- Spring 2024 in the UK has been very wet, this is the van set up for lawn care and gardening that has kept me busy, productive and efficient. As we head into summer some of these tools will change with the hopefully drier weather to further improve what we do.
Thanks for watching.
Nice set up mate! I always like to carry more than I need! Try to be as prepared as possible!
Cheers 👍 definitely worth the hassle of loading and unloading to have spares. Thanks for watching
Nice 👍
Cheers 👍👍
Nice One Nathan Thanks again
Just a little van tour although today it was rammed with a lot of crap🤣 cheers mate
Nice, smart setup…I’m very similar . On my mowing days I’ve got 3 mowers, 2 strimmers and blowers and on hedgecutting days multiple cutters are with me too. My dad was in the garden maintenance business and he always said take out 2/3 mowers, 2/3 hedgecutters so you don’t have to worry in case any issues when you’re out so u don’t waste time and can crack on. And yep, everything’s locked away at night👍🏼
Definitely mate, spares for spares and keep the day moving forward 👍👍
Nathan I keep 3 of everything in my van incase I have any breakdowns on site. Fire the breakdown into the back and straight back into action. I keep my van alarmed aswell fella.
Great set up.

Cheers mate, locked and alarmed 👌👌
Nice set up mate👍
Thanks 👍
Awesome set up👌🏼
All looks a mess when I watch it back 😅
😂
i carry tyre wraps , r clips , jubilee clips , litter picker + bags , spare strimmer cable . dog cage .
Sounds ideal👍think I have most of that except the dog cage 😅
@@LewisgardenservicesLtd added security to keep gardening tools safe lol 😂 gsd optional….
@dogmangreengrass736 🤣🤣👍
Nice set up! I try to have 2 of everything in the van, i also unload everything except hand tools because who's got time for that 😔
I actually wish my hand tools would get nicked... sorry no spades so no digging today 🤣 hope you're doing well Jordan 👍
Having watched many of your videos and you singing the praise of Etesia I bought a Pro 51x earlier this year, been a god send on the wet grass although does mark a little when the ground is soft. I'd be interested to see a overview video on the Pro 53 if you do get one. I've done my first round of mowing today with back out with the Honda Pro (roller version) and will be sticking with this now on domestic jobs, keeping the Etesia for commercial sites and wet weather days... as you've said the collection particularly in the wet of Etesia is unmatched!
I've only used variations of the 46 for their pedestrian mowers but glad the 51 worked for you👍does look tidy👌 cheers for watching
Nice set up. I'm in my first year, I've got a little vauxhall combo and its a struggle 😂. Everything fits, until i need to put a filled waste bag in... 😂
Good luck with the business mate👍have you tried chucking on the roof😅 we've all been there
@@LewisgardenservicesLtd thanks mate! Haha its definitely going to happen 😅
Just a word of warning nath the etesia pro 53 is a great mower but… if the hydro pump goes wrong it’s scrap mate it’s mega expensive to replace… but if you buy new then you should be covered with a good warranty 😊 so just something to think about. 👍 plus I was wondering where you can get replacement brushes from for the moss brush Hyundai am in need of some 😮….
Good to know thanks👍 have you tried their main site? You must have done a bit with it🤔 still going to try and swap mine up for a road sweeper head when I get some time
Clients don't realise the amount of equipment we have to use,a lot more than other tradepeople, electrician,plumber.
We have to plan every day which gear,supplies,etc,etc.
Be nice to have a Thunderbirds pod for everyday😂
It is surprising how much you need, then you get asked to work for £12 per hour🤣
Hi can you do a video on sharping shers regards
Shears? Not my skillset sorry, using or sharpening 😅 cheers for watching 👍👍
Nathan, may i ask how you find the battery blower BGA 200 ? with the backpack battery, is it a pain in the arse when just wanting to do bits or do you use a smaller blower for quick jobs ? want to upgrade handheld blower to AP system but battery life is shit , i guess if using all battery kit just switching the cord from one to another isn’t a big issue, also which battery do you use and any good ? sorry for all the questions, big outlay if a pain in the arse 😂
Mine is the older model and has been great, I find the battery lasts ok for just going around after regular maintenance but would drain battery on the big jobs. I've the ap300s running my strimmer and trimmers mostly now and the ar3000 backpack runs the blower, only charge it every 2 or 3 days using it with the blower and we rattle through a few maintenance jobs. Takes no time to sling backpack over one shoulder and tidy up, cost is a consideration but I've added to what I've got over the last 4 years
@@LewisgardenservicesLtd cheers mate, one to think about, got loads of battery kit so can use AR3000 on commercial strimmer jobs perhaps 🤔
@Andrew-ds9ms if you've the batteries blower is worth it imo
honda pro honda izzy and stihl kombi, in a nutshel
Must be a big nutshell 😅
@@LewisgardenservicesLtd yes my nuts are huge! lol
That's Henchman ladder you have, right ? Which size do you manage to put in your van ?
10foot and they fit perfectly, have 16s that have to go on the roof👍 great kit. Cheers
Minted👌
has it stopped raining yet😅?
☀️☀️☀️has arrived 👌👍
How many times have you whacked your head on the tripod steps ?!
I'm 5'9 maybe 5'10....never unless someone has tried to put them back and done a poor job. Perfect fit👌
Etesia?? Is brand in UK? Or in states?? Why aLot of u like it so much?
It's a French manufacturer, not sure if they're in America but a few of us use them who see the cost as something worth paying for a solid little mower.What are you using ? Cheers
Sorry, I am American so maybe I missed an important point: but you take it all out and out it all back because...of ..what? I live in London, so would assume theft (because the police couldn't care less about tool robbery). But is that a problem - in Wales?🤔🫣
It's a problem everywhere unfortunately, probably more so here. I wouldn't leave any kit on the van, had a van nicked years and even replacing the hand tools and mower boxes was a pain. As usual insurance for the vans worth wanted to screw us over and the police weren't remotely interested 🙄
@@LewisgardenservicesLtd In America, in New York City specifically, we started vigilante groups to police dangerous areas eg The Guardian Angels. Is it coming to this?
