Ground Care Equipment

One of the most critical areas during the winter months is ground care. As temperatures drop, frost settles in, a barrage of rain comes and more, maintaining your outdoor spaces becomes more challenging. 

Here at P&L Tool Solutions we offer various ground care equipment that can make a significant difference including the following:

Hedge Trimmers and Leaf Blowers: These are vital for clearing away debris such as fallen leaves and pruning hedges before the snow arrives. Winter winds can cause a lot of damage to untrimmed hedges, making early maintenance a smart strategy. What’s more is that if trees and bushes are overgrown they may be prone to snapping off in high windows which can cause damage to buildings, people or animals.

Lawn Mowers and Brush Cutters: While lawn mowing slows down during the winter, some properties may require a trim towards the end of the year and early on in the next. Brush cutters are also useful for tackling overgrown areas that could become problematic as the weather worsens. Proper maintenance in the winter will prevent any problems moving forward.

Excavators and Mini Diggers

If you’re embarking on any kind of digging or construction work during winter, having access to mini diggers or excavators will undoubtedly be great for your project progress. P&L Tool Solutions offers a range of plant hire, including mini diggers, which are perfect for excavation in tight spaces. Winter ground is harder and more difficult to break, so having the right equipment ensures that projects can be completed with minimal delays. Mini diggers are particularly helpful when you’re dealing with:

Frozen ground: The compact power of these machines can break through frozen soil, making them ideal for digging foundations or trenches. This simply wouldn’t be possible manually or with some other tools in the same amount of time. 

Tight project timelines: To emphasise the point, the weather can impact deadlines, but these powerful machines help speed up processes even in cold conditions. They have the power and the manoeuvrability to take on a number of tasks.

Generators

There are far more power outages in winter than any other season due to the likes of snowstorms and heavy winds. For those working on outdoor projects or in remote areas, hiring a generator can ensure work continues without interruption. P&L Tool Solutions offers various generator sizes that can be hired according to your power needs. Whether it’s a large commercial project or a small residential repair, a reliable generator will:

• Keep critical equipment powered.
• Maintain lighting for safe working conditions in the darker winter months.
• Provide backup power in the event of outages.

Compaction Plates

Compaction is a process where roads, paths and foundations are flattened so they remain solid and durable for years to come. To do this, certain equipment is required like wacker plates and more. As in winter you tend to get harder and soggier ground, it’s imperative you use compaction equipment to help you.

Luckily for you, we have an array of makes, models and specifications of compaction equipment. Small, medium and large compaction plates are on offer with us so feel free to check out everything we have and make an enquiry.

Scaffolding and Platforms

Scaffolding and platforms are important all year round and can be used for a multitude of projects. For winter construction and property repairs, scaffolding and platforms provide the extra stability and height access required for safe working. For enhanced safety and security measures, consider scaffolding and platforms strongly during the colder months.

Safety Equipment

Winter brings added safety concerns, including ice, slippery surfaces, and freezing temperatures. Ensuring that workers have access to ALL PPE, platforms, scaffolding, props and safety equipment is essential. P&L Tool Solutions offers equipment that helps prevent accidents and supports safety standards on construction sites or personal DIY projects.
