We know that March has been… interesting… for weather, but believe it or not, summer IS on its way.
Our landscaping category manager, Andrew Hirst, has put together some tips and products you’ll need for summer on-site. The only other thing you’ll need is your swimsuit.
Fit and forget gardens
Customers like the easy life (let’s face it, who doesn’t?) so the idea of fit and forget is absolutely ideal this summer.
Think artificial grass, composite decking and artificial hedges. They’re hard wearing and look just like the real thing. Nobody’ll ever know…
Ceramic tiles
Ceramic paving is set to revolutionise the garden this summer. That’s right – revolutionise! It’s a specialised tile that can be printed with surface patterns which replicate different stones such as granite or limestone.
So it looks the part, and it’s tough too.
Orange isn’t the new black
Orange fence panels are, like, sooo last year. The fence panel market has come on leaps and bounds, so forget those flimsy orange panels of the past.
Swot up
Add more strings to your bow by going to a product training course – you’ll impress your customers with your up-to-the-minute product knowledge. We can recommend Grono’s School of Grass or the School of Resin.
Back to school you go!
The need for speed
Marshall’s Drivesys driveway system chops installation time in half – great news for both you and your customers. Time for a Pina Colada.
Indian Stone
It’s a natural stone product with an ethical supply chain. What’s more, when you buy, you support charity initiatives in India, such as building toilets and supporting orphanages.
