Lawn Maintenance::




Lawn Maintenance::

Traditionally in Nottinghamshire, depending on the climate and weather conditions most homeowners around spring time contemplate tidying up the garden and looking after their lawns.

After winter and around late February/March time, lawned areas are normally ready for the first cut of the season and need a minimal amount of maintenance to prepare the lawn for summer use.

An ideal machine to use to tidy up the flower borders and bedding areas is a petrol powered brushcutter - using a light and compact engine these allow fast cutting and removal of grass and compliment the use of a lawnmower.

A lawnmower should be used at this time with the blade set at it's highest setting to allow the lawn to be conditioned.

After several cuts the blade can be gradually lowered to achieve the finish and appearance required of the lawn.

Several different types of lawnmowers can be used depending on the level and type of lawn in each garden.

Garden Clean Up::


Garden Clean Up::


Traditionally from January To April each year most home owners tackle the job of cleaning up their garden areas after winter.


As well as tidying up the flowerbeds and lawned areas one of the difficult tasks is the cleaning of patios, paths, driveways & decking.

Over recent years people have steered away from using patio cleaning chemicals because of the damage done to plants and wildlife and have favored the use of a cold water pressure washer.

Using just the force of the power washer, patios and stoneware can be easily and quickly restored to there former appearance.

By using a heavy duty pressure washer - moss, algae, and lichen can normally be removed with minimal effort. Garden patio furniture and outdoor structures can also be refurbished to an as new finish.

Popular models used for garden clean up tasks are the lightweight but trade quality units available from our Tool Hire Shop. These Karcher units are of different specifications to the Karcher models sold in DIY shops and work far more efficiently as well as faster.

The power washers we hire and sell are also more comfortable to use with less vibration being passed back to the operator.
