Check Out These 3 Ways To Make Your Garden-Work Easier

Summer is already flying past and, before you know it, it will be Autumn again. It’s time to start seriously considering your yearly garden maintenance, and maybe even draw up a to-do list for both Summer and Autumn.

With these simply tips and accessories, you can dramatically decrease the effort that your garden-work requires, without sacrificing on the high-quality maintenance. From investing in a hydraulic log-splitter, or choosing to install gutter-guards for your home, you can drastically reduce your yard-work this year, and leave yourself more time to enjoy the sunlight, or put your feet up with your favourite TV show and a cup of tea.

Have You Considered These 3 Ways To Make Your Garden-Work Easier?

1. Install Gutter-Guards – If your house is surrounded by trees, then you’ll understand just how much of a pain it can be to clear your guttering. You need to dig out your ladder from the mess of your shed, stick on your thickest, waterproof gloves (which rarely keep the cold out anyway) and start throwing your leaves onto the ground below.
   
   When you install gutter-guards, you can protect your guttering from becoming clogged by falling leaves. They are available in a wide range of styles and materials to match any price range, but they all allow water to enter your guttering system, whilst denying access to larger debris.
   
   Whilst they might not be completely effective as advertised, and you will still probably have to clean them out every couple of years, they can drastically reduce the amount of work that you are required to do.
2. Find Yourself The Perfect Log-Splitter – If you stockpile wood for your fireplace, or you have a wood burner for other reasons, than you cannot afford to be without a hydraulic log-splitter. Using a hydraulic piston, these log-splitters force a blade into a pre-cut log, to create smaller and more manageable sections.
   
   Hydraulic log-splitters are one of the home owner’s best friends, whether you’re cutting down an entire tree in your back yard, or chopping pre-bought firewood into the perfect size.
3. Get A Leaf-Blower! – The leaf-blowers of yesteryear have earned themselves something of a bad reputation, as loud, ineffective polluters than annoy neighbours more than the make a difference to the leaves on your lawn. Contemporary models, however, are environmentally-friendly and run much quieter than their forebears.
   
   Battery-operated leaf blowers are also available, and these can cost much less to operate, without sacrificing on the high-quality service that modern blowers offer.

If your garden is plagued by fallen leaves, and they are spread thinly across the ground, then why not leave them over winter? Only large accumulations of leaves and garden waste will damage your grass; an even distribution will not harm your lawn, and it can make your life that much easier.
