"Retail as we know it, has changed. Almost anything can be purchased online. A consumer can walk into a shop and buy food, a television and lawnmower all at the same store, the sales person who sold you an oven yesterday, sells you a chainsaw today. This all sound like it could be a change for the good, but one has to wonder, what do these people really know about what they are selling? Or is it simply a case of them telling you what you want to hear in order to make the sale… For us, knowing and understanding your situation and conditions is a crucial part of ensuring that we can sell you the correct machine for your application. Gardening Aids Ltd is your Outdoor Power Equipment Solution and brings you parts, accessories and advice on some the most exclusive brands in the business. Like all good things in life, your garden equipment needs regular maintenance, and an annual service. This is where we can help. Being able to service what we sell, is just as important as the sale itself. Having a fully equipped workshop, a certified master service technician, and years of experience results in confident customer service with a smile." You can call me any time on 02108287746
"I urge you to use the booking form as there will be considerable delays on repairs being done through parts & labour shortage. We appreciate your support in the past and in these difficult times."

The Niwashi Traditional Japanese Garden Tool has an angled blade that cuts into the soil as you pull it towards yourself. A more comfortable and natural action, unlike Western garden tools. The sharp blade makes light work of breaking up compacted garden beds, and all weeding tasks.

The Alko Drain 7500 Classic water pump is robust, powerful and handy. Particularly useful for removing heavily contaminated liquids, for example, after excessive flooding, from contaminated ponds, tanks or at flooded construction sites. As dirt particles need to be removed in addition to water, there is a significantly increased load on the material and engine performance.
The Drain 7500 can easily handle this due to the advanced vortex impeller technology, which also manages highly contaminated water with up to 5 percent of hover particles and grain sizes up to 30mm without problems.
Due to its large suction opening, the Drain 7500 Classic also pumps contaminated water with particles up to 30 mm in suspension, effortlessly and smoothly.
A maintenance free motor, specially treated motor shaft made from Inox stainless steel and the fibreglass reinforced polypropylene housing are features which guarantee a long service life in the AL-KO Drain 7500 Classic water pump.
AL-KO wastewater pumps are equipped complete with a freely swiveling 90° angle connection to prevent unwanted kinking of the pump hose. The included combination adapter is suitable for different hose sizes.
The Drain 7500 Classic model pumps up to 7,500 l/h with a maximum head of 6 metres, regardless of whether clean or dirty water is involved.
* Automatic shut-off with float switch
* Guaranteed flow with vortex impeller geometry
* Add a 1500Watt generator for portability.

FOR THE LAWN
EXCITING NEW HUSQVARNA PRODUCTS ARE HERE
Finally – battery products that meet our standards
Battery operated outdoor power tools have been available for a while. But the technology had not reached the levels of power and efficiency that Husqvarna require to put their name on a product - until now.
Take a look at the Husqvarna Battery Series: a line of products that includes battery powered lawnmowers, rideon mowers,chainsaws, leaf blowers, grass trimmers, brush cutters, high pruners, and hedge trimmers.
Working with battery-driven outdoor machines does not mean you’ll have to compromise on runtime. A single charge of the powerful 36V Li-ion battery allows you to work approximately as long as you would on one tank of petrol*.
Since the charging time is shorter than the usual working time, having an extra battery will enable you to work non-stop.
Husqvarna also offers a backpack battery that provides a capacity up to ten times greater than the integrated battery, allowing you to work with fewer breaks for battery changes. The backpack works with all Husqvarna handheld products and the ergonomic harness is adjustable to fit users of any size.
*Variations occur between applications, but the aim is one battery = one tank of petrol.
-------------------------
Husqvarna has been perfecting the Automower since 1995 and it is so good now that if you have a a lawn between 500 and 6,000 sq.m. and up to a 45% slope - you may never have to mow your lawn again! You can imagine the Husqvarna Automower as being a mechanical sheep that constantly automatically grazes your lawn, day or night, silently, and automatically finds its way back to its garage to charge up its battery when needed
