The Advent of Quiet Gardening

E-gardens’ focus and founding principle have always been to be a leader in zero emissions gardening. To achieve this, our obvious choice was to invest purely in electric power tools and recharge them using renewable energy sources like solar panels.

Using electric tools, however, has the added benefit of generating low levels of noise, far below the standard average of petrol-powered tools.

Lawnmowers, leaf blowers and hedge trimmers are usually sources of tremendous levels of noise. But not for us.

More and more customers choose us for our zero-emissions policy but soon realise the benefits of low noise levels.

Apartments, office blocks, schools, are choosing us for the quietness.

In these fast-changing times in which more and more people are working and studying remotely from the comfort of their homes, a quiet, low-noise gardening service can make a difference.

Petrol engines can be particularly disruptive during zoom calls. Business and work meetings, online classes for teachers and students alike, job interviews, all rely on a quiet environment to be efficient and successful.

Stay-at-home parents can also enjoy a few minutes of relaxation while their babies keep sleeping undisturbed by our gardeners.

In the last couple of years, we have received a lot of praise for our silent gardening services.

Who can benefit from quiet gardening and in which situation does it truly make a difference?

Here are a few examples based on our experience:

  • Stay-at-home parents
  • People working remotely
  • Teachers and students
  • Offices
  • Roof gardens
  • Communal gardens
  • Schools
  • Domestic and wild animals

Petrol leaf blowers and lawnmowers can permanently damage your hearing

That’s right, quiet gardening is not only great for relaxation and focus but also for your health.

Petrol-powered tools, besides polluting and smelling badly, produce levels of noise higher than the safe threshold beyond which our hearing gets permanently damaged.

An increasing amount of research is being carried out on the noise levels of gardening equipment. Communities around the world have begun restricting the use of petrol gardening tools, particularly focusing on leaf blowers and lawnmowers.

It has been proven that petrol tools produce disruptive levels of noise even at large distances. Electric tools dramatically reduce the damaging effects of gardening on the local community, including domestic and wild animals.
