Gardening and landscaping work in Castleknock
Gardening splits into two kinds of work that pay differently: maintenance, which repeats fortnightly through the growing season and builds a round, and landscaping, which is project work at a much higher value. Most professionals here do both, using the round to fill the weeks between projects.
Dublin has the densest cleaning market in the country, and the most competition for it. Apartment turnovers, short-let changeovers and office contracts run all year rather than in season, which is what makes it possible to build a full week here without travelling far between jobs.
Requests in Castleknock and the surrounding parts of Co. Dublin go out to professionals who cover the area. You say where you travel, so you are not offered work an hour away.
