Among the many tools that are recommended to keep in your garden, brushcutters are always a useful addition to any garden shed. But beyond home applications and DIY uses, these powerful cutters are also recognised as industrial tools that can be used in many different commercial industries. In urban landscaping especially, the brushcutter allows for a certain ease of use that can make massive jobs that much simpler.

 

With BS Power’s wide selection of brushcutter brands and types, landscapers working in the city can easily keep their properties neat and tidy, ensure safety and security, and enhance the appearance of their place of business.

 

Using Brushcutters For Green Corridors

 

Green corridors have to be very well-maintained, with constant supervision and upkeep. Dedicated scheduled maintenance is a must for any building or plot of land in urban and suburban environments. But in urban environments especially, the high density of people, pollution and constant traffic can speed up wear and tear in such a way that it makes it difficult and expensive to repair any issues after some time. So constant oversight is needed, and care is a must. This is why it’s important to have a good landscaping service that can put their brushcutters to good use, trimming hedges and controlling overgrowth, as well as doing whatever routine maintenance is needed to keep exteriors clean and plots secure.

 

BS Powers ensures that you use the best quality machinery to do your city scaping and urban upkeep. Hardware and tools like brushcutters allow you to work at a larger scale, where heights are extensive, the area is busy and foliage can be dense. Unlike with smaller local gardens in the back of family homes, cutting overgrowth on city businesses or public buildings can often prove quite a task, as it requires vigilance to your local surroundings.

 

With so many people moving in and out, you’ll likely have to use your brushcutters during the business day. If this is the case, you’ll have to ensure that you’re paying attention to dispose of overgrowth safely, and equally make sure that you’re wielding your tools safely so that pedestrians aren’t disturbed.

 

When landscaping, safety is a necessity — especially when operating in the inner city where it is difficult to interrupt traffic flow and important to refrain from interfering with open business places. But with industrial-level BS Powers brushcutters you can guarantee that landscaping will be completed swiftly. If you’re working with professionals who know how to properly handle the equipment and put it to good use, then you’ll be pleased to find that the job comes to completion faster and more proficient than if you were using any old garden tools. In the city in particular, overgrowth and foliage tend to be tricky, stubborn alien vegetation and weeding that can get tangled up in roof shackles, plumbing pipes or gates.

 

 

Why You Should Use Brushcutters for Inner-City Maintenance

 

Leaving your overgrowth for too long may lead to blocked drainage and resultant stormwater wastage, sewerage problems or flooding. Similarly, overgrown vegetation around fences and gates can easily disengage motors and cause breakages in your motorised systems. This ultimately presents security threats and safety problems for your staff, customers and passersby.

 

Overgrowth can also lead to a messy outward appearance that will discourage visitors from stepping in and engaging, which is not good if your intention is to have more foot traffic moving through your business or site. Finally, a lack of maintenance and supervision of vegetation in city spaces can also lead to the slow degradation of your building, as you might find that certain plants take route and compromise the foundations of your building or put pressure on your structural frameworks.

 

Using your brushcutters monthly and then again whenever problems arise will help you to prevent any of these frustrating issues mentioned above from unfolding and keep your space in good working order so that you can go and get on with your day.

 

So, if you’re committed to keeping your space in check and your property in good stead and at a high value, then consider kitting out your landscaping team with some of the country’s best power tools.

 

Maintaining Urban Landscapes

 

Efficient and organised urban planning can invite tourism, heightened business, cultural exchange and diversity. By maintaining the safety, aesthetics and functionality of your local neighbourhood you will naturally find an improved sense of community and efficiency. There are many ways to maintain your landscapes, some of the more common ways are through the provision of efficient waste management, policing and transportation services.

 

Beyond that, the regular care and cleaning of public infrastructure can assist with keeping locals happy and business running as usual. There are a huge number of environmental, social and environmental reasons to keep up urban landscapes. Whether it’s the structural safety that’s being surveyed, or the outer gardens being trimmed, these kinds of asset management methods will ensure that you maintain the value of your lands and keep your residents safe.

 

When urban landscapes are well taken care of, they also invite community interactions, recreational activities and exciting educational opportunities. Some of the best advantages of keeping these spaces up to standard are listed below.

 

Social Benefits

 

People are always happier to engage with their communities when the landscape is cared for. Even in a city, people take notice of the inclusion of green corridors and other natural environments like parks, walkways and courtyards. By facilitating a space where the public can gather, you can encourage citizens to spend more time outdoors.

 

Restaurants, seating provisions and well-kempt walkways allow you to move easily through the often busy city. That opportunity to take a breather and enjoy the advantages of an outdoor space is essential to ensure a sense of communal well-being and interconnectedness among both locals and visitors.

 

In addition, a rich and robust culture can often lead to landmark status in certain areas and can help to ensure that neighbourhood upkeep happens constantly, helping the local style and history to be protected. Cultural heritage is then maintained and the city’s lifestyles or scenes can survive and be preserved.

 

Economic Benefits

 

By putting your power tools and brushcutters to use, you essentially prevent the degradation of your surrounding land. This allows you to not only save money on infrastructural repairs but also prevent accidents or emergencies from breaking out due to collapse, historical erosion, or wear and tear. When these things are maintained, property value in the local area will improve and invite more tourists, boosting local economies. Maintenance of an asset like property is vital to continue driving investment into the area, encouraging local development and supporting locals.

 

Health Benefits

 

It is widely proven that access to clean, green spaces can assist with mitigating anxiety and improving mental well-being. Green corridors also invite people to partake in physical activities like jogging, walking, group sports and other kinds of club get-togethers. This enhances mental health, reducing stress and depression. This is a useful reprieve if you find yourself commuting day after day to and from work. After a long day moving in and around skyscrapers can be exhausting, so it is important to create a space where people can breathe in healthy oxygen as a result of reduced pollution, plant life and healthy traffic flow.

 

Climate Resilience

 

Water management, healthcare and landscaping all contribute to producing a more environmentally conscious space. Air quality, temperature and water quality all have major impacts on the health of local humans, animals and plants. A healthy space like this will prevent A high number of well-trimmed trees and hedges and also offer shade that shades people from sun exposure, while also releasing oxygen and soaking up carbon dioxide, ultimately regulating the heat and improving air filtration — this also reduces the overall urban heat island effect.

 

Less litter and less traffic also keep local animals safe, mitigating species endangerment and allowing cultural and biodiversity conservation. Gardens also provide for various plants and animals, hosting flowers that feed pollinators like bees and butterflies with essential food crucial for the ecosystem to thrive.

 

Safety and Accessibility

 

When areas have good visibility, traffic flow and attractive, well-maintained grounds, crime decreases and economies grow. A safer population makes it easier for everyone to visit the space, especially people with disabilities, children and seniors.

 

Greater accessibility allows for better engagement and an influx of people and cultures that define metropolitan areas and enhance cross-culturalism and inclusiveness. When crime is reduced, communities are welcomed and your basic needs are met, we get more resilient cities that provide for better environmental, social and healthy lifestyles.

 

 

Invest in BS Power Brushcutters

 

BS Power brushcutters are both affordable and effective, ranging from approximately R2500 on sale and R17000 for the full setup. Naturally, depending on your needs, you can pick and choose which option will suit your site best. It’s always recommended that you survey your area first so that you can assess the extent of the damage — from there, you’ll know exactly how much manpower and horsepower is necessary to get the job done.

 

If you have any additional questions, you can check in with BS Power consultants to determine exactly which specifications should be checked off in order to complete the task. BS Power hosts many different brands, but our popular brushcutter brands include Husqvarna and Stihl, two long standing and well-established manufacturers who have a reputation for rigging their tools with only the best and most efficient features and accessories.

 

If you are struggling with weeds, overgrown foliage and even some poorly-placed or inconveniently located trees, then you can purchase a set of brushcutters. Brushcutters will help you remove any unwanted rubble and plants, especially the denser vegetation, fibrous grass and weeds that are difficult to reach.

 

Brushcutters are ergonomically designed to allow you to move the tool overhead or at an angle, helping you reach difficult areas and hack away at the things that your lawn mower wouldn’t be able to reach. Others also look into purchasing trimmers, which are also available at BS Power, although trimmers are best used to polish and refine edges after the major cutting has been completed.

 

Unlike trimmers, brushcutters are more highly powered and better-equipped to deal with rougher textures and thicker densities. Trimmers are great for low grass and hedges, but not necessarily overgrowth. It is important to use the right tool for the job, as you may find that using your at-home trimmers on industrial scale overgrowth and thickets will only overheat your engine and dull your blades. Using the right pair of brushcutters, however, will ensure that battery voltage, power and speed are all considered and thus prepared for tougher jobs.

 

Be sure to take a look at the product description when shopping for the right item for you, as this will help you decipher whether the item is suitable for either a quiet neighbourhood or your large-scale hauls.
