a price to re-landscape not just clean up?

Hey that seems like 'slave labour'!



Proper gardening/landscaping is hard work and should therefore, be justifiablly rewarded - a decent wage for a decent job!

Depends what's needed, but a 'livable' hourly/daily rate : - )

re message 8 i had the whole garden cleared last august,had the rear garden toped with gravel but a membrane first to prevent further weeds shooting out

after the rains the edges had odd gaps where weeds grew

i can email the garden before and now so they can see what I mean

the sides and front are still okay but need a clean up thanks
