While spring may still be a few weeks off, officially speaking, now’s the ideal time to get a jump start on your garden and landscaping projects. At Smiths Hire, we know that getting a head start can make all the difference when it comes to creating a stunning outdoor space. We also understand how frustrating it can be when you’re ready to get started but can’t find the right tools to make it happen. That’s why we’re proud to back up our commitment to you with our Top 100 tool hire pledge, making sure our most in-demand tools and equipment are always stocked and available exactly when you need them.
Whether you’re planning a big landscaping project or just sprucing up your garden, you can count on us to have the tools you need to get things done right. Here’s a look at some of the equipment you can rely on us to have ready for you!
Petrol turf cutter
Late winter and early spring provide the ideal conditions for turf removal and ground preparation – this is largely because the ground is no longer frozen and is soft from winter rain, making it easier to cut through and clear away old turf. If you happen to be looking for a turf cutter for your landscaping project, we’ve got you covered at Smiths Hire!
Our petrol turf cutter is perfect for helping you clear space for fresh turf or artificial grass. With a powerful Honda 5.5hp engine and a self-propelled system, it makes light work of removing old sod and prepping your garden for whatever comes next. The heavy-duty blade ensures smooth, precise cuts, while the self-propelled system gives you excellent control, making it easy to manoeuvre through your garden, no matter the shape or size! And the best part? This tool isn’t just for spring projects either – it’s built to handle year-round work as long as the ground conditions are right (i.e. not frozen)!
Petrol rotary mower
If you’ve let your lawn grow a bit wild over winter, now’s the time to give it some much-needed attention, and we’ve got just the tool to help! Our Petrol rotary mower is ideal for medium-sized lawns (up to 1200m²), making lawn care straightforward and stress-free. With easy central height adjustment, you can quickly set the cutting height to suit your needs – whether you’re just tidying things up or giving your lawn a more precise cut. For the first few weeks, we recommend leaving it a little longer to promote healthier, fuller growth.
What’s more, the 55-litre grass catcher box means fewer stops, so you can keep mowing without interruptions. And with foldable handlebars, storing it is a breeze. Plus, the single-speed drive makes it easier to handle larger or sloped lawns, making mowing easier than ever, no matter the terrain.
Heavy duty electric power washer
During the winter months, it’s tough to keep your outdoor spaces looking their best, especially when you’re not spending much time in the garden, and the weather does its best to undo your efforts. Now that the weather is improving as we’re moving into spring, it’s the perfect time to bring your outdoor areas back to life, and our heavy duty electric power washer is just the tool you need.
Whether it’s patios, driveways, decking, or even garden furniture, this power washer can handle it all. The high-pressure steel braided hose and integrated detergent tank make light work of tough dirt and grime. And with its adjustable pressure and flow control, it gives you complete flexibility to clean a variety of surfaces, from delicate wood to more durable stone. If you’re keeping it for a few weeks while you tidy up your outdoor space, its compact design makes it easy to store in the garage or shed without getting in your way. If you’re only renting for a day or two though to get the job done, simply power through, pack it up, and send it straight back to us!
Now’s the perfect time to get stuck into your spring garden and landscaping projects, and at Smiths Hire, we’re here to make sure you’ve got the right tools for the job. With our Top 100 tool hire pledge, you’ll never be without what you need. We can offer delivery straight to your door or work site. Or, if you’d prefer to swing by, we’ve got 18 depots across the North West, including Manchester, Liverpool, and Leeds.
