In short. For garden maintenance at a villa in Mohammedia, the question is who brings the pruning shears, watering can and potting soil. Adom (adom.ma) and the AdomApp app (adomapp.com) connect you with a gardener. The quote is personalised and free, and you pay after the service. These steps help you cover everything.
1. Walk the garden with a notebook
Mimoun, an imagined owner, has a villa in Mohammedia, an Atlantic port city whose beaches are visited by people from Casablanca. Before calling anyone he walks round his garden and notes what he sees: shrubs to prune, a hedge, flower beds, lawn, pots, paths. The method works for any garden: a written inventory stops you forgetting a corner.
2. Match tools to tasks
For each task Mimoun writes down the tool that goes with it. Cutting a hedge or branches calls for pruning shears, plus hedge trimmers for a long hedge. Watering calls for a watering can or a hose connected to a tap within reach. Repotting or refilling a bed calls for suitable potting soil. Add gloves, bags for garden waste and a broom. The list saves running back and forth to a shop mid-job.
3. Agree who supplies what
In his request Mimoun writes what he already has (watering can, hose, bags) and what he expects from the gardener (shears, soil, other tools). He also says who buys plants or soil if needed, and whether he wants the garden waste taken away. Without that line, each side assumes the other is bringing the kit.
4. Describe the garden on AdomApp
Mimoun books garden maintenance on AdomApp and describes the approximate size in words, the plants, access (gate, path, tap), any pets and the days that work. He gets proposals, compares what they include and picks one. Adom connects people and does not employ the professionals, so the choice is his. The quote is personalised and free; allow 24 to 48 hours for proposals.
5. The day of the visit
Mimoun clears the way, moves anything in the way and closes off access to a pool or pond if there is one. He shows the gardener which plants not to touch and where the tap is. He keeps sharp tools out of children's reach and pets out of the way.
6. Afterwards
Mimoun walks round again and checks the cuts, the removal of garden waste and the state of the path. He notes what needs redoing and uses those notes to write a more precise request next time. He pays after the service.

Frequently asked questions
Does the gardener bring their own tools?
That is settled in the request. Write what you have at home and what you expect, then check the answer in the proposals.
Which potting soil should I choose?
It depends on the plants. Describe them in the request and ask the gardener what they recommend rather than buying blind.
Who takes away the garden waste?
Say so in the request. If you want it taken away, tell them from the start.
Do I need a tap nearby?
Yes, for watering with a hose. If not, set out watering cans and mention it.
How are the price and payment set?
The quote is personalised and free on AdomApp, and you pay after the service.
