Japanese acer tree pruning
I have been asked to prune this Japanese acer. It's magnificent but is spreading over a large area of the front garden and in summer seems all consuming to the client. I did lightly prune it in summer, but they are asking for a much more drastic prune. Can experts in tree pruning, and especially this type of acer which I know don't normally get heavily pruned let me know how best to tackle it? When it's in full leaf it's a mat of green but I don't know how easy it would be to remove areas of…

Tennis court moss killer
I've been asked to quote for treating some light moss on 3700sqm of tarmac tennis courts. For smaller domestic jobs I have always used an acetic acid cleaner to good affect (eg. Algon), however, I am a bit worried about the lingering vinegar smell at a regularly used tennis club.I have used other cleaners in the past, with varying degrees of success, but to be honest none have been as reliable as the acid-based cleaners. I am considering using Sapphire for this particular job, as it works out…

Stihl HSA 45 Hedge Trimmer
I have a Lidl 18 volt hedge cutter that I use for dead heading, light trimming etc - I use a Kombi as my main cutter.I was going to replace it with an Einhell 18 volt but then I noticed the Stihl HSA 45. Has anyone used one? I considered the Stihl HSA 55 but it's too heavy for this work.I am weighing up not having a removable battery against Stihl being better quality. I have only ever used one battery so run time shouldn't be an issue.

Westermann?? Other mechanical moss brushes?... What actually works??
Hello all,I hope everyone is well! I'm considering buying a Westermann sweeper to tackle moss on tarmac driveways (after spraying) - I was just looking for any feedback on the machine or similar tools. I have a couple of the Stihl combi brushes but depending on the condition of the tarmac, do not overly rate them. I have a small AS sweeper that is OK but doesn't se to have the grunt and is time consuming at best. Can anyone recommend something that actually does a good job? Thank you all in…
