Gardening and garden care in Ashkelon
Garden care, watering, trimming. Describe the job — gardeners in your city respond.
Ashkelon has many private houses with yards and new neighbourhoods where the garden is only taking shape. Summers are hot, and garden care depends a lot on irrigation. Describe the area, what grows there and the work needed: upkeep, pruning, an irrigation system. Gardeners in Ashkelon respond, and you agree the scope of work in the chat. You can show photos of the plot there too.
Popular gardening services
Maintenance, pruning, irrigation and landscaping/lawn care.
Garden maintenance
Seasonal upkeep, soil care and plant health.
Seasonal visits: lawn mowing, trimming shrubs, weeding, feeding and clearing leaves. This format suits you if you want to keep the plot in order all the time. In your request, give the area, what grows in the garden and how often you need visits. Discuss the schedule and the range of work with the specialist in the chat.
Read on the blogTree & shrub pruning
Pruning, shaping and branch removal.
Cutting back branches, shaping the crown, removing dead and obstructing parts. If the trees are tall or the branches are near wires or a building, the work is harder and more dangerous. Describe the number and height of the trees and whether you need the branches taken away, and ask the gardener about experience and safety measures.
Irrigation setup & repair
Drip systems, timers and water‑saving adjustments.
Setting timers, checking drip lines and nozzles, adjusting the schedule to the season. A well-tuned system helps use water more sparingly. In your request, give the type of irrigation and what is not working, for example a clogged dripper or a timer that has lost its settings. Ask in the chat whether the specialist does repairs.
Landscaping & lawn care
Design refresh, lawn treatment and tidy edges.
Mowing and feeding the lawn, trimming the edges, levelling the plot, refreshing flower beds. This format suits you when you need to put the yard in order or prepare it for the season. Write down the lawn area, the condition of the grass and the work needed, and agree the scope and materials with the gardener in advance.
Read on the blogIrrigation system installation
Drip irrigation installation, timer setup and automation.
Installing drip irrigation, connecting it to a tap or controller, and setting up the timer and watering zones. This is project work: the specialist usually looks at the plot first. Describe which plants need watering, where the water supply runs and whether there is a ready plan. Materials and cost are discussed individually.
Landscape design
Garden planning, plant selection and composition creation.
Planning the yard, choosing plants for the climate and light, seating areas, paths. This is a long project in which showing ideas and photos matters. Give the size of the plot and your wishes, ask for examples of past work and discuss the stages and timing in the chat before starting.
Gardener services in Israel: how to find and choose one
A gardener is needed when you do not have time for the plot, yard or roof garden: the lawn needs mowing, shrubs trimming, trees pruning, irrigation setting up or the garden tidying after the season. On EzraHome Connect you describe the work and gardeners in your city respond. The platform is not an agency: it does not vet specialists and takes no part in your agreements.
There are two formats. Regular care follows a schedule: weekly, every two weeks or monthly. One-off projects are tree pruning, clearing a plot, installing or repairing irrigation, and planting. Decide in advance what you need and say so in your request. For regular care, settle how often you want visits and at what hours, so that the work does not disturb the family.
The more detail you give, the easier it is to estimate the work. Give the approximate area of the plot, whether there is a lawn, trees and a hedge, the type of irrigation, access to the plot and whether you have dogs. Photos help the gardener see the scope, and you can send them in the chat. Say separately whether you need branches and grass clippings taken away. For one-off projects it helps to attach a list of the jobs you want, in order of priority.
In a profile, look at experience, working area, languages, photo and description. Some gardeners take on regular care, others specialise in pruning tall trees or in irrigation systems, so ask about similar jobs. Ask for references and examples of past work.
The season matters too. It is easier to plan the work so that the lawn, trees and hedge are cared for on time, and in the heat or in rainy periods the schedule can be moved. Discuss with the gardener when it is best to prune and feed the plants on your plot, and which plants will suit your spot: sunny, shaded or windy. If the gardener comes regularly, ask for a short message after each visit saying what was done and what will need attention next time.
Before starting, discuss in the chat the schedule, what tools the gardener uses, who removes the waste and how the amount of work is recorded. For pruning tall trees, ask about experience and safety measures: EzraHome does not vet specialists, so you settle these questions directly. For regular care, agree on a trial visit.
How much does a gardener cost
For hourly garden care, expect 60–80 ₪ per hour as a market guide. This is a reference range, not a platform rate: the gardener sets the rate, and it is shown in the profile. One-off projects such as tree pruning, clearing a plot or installing irrigation, and care on a monthly arrangement, are priced for the specific scope of work, so you agree the price individually.
Plot size and condition
The size of the yard, how overgrown it is, the number of trees and shrubs. A neglected plot will take more time than a well-kept one.
Type of work
Mowing the lawn, pruning, planting and setting up irrigation differ in how labour-intensive they are and in the tools needed.
Regularity
A single visit and care on a schedule are discussed differently. Say in your request how often you need a gardener.
Height and access
Tall trees, a slope, a narrow passage or no vehicle access may call for equipment and extra preparation.
Waste removal and materials
Taking away branches and grass clippings, fertiliser, plants, irrigation parts. Clarify what is included in the job and what is paid for separately.
The gardener sets the price, and you agree it in the chat. The platform does not set rates and takes no part in your agreement.
