A gardener would likely sub the bricklaying and tiling, whereas a builder could also do the hardstanding for the bins (three/four paving slabs?).
And if the garden is just going to be gravel or similar they could also do that, but laying some weed suppressing membrane and emptying a couple of bags of stone is hardly worth paying someone else to do.
If you want the garden planted I'm not sure there's enough to make it worthwhile for a gardener, but they would have plenty of ideas about what to do.
A single dwarf ornamental tree or a bushy shrub (eg Fuschia), with ground cover planting?
Any front gardens around your way that you like the look of? Anyone who's put work into their garden will be more than happy to talk to you about it, pass on tips (and perhaps plants) and may be up for the job or at least help you with it.
