Find a garden tool repair professional near you

There are many ways to find out if your garden tool has a problem and needs repair. The easiest issue to spot is a broken handle which can happen to rakes, shovels, and hoes. Your water hose also needs repair as soon as you notice a leak or tiny spurts of water from a damaged section of the hose. Rust is also easy to spot which can occur to just about any garden tool.

How long it takes to repair a garden tool all depends on the type of device and the extent and severity of the damage. Most garden tool repairs can be completed within two to three hours if it's a simple case of replacing damaged parts or patching holes and leaks. If, however, you need to clean away years of rust buildup or sharpen extremely dulled edges of your cutting tools, you may need to allow for additional time.

Whether you're a gardening expert or just starting to get into it, you need a team of garden tools in order to maintain your garden and lawn properly. Some of the most common garden tools required for all sorts of gardening work include shovels, hoes, rakes, water hoses, and trowels. These garden tools come in an array of sizes, brands, and models to suit various needs and purposes.

Regular maintenance is vital to maximise your garden tool's performance and prolong its life. After every use, make sure to scrub your tools thoroughly to avoid any mud and dirt residue then let them dry completely overnight. You can also use sandpaper to eliminate splinters and bumps, smoothen out any shabby wooden handles, and lightly polish the metal. Lastly, remember to apply a light coat of oil and lubricant to your tools periodically to avoid rust and cracking.
