All Garden Tools & Accessories

To prolong the life of your garden tools, store them in a dry, sheltered space such as a shed, garage or garden storage box. Tools should be clean and dry before being put away to prevent rust and wood decay. For added longevity, consider hanging tools to protect their edges and keep them off damp ground. A tool rack or wall hooks can help keep everything organised and within easy reach.

Looking after your garden tools ensures they remain safe, effective and long-lasting.

Follow the below instructions to get the best from your tools:

Clean after use: Remove soil, sap and moisture from blades and handles
Dry thoroughly: Prevents rust and wooden handles from rotting
Sharpen blades: Use a sharpening tool or whetstone for secateurs and shears
Sterilise hand tools: If your secateurs have come into contact with contaminated plant material use a suitable disinfectant and clean the blades thoroughly.
Oil moving parts: A little light oil keeps joints smooth
Store properly: Keep them out of the weather and away from damp surfaces
