We utilise the small, but mighty Honda Izy HRG 466 SKEP for mowing lawns. Grass cutting is at the core of our business and this powerful little mower will handle anything from a small to large garden and can tackle some seriously long grass!
It also has the benefit of a quality mulching setting, allowing us to recycle your cut grass, back into the lawn. The benefits of mulching include promoting thicker, healthier grass, whilst reducing weed growth and maintaining moisture levels in your lawn, something that can be particularly important during the warmer summer months.
A huge part of our ethos here at Atlas Gardening is an effort to be greener in everything we do! That's why all of our hand held machinery is battery powered! We use the fantastic range offered by STIHL which is powered by their AP battery system.
As the market leader in handheld garden machinery STIHL make the best quality equipment on offer. They're tried and tested and we know they give the best quality finish possible.
This reduction in the need for petrol as fuel means less pollution from our machinery as we use it for maintaining your green spaces. The electric machinery also produces much less noise pollution, minimising disruption to you at home, guests in a holiday rental or workers in an office.
We aim to treat garden weeds by manual removal where possible and have a strong view that regular scheduled visits to your property are the best way to stay on top of things.
On larger areas or where required, such as on heavily weed infested paths and driveways, we sometimes opt for treatment with a weedkiller which is applied by spraying.
We try to encourage the use of Round Up Natural which is a Glyphosate free weedkiller and breaks down naturally in the soil. However we do also offer the use of Round Up Pro Active 360 which is a powerful Glyphosate weedkiller, when requested.
Green waste is carefully cleared from the site and disposed of, free of charge, in your brown garden waste bins or onsite compost areas.
Alternatively, as licensed garden waste carriers we can remove the green waste from your site completely and dispose of it at one of the local waste recycling sites we use.
Please note this option incurs a charge which is dependant on the volume of waste.
