3 tools to sort your outdoors this summer

Following the crazy spring we’ve had; summer is finally here. For many of us it means barbeque weather, trips to the lake or the beach, and Christmas and New Year’s. One thing we love about these events is that they all bring people together. So, whether your block is big enough to host the entire family, or the number of urgent jobs is ramping up just before the silly season, now is the time to get everything sorted.

There are the easy wins like cleaning the barbeque or wiping the cobwebs off your outdoor furniture. But in order to have everything looking like a professional did it, there are a few tools that can make the job fast and easy. It could be the right mower to make maintenance a breeze, or even just a new sprayer to get rid of any weeds that have cropped up. What’s most important is that you’re aware of what you can take care of yourself – so we’ve put together a list of three essential tools that can help get your outdoors sorted in no time.

1. A new BOB-CAT mower

With a lawn larger than most, or a few you need to maintain for others, being able to do the job efficiently and effectively key to being able to spend more time enjoying the weather. Our range of BOB-CAT zero turn mowers come in all shapes and sizes to suit just about any block, and they all carry warranties of 5-6 years. The only exception to these commercial-grade mowers being perfectly suited to your lawns is if your property is too hilly to use one safely. If that’s the case, check out a 4WD Canycom instead.

2. A DR Trimmer

Have you ever wondered how people get those annoying patches of grass that grow under the fence? Chances are, they’re either slaving away with a weed eater – or they have a trimmer mower. At OMC, we’re big fans of the DR range of trimmers because they’re built to last and they’re far more efficient than their handheld counterparts. Available in a range of sizes, they let you cover plenty of ground with more power and less effort.

3. A Stihl water blaster

Whenever you mow the lawns, trim the hedges or get out in the garden, you’re likely to have a small clean up on your hands afterwards. But rather than trying to get the most pressure you can from a garden hose, why not make the job quick and easy with a water blaster? Owning one opens up a world of possibilities when it comes to cleaning outdoor equipment, decks and patios, fences and even your car. Our range of reliable Stihl water blasters caters to everyone from weekend warriors to professional operators. Just don’t get too carried away – it happens!
