Increased Etesia territories for Sharrocks

Etesia UK has announced that Sharrocks has extended its current areas in Birmingham, Shropshire and Staffordshire to now include the areas of South Lancashire, Merseyside, Greater Manchester and Cheshire.

Sharrocks is a specialist supplier of tractors, professional and domestic turf machinery and both agricultural and arboricultural equipment. For over 55 years the family owned business, which is now in its fourth generation, has delivered a trusted service throughout the Midlands, North of England & North Wales.

The company, which has a Northern depot in Wigan, Manchester and a Midlands depot in Sandbach, near Stafford is experienced with the full range of Etesia products and is geographically well-placed to offer an excellent customer experience for sales and after-sales support, spare parts and service.

Sharrocks has replaced the previous dealer in these areas and this new announcement comes after a hugely successful debut year as an Etesia dealer.

“We’ve been a recognised Etesia dealer for just over a year now and I couldn’t have asked for more,” said managing director James Sharrock. “The support from Etesia has been fantastic and the products have been incredibly well received from so many contractors and local authorities.

“They are expertly designed machines which have consistently proved themselves over the years. Our customer base always comment on their performance, their low vibration levels and their great longevity - there is also a very good acceptance on spare part prices. In my opinion they are products designed for this market rather than being a domestic machine made heavier to cope with commercial application – which is what the vast majority of lawnmowers in this sector are.”

The complete range of Etesia equipment is now available for both hire and purchase from Sharrocks, who will also take on responsibility for all parts, servicing and warranty for current users.

Thank you for everybody's response.
To clarify, I am not looking to compete with franchises across the country, that will never go down well. However, I do have a handful of customers, as they get to know me, becoming interested in…"

"I think that if you are trying to compete against the nationals, then you need to see what they do. From what I have seen, they typically spend no more than 10min per average size garden and use 1 handheld spreader worth of granular weed/feed. They…"

"The local lawn treatment to us starts from £15 per treatment and they seem very well reviewed. Some of the national franchises aren't that much more than that either so i'd guess a minimum price of £50 might be too high. Great if you can get it…"

"Thanks for your replies, I'll see if I can get the pulley off at the weekend. Hopefully if it is the bearing I can just replace that, but I've got a feeling I'll need to buy the whole assembly."

"A lot of variable here.
Unfortuately I think you may have little uptake at that price bracket given what some of the national franchises charge....

Hi there,I wonder if anyone else has had this problem with their Toro Timemaster. I took a short video (YouTube link below) of what's happening when the blade lever is engaged. The brake arm is shaking around like mad. It still cuts, but struggles…

Hedge Cutting November?

I have been very fortunate this season, being inundated with work. I have my regular customers who I mainly mow their grass for. Throughout the season, I have had calls with more work, which I have tried to accomodate. I am now in a situation where…
