This is a full-service market, often live-in, where having your own car is advisable because of the distances between urbanisations. Demand concentrates in the season and around owners' arrivals, and discretion and experience in large houses are valued.
What the service includes
Garden and outdoor upkeep: pruning, irrigation, lawn, pool and seasonal plant care.
Before hiring, decide what is seasonal and what is weekly: pruning, irrigation, lawn and pool are not distributed the same way in winter and summer. In Estepona gardens in Centro and La Cancelada usually need a fixed day plus an extra visit in spring, and that is what gets written down.
What we ask of the professional
Experience with Mediterranean gardens, basic machinery skills and availability by the day.
In Estepona we ask for experience with Mediterranean gardens and basic machinery; the work is spread between Centro and La Cancelada, almost always in full days, and a driving licence makes the journeys much easier.
Legal framework
May be employed or paid per day; machinery work requires risk-prevention compliance.
In Estepona we support the family through the paperwork: we review the contract before it is signed and check that registration and contributions are up to date.
