Services
This can simply be a good service before delivery (in the case of pre-owned), or we can take a more scheduled approach if you know that you are going to be using the equipment heavily at a particular time or on a rota. With the quantity of machines and options it is genuinely impossible to have an accurate price list that covers all the variants.
The Toro GrandStand stand-on mower delivers superior productivity, visibility, and operator comfort in a sleek compact machine. It features a unique suspension system for a smooth ride over the roughest terrains, plus a retractable platform that allows for operation from both stand-on and walk-behind positions.
The DH Series Tractor was designed with the needs of the European homeowner in mind. This tractor has direct collection of grass clippings with the option of changing to Recycler mode right from the seat. No tools, no fuss, just shift a pedal. Our specially designed cutting deck uses two counter-rotating blades to create a powerful airflow that directs grass clippings through the central channel to the rear grass collector.
As a leading worldwide provider of innovative turf, landscape, rental and construction equipment, as well as irrigation solutions, Toro helps customers care for golf courses, sports fields, public green spaces, commercial and residential properties, and agricultural fields. We value the trust customers place in our people and our products, and are proud to partner with many sites and events around the world.
Toro TITAN HD zero turn lawn mowers lets you carry your tools with you get more yard work done in a day. No more runs back to the garage. Equipped with the MyRide suspended operator platform that reduces bumps and vibrations from rough terrain. The TITAN HD 1500 Series mowers deliver durability, professional results and performance at an outstanding value.

Bought my lawn mower here and have taken it back for a winter service. Always knowledgeable staff and they maintain equipment well. New building at the back of the busy Popar Nurseries.

Took my Stihl hla56 back to them under warranty as it stopped working and they tried to blame me for bending the blade even though I've used it 6 times and only ever lay it down on a flat surface or have the blade off the ground when not in use. Seems like they just see it as an opportunity to generate revenue in warranty. Have let Stihl GB know of my dissatisfaction and how quick they are to blame the customer and create an invoice.
Been trimming the same hedges for 13 years using different trimmers and the one I've spent the most money on is the most fragile.

I can't say enough good things about Grasshoppers. I had gone to my local tool repair centre and asked for a T27 Torx bit to fit my Stihl Disc Cutter only to be told they didn't keep anything like that even though they are Stihl main agents. So I visited another couple of places and both said "Sorry mate we don't keep that in stock". My partner suggested Grasshopper so off I trundled not expecting much. I talked to the guy behind the counter and told him what I wanted a to my amazement he came back with one. I asked him "How much do I owe you"? But he said "No you can have it as it's just one of

Called in to ask if they serviced Bosh Electric lawnmowers there were 3 men sitting at there desks, they said they did not because they could not get parts for Bosh anymore. They advised me to call Bosh who would collect and repair it and deliver it back to me. I took the mower to a firm in Writtle who were able to repair it and gave me back the part they had replaced to get it working again so I am puzzled why Grasshopper could not get the part.

Thanks guys for the advice whilst purchasing a pole hedge trimmer and saw. You saved me from making an expensive mistake and this cordless tool is excellent. I’ll be back for the lawnmower when I save up
