Everything You Need to Update Your Home and Garden

Home is where the heart is, so you’ll want to take care of it! It's important to keep your home clean and tidy for any number of reasons - it promotes mental and physical wellbeing, it makes it easier to find things, and it helps you stay productive when you're stuck for something to do. On this page, you'll find everything you need to keep both your home and garden looking at their very best, so browse above or keep reading to learn more!

DIY Tools

Whether you need to fix something that’s broken or you just want to improve your home, you’ll need some reliable DIY tools. If you’re planning some home improvements, this will give you the freedom to do whatever you want. You can mount cabinets, put up shelves, and even transform any room in your home with a new lick of paint. However, what’s more important is that you have several tools available to protect yourself in the event that something breaks.

A quality cordless drill is the centre of any good toolkit. They double up as drills and electric screwdrivers, with a massive variety of different drill bits available to help you tackle any task. If you’re not sure where to start, pick up a model that comes with a large accessory kit, like this 151-piece set from MYLEK. It includes sanding drums, twist drills, masonry bits, a range of screwdriver bits, wire brushes, and more. This will ensure you’re well-prepared for just about anything!

Another good versatile tool is a paint sprayer. A paint sprayer will allow you to take care of big painting jobs in a matter of minutes. If used properly, they’ll give a perfectly even coat of paint that doesn’t drip and run; and they’ll do it many times faster than a brush. Most people use their paint sprayers on their garden fence, but you can use them indoors if you’re careful. This means they can be used to paint walls, furniture, and anything else you can think of!

Garden and Outdoors

Gardening is rewarding work, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make it a little easier for yourself! Our garden range includes lawn feed, weedkillers, fertilisers, patio heaters, patio cleaning, and furniture – if you’ve got green fingers, you’ll definitely want to check it out!

Pro-Kleen Patio Cleaning

Pro-Kleen makes the nation’s favourite patio cleaners, and once you’ve used them, you’ll see why! From their best-selling Simply Spray and Walk Away, which quickly gets rid of green mould and algae from any hard surface, to their max-strength lichen-destroying Black Spot Remover, they’re all no-nonsense cleaning products that get the job done.

Iron Sulphate

Iron sulphate is a super-effective lawn feed that makes grass grow lush and green. It strengthens every blade of grass, promoting healthy growth and making your lawn feel soft. If your grass is strong and healthy, it’ll find it easier to fight off pests and disease, too. This helps your lawn look like a perfect green carpet all year round, without being spoiled by yellowish or bare patches. One other benefit of iron sulphate is that it makes soil slightly more acidic, which naturally deters a lot of pests like chafer grubs and leatherjackets. If your lawn is the centrepiece of your garden, then iron sulphate is essential.

Garden Furniture

Gardens are made for relaxing in. There’s nothing quite like enjoying some peace and quiet in your garden on a sunny day when you can look out and take in the results of all your hard work. Some stylish garden furniture can really tie your garden together and gives you a great place to relax! Choose from benches, bistro sets, and garden parasols – there’s something to suit every garden!

Weedkiller

Weeds are a year-round problem for any garden, so it pays to have a good bottle of weedkiller around the house for when you need it. The most effective weedkiller is glyphosate (in fact, it’s so effective that it needs to be used with care, so it’s only for experienced or professional gardeners). It soaks into the weed through their leaves and stops them from producing essential proteins that they need to grow, This kills the weed right down to the root, so it’s ideal for widespread application.

Hot Tub Cleaning

If you want to take relaxing in your garden to the next level, there aren’t many better ways to do it than jumping in the hot tub! If you have a hot tub, it’s really important to regularly clean and maintain it to ensure it keeps running properly. Our hot tub store offers professional-quality hot tub supplies from British brands Pro-Kleen and Cleenly. It includes water treatments, surface cleaners, and hot tub system cleaners, so you can keep your hot tub in top condition inside and out.

Home Cleaning

We stock everything you need to keep your house clean from top to bottom. Each room in your house will need slightly different cleaning products. For example, your bathroom will likely suffer from mould and mildew because it’ll be more humid than other rooms. This means you’ll need some special mould and mildew remover to keep it clean and hygienic. If you have carpets, you’ll want to make sure you have some carpet shampoo that can be used both with and without a carpet cleaning machine (just in case). If you have pets, you might want some specialised pet-friendly carpet shampoo!

Of course, it’s not just your home that needs to be cleaned – your appliances will need regular maintenance, too! That’s why our home cleaning range includes washing machine cleaners, sink and drain cleaners, and an all-purpose descaler that you can use on almost any appliance.

Clothes Airer

One of the things about the Great British weather is that it doesn’t tend to stay great for that long! If rain is forecast, it can be a nightmare to try and dry your washing, especially if you don’t have a tumble dryer. Even then, a tumble dryer doesn’t make clothes feel fresh in the same way that a natural breeze does. That’s why a heated clothes airer is such a handy item to have around the house! They’re essentially heated clothes horses that help your clothes dry out naturally. The Homefront model is especially useful as it comes with a zippable cover which keeps the warm air from the clothes airer circulating around your washing. This gives you a quicker and more efficient dry!
