Mower Store Sales Are Soaring

Lawn mower storage sheds’ popularity has surged in recent years.

In part, this is because many new-build homes feature smaller gardens. Think about it. If your outdoor space is at a premium, it makes sense to opt for something smaller than a typical 8x6 shed.

Another reason is that many people with larger gardens and sheds are already fully utilising their existing space and need to top-up their garden storage.

Also, consider this: if you have to move your bicycle, BBQ and outdoor furniture out of the way before you can mow the lawn, it makes sense to have separate lawn mower storage, doesn’t it?

In the world of fencing, we have seen a huge boom in the number of home owners opting for slatted fence panels.

The clean, horizontal straight lines are proving to be a big hit in gardens across the country. The most popular designs feature horizontal slats and double slatted fence panels.

An extra bonus is that this style of fencing is not only aesthetically pleasing but incredibly practical too.
