Maintenance & Repairs

Proper maintenance of your garden equipment is key to ensuring its longevity and reliable performance, depending on how often you use it and the conditions it faces. We recommend an annual service to keep everything running smoothly, along with routine checks on engine oil, using genuine products available at our stores.

For servicing or warranty support, you can easily book by giving us a call or completing the form below. We’re here to make the process as convenient as possible for you.
