Spring weather is picking up and we are excited! Lots of
flowers blooming and the birds chorus in the morning. A picture perfect garden
and a coffee on the patio… Oh no! The winter has completely ruined the
setting!? Let us give you some quick tips to bring back your garden delight…
1.
Clear those gutters! Not the easiest or nicest
of jobs but the April showers will soon be hitting us and those gutters have
thrived on damp all winter through. Clear the moss and the debris and you’ll be
thanking yourself when the rain pours.
2.
Cut the grass quick! The first cut of the start
of every year should be done around March. Ideally you would want this done
with a petrol mower because the grass from the bottom will most likely be wet.
3.
Clear those leaves and twigs from the paths and
garden. They come from nowhere and make the garden look untidy.
4.
How are your tools looking? Service them, a lot
of accidents can happen from tools that are not in a fit state to be used,
always put your safety first and hire tools if needed to do the right job.
5.
Look after your children and pets. The first things
we all want to do are plant plants and grow vegetables, and with this we try to
protect them. You can buy child and animal friendly weed killer. Make sure that
your insect repellent is kept away from them at all times.
6.
Clean the tables and chairs. We always have a
surprise visit from the sun and we itch to get our garden parties started. Make
sure you can spend the day prepping the BBQ food and you’ll not need to worry
about cleaning the furniture.
7.
Pressure wash your green garden. Moss grows
everywhere and on everything. Pressure wash your decking, fence panels and concrete
to bring back to life your surroundings.
