Whether you’re tackling a tight tangle of foliage in your backyard or simply looking to trim your lawn, our brushcutters are sure to help you get the job done right. BS Power stocks and supplies a wide array of gardening tools from brushcutters and lawn trimmers to ride-on mowers and much more. We understand that keeping your garden, lawn, or fields in tip-top shape takes work (back-breaking work, in particular, if you try to handle the task with simple gardening tools).
Our brushcutters handle the heavy lifting of lawn maintenance and help you free up your time and spare your energy, so you can keep your garden looking good with minimal effort. In this quick read, we’ll be covering where our brushcutters work best, as well as a few honourable mentions from BS Power.
Aside from brushcutters, mowers, and more, we also stock and supply an array of construction tools and equipment, helping you build your property from the ground up and maintain it with effective tools and equipment. Whether you’re looking to build a concrete stoop, add a few additions to your home, or simply keep your lawn in order, BS Power has the tools you need to succeed, and all at affordable prices.
Where Brushcutters Work Best
If you’re working with a smaller garden, you won’t need anything super powerful to keep the weeds back. BS Power supplies simple hand-held brushcutters designed for simple lawn maintenance and quick weed-whacking to keep your garden looking good. These low-power options are great for avid gardeners or simple enthusiasts taking care of lawn cleanup once or twice a month.
If your property is a little larger, with wider swaths of weeds to keep back and grass to trim, we offer a range of mid- to high-power brushcutters to tackle this kind of terrain with ease. These models come equipped with more robust engines and durable cutting heads, perfect for clearing overgrown grass, thick brush, and even small saplings. Designed for extended use, they’re comfortable to handle thanks to ergonomic grips and balanced designs that reduce fatigue during long sessions of yard work.
For those maintaining smallholdings, farms, or larger rural properties, our heavy-duty brushcutters are built to go the distance. These models are ideal for thick veld grass, undergrowth, and stubborn vegetation that ordinary trimmers can’t handle. Pair one of these machines with a metal blade attachment, and you’ll have no trouble cutting through dense bush and even light bramble. They’re a favourite among landscapers and professional groundskeepers who need performance they can rely on day after day.
If you’re mostly tending to a well-kept lawn, however, a lighter-duty brushcutter or line trimmer might be the better choice. These are perfect for edging around flowerbeds, pathways, and fences. These are all places your mower might not be able to reach. A model like this will give your lawn that clean, finished look that separates a tidy garden from a truly polished one.
For the average homeowner, versatility is what you’re looking for in a gardening tool, and BS Power’s brushcutter range includes both petrol and electric options to suit different preferences. Petrol models offer the mobility and raw power needed for big jobs or properties without easy access to electricity, while electric and battery-powered models are quieter, cleaner, and ideal for smaller suburban gardens.
No matter your garden’s size or your level of experience, BS Power has a brushcutter to match your needs. Whether you’re reclaiming overgrown ground or perfecting your lawn’s edges, our tools are built to make your job faster, easier, and more efficient. After all, your garden deserves the best, and so do you.

Lawn Maintenance Tips And Tricks
Before you head over to choose the ideal brushcutter for your property, allow us to offer a few useful tips and tips for maintaining your lawn or garden, helping you keep your grass, hedges, and whatever other foliage you’re growing in good condition.
1. Mow And Trim Regularly
As any good gardener will tell you, consistency is key. Keeping your grass trimmed to an even height not only looks neater but also encourages healthy, dense growth. Avoid cutting more than one-third of the grass blade at a time, as this can shock the plant and lead to patchy, brown areas. Use your brushcutters for those tricky spots your mower can’t reach, such as around fences, trees, or flowerbeds.
2. Water Wisely
Deep, infrequent watering is far better than frequent light sprinkling. Aim to water your lawn early in the morning to reduce evaporation and give the grass time to absorb moisture before the heat of the day. Overwatering can lead to shallow root systems and unwanted fungal growth.
3. Feed Your Lawn
Just like any living thing, your lawn needs nutrients. Use a good-quality lawn fertiliser during the growing season, typically in spring and late summer. For an organic option, compost or mulched grass clippings can help enrich the soil naturally.
4. Keep Your Tools Sharp And Clean
A dull brushcutter blade can tear grass rather than cutting it cleanly, leaving it prone to disease. Regularly check your blades, lines, and filters, and clean off debris after every use to extend your equipment’s life and performance.
5. Edge And Aerate
Edging your lawn gives it a crisp, defined look, while aerating helps air and nutrients reach the roots. Use your brushcutter or trimmer to define borders neatly, and aerate your lawn once or twice a year to prevent soil compaction.
6. Control Weeds Early
Don’t let weeds take hold, but rather remove them as soon as they appear. A sharp brushcutter can make quick work of unwanted growth before it spreads, especially in hard-to-reach areas. With these simple and effective maintenance habits, your lawn and garden will stay healthy, easy on the eyes and even easier to manage all year round. Combine these practices with the right BS Power brushcutter, and you’ll have a garden that’s as effortless to maintain as it is beautiful to enjoy.
A Few More Options From BS Power: Brushcutters
If brushcutters aren’t going to cut it for your yard, we also offer a range of ride-on mowers for more industrial-level lawn maintenance. These powerful pieces of equipment are sure to help you get the job done right, offering the ability to cover large stretches of lawn in no time at all, and effectively trimming grasses and removing heftier shrubs and foliage that might get in the way.
For example, we stock the ever-popular Husqvarna powerhouse, the TS114, with ergonomic controls, an adjustable seat, and even an optional bagger. This ride-on mower includes a 95cm deck width and comes with a dual pedal hydrostatic drive. It’s compact-sized and absolutely perfect for tackling suburban lawns with ease. Another standout option is the Husqvarna TS142, a well-balanced midrange model, capable of taking on more ground with its wider deck and robust motor, perfect for operators who are scaling up their mower demands.
With so many options available, we encourage you to take a look through our website and see which ride-on mower option catches your eye. Alternatively, if you find yourself unable to decide which option would be best for you, take a look at one of our helpful mower guides or get in contact and let us help you pick out the perfect mower to match your property.
Alongside our extensive range of tip-tier ride-on mowers, we also offer accessories and replacement parts so you don’t have to break the bank on a brand new mower when your current one has been chugging along for a few years. All models that we stock at BS Power support a variety of handy attachments that can help you improve your mowing sessions and make lawn maintenance even more effective.
For example, a mulching kit or side-discharge plates can prove incredibly useful for finely cutting clippings, allowing you to return valuable organic matter to your lawn and reduce waste. If a neat finish is an absolute must and you don’t want to waste time picking up cuttings after a mowing session, a bagger or grass catcher can be attached to your mower to make the job much easier.
A trailer or cart can also be very useful for towing debris, tools, or garden waste, making cleanup and transport much easier. To improve your lawn’s health, an aerator or spiker can be attached to punch holes in the turf, ensuring better water, oxygen, and nutrient penetration to the roots as you mow.
