What is a winter service?

Apelson engineer cleaning a lawnmower during a winter service Serviced by our expert engineers

As the mowing season ends, your garden power equipment needs a little care before it’s put away for the colder months. A winter service prepares your machine for storage now and gets it ready to start first time when spring arrives.

Our engineers carry out a full check and service tailored to your machine, whether it’s corded, battery or petrol powered. We look for the issues that most commonly develop over winter storage, such as corrosion, blocked fuel systems, dry moving parts and worn components, before they turn into a bigger repair.

Every winter service covers the essentials

Whatever you’re booking in, our engineers start with the same thorough checks before moving on to anything specific to your equipment.

  • Thorough cleaning

    Dirt, debris and grass clippings cleared from the housing and working parts of your machine.

  • Full functional test

    Your machine is run and checked from start to finish, including any attachments.

  • Key component inspection

    Motors, drive systems, gearboxes and safety controls checked, cleaned and lubricated where needed.

  • Petrol engine care

    Fuel lines inspected on every petrol machine, plus carburettor, filter and spark plug work depending on the equipment.
