Landscape Contractor Magazine is now a Bronze Partner with Landscaping Victoria Master Landscapers.
We’re looking forward to a long and successful partnership with LVML, and we admit we’re feeling pretty
chuffed about it. Meanwhile, it doesn’t seem that long ago the term ‘granny flat’ had a vaguely derogatory implication and a granny flat
wasn’t much more than one step above a cubbyhouse. A granny flat these days is a serious building proposition and required to meet
the same building and health standards as any other accommodation. Marc Worner’s had a look at the state of play with granny flats in the modern world, and it’s an eye-opener. Elsewhere in the issue Andrew Tulloch has put an AEG cordless post-hole digger
through its paces, and it’s fairly astonishing. Augurs usually need to be powered by a small petrol engine to survive in the pro
landscaping world, or at the very least, 240 volts. But such is the technological advances of brushless motors and lithium-ion
batteries that AEG’s 36-volt Fusion digger is a serious, professional-standard augur that’s light, strong, and, best of all, safe. That
thing digs like a beagle with a bone! We’ve also test driven the Ferris® ISX™ 3300 Zero Turn Mower and no introduction is
needed for this brand. John Gabriel’s had a look at hardscape materials and the importance of choosing carefully. Arved Matt’s done a thorough job of outlining hazardous manual handling and aspects which need particular consideration in landscaping and Anna Turner, as usual, has some very worthwhile tips on improving business efficiency – in this case the possible benefits
of applying some not-too-difficult technology. Finally, this issue welcomes a new contributor. Jonathon Garner comes on
board, taking over from Paul Kirkpatrick.
