Lawn Mowers

PETROL LAWN MOWERS - Petrol lawnmowers are the perfect choice if you have a large lawn or if you're a professional gardener. They are now becoming more popular as they become cheaper to purchase and easier to look after. Most modern petrol mowers have 2 stroke engines. The main benefit is that a petrol mower can go anywhere as it's not tied to a power outlet and can generally cope with longer grass due to the extra power of the engine. A self propelled lawn mower directs some of the power from the engine to drive the wheels making it easier to push. The higher the engine horse power the more powerful the engine. In a 2 stroke engine, oil is added to the fuel before it is put into the mower. Petrol mowers are noisier compared to other types because of their engines and do require a little more looking after, however a well maintained petrol mower will outlast most other lawn mower types.

CORDLESS BATTERY LAWN MOWERS - If you've got a medium sized lawn then generally a cordless battery or petrol lawn mower would be the best choice. Cordless battery powered mowers are easier and safety to use and give you the freedom to mow without any cables getting in your way or risk of running over them. Cordless lawn mowers are becoming more and more popular as battery technology allows greater power and longer running times. The main feature of a cordless lawn mower is the ability to mow your lawn with complete freedom as there's no cable to limit how far you can go and obviously doesn't require a power socket to use. Charging and running times vary from model to model so always check this. The running time will reduce based on the amount of work the mower motor has to do, for example, the length of the grass or if the grass is slightly wet. Most models come as 'body only' which means you have the choice of buying different battery strengths depending on your requirements.

ELECTRIC LAWN MOWERS - Electric lawn mowers are the obvious choice for smaller family sized lawns as they tend to be lower in cost, easier to store and lightweight but require a power socket close by to start mowing. Electric mowers take out a lot of the hard work associated with hand push along mowers.  Electric mowers are fairly maintenance free and require a lot less looking after than petrol mowers, plus they are generally a lot cheaper too. The only drawback is that you need a power socket nearby, and often a long extension lead. Some people don't like this as it can be a pain having a long cable around when mowing, and also it's not safe to mow when the lawn is wet. A circuit breaker (RCD) should always be used when using an electric lawn mower.

RIDE ON LAWN MOWERS - For larger gardens or commercial spaces a ride on mower is the ideal solution to keep your lawns looking their best. Ride on lawn mowers will save you time and effort as well as being more efficient and fun.

Mulching options, which is the perfect solution for those who do not wish to collect grass clippings, the clippings are recycled, improving the soil as they decompose back in to the lawn.

LAWN SCARIFIERS - Scarifiers are designed to encourage healthy lawn growth by removing dead moss and other debris like grass cuttings. The best time to use a lawn scarifier, also commonly known as lawn raker, will depend on the weather and location but as a guideline, use when the lawn growth is at its most active in spring and early summer.
