Mini Diggers for Garden Renovation

Mini-diggers take the strain of any digging necessary in the garden renovation process, you’ll be particularly grateful for one should you hit a hard rock base. Unlike their bigger cousins, Mini Diggers can get into quite tight corners and are surprisingly maneuverable even in small gardens. Why spend hours of backbreaking labour when a Mini Digger can do the job in a fraction of the time?

Scarifiers to maintain a perfect Garden Lawn

Scarifiers remove dead grass and other sediment from your lawn’s surface, allowing it to breathe better and ventilate. It is recommended that they be used once a year; overuse can damage the lawn. Our Lawn Scarifier fleet is detailed here.

Flail Mowers stop ungainly growth

In some cases, unwieldy grass may have grown to a point where a regular lawn mower simply can’t trim the growth effectively. Don’t let this put you off a full garden renovation, you just need a Flail Mower. Not only can Flail Mowers handle long grass, they can even be used to get rid of unwanted shrubbery. Ideal for large lawn areas, Flail Lowers are also more effective when it comes to tackling lawn growth on slopes and other awkward-to-reach areas. You might be thinking that a Flail Mower is an expensive purchase for something you mightn’t need as often as a regular lawn mower, so why not consider hiring one?

Rotor Stone Rakes Rid Your Garden of Hidden Debris

Embedded stone and other debris can often be a hindrance to attaining a perfectly smooth lawn surface. That is why you should have a Rotary Stone Rake when lining up your Garden Renovation Equipment. Rotar Stone Rakes work by penetrating the soil and casting out stone, roots, and other unwanted elements. One such example is the Blec Motor Stone Rake, which has a powerful Honda engine that eliminates the need for tough manual effort on your part.

Garden Rollers for a Smooth Garden Surface

Garden Rollers are an ingenious, simple piece of garden renovation equipment. Consisting of a water-filled cylindrical device, you simply roll them over uneven lawn surfaces to smooth them out, in some ways they’re like a mini steamroller for your garden. One example of use is for repairing surfaces damaged by animals or a harsh winter. Garden Rollers can also be particularly effective at helping to bed in freshly laid but loose seeds into the soil.

Seed Sower/Fertilizer Spreaders Cut Out the Tediousness of Planting a Lawn

Manual seeing of a lawn can be a tedious and inaccurate process, even for smaller lawns. This is why hiring a seed dower is a must for garden renovation. Some models can also be used as Fertilizer Spreaders. Generally, Seed Sowers will have a large hopper for holding the material and an adjustable feed to control the volume of seeds distributed. They’re efficient in seeing both large and small lawns they can even be used on golf courses so the average home garden renovation is well within their capability.
