Lawn Scarifying
Hi, I have a commercial lawn scarifier and I am going to start offering to scarify people's lawns locally.
If you want to have a great looking lawn that is healthy and better survives our hot summers, scarifying once or twice a year is a really crucial part of your maintenance programme.
For an average lawn I would charge $150 however depending on the size this could be slightly more if you have a large lawn.
I am also happy to advise on the right weedkiller, fertiliser and seed (you don't get them from Mitre 10!) and I can apply them for you a couple of weeks before scarifying if you need it. Cost for this would depend on your lawn but I'll do it for a lot less than anyone else and allow you to access the best chemicals on the market.
Please either give me a call on 027 519 8146 or email me at mrmbennett@hotmail.com

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
