We take a personal approach at Wiltshire Robotic Mowers. It starts with a free site visit to assess your garden and determine if a robotic mower is the right solution. From there, we’ll recommend the best model for your lawn and provide an accurate quote for supply and installation—tailored specifically to you.
Where will the base station be situated.
The base station needs to be situated where there is a 13 amp electric supply, either inside or an outdoor waterproof socket within 8 metres of the proposed site.
What about obstacles and trees within the lawn.
The mower uses intelligent bump sensors to navigate around obstacles. As long as an object is at least 100mm high, the mower will gently touch it and change direction. For upright trees, it will make light contact and move away. If a tree has spreading surface roots, we can digitally map an exclusion zone to keep the mower clear.
Can the mower cross paths.
The mower can cross paths that are level with the lawn and have a flat, hard surface. For gravel paths, tarmac, or concrete driveways, we can digitally map a crossing route during installation to guide the mower safely across.
What if I have a lawn separate to the main one.
It is possible to map multiple laws. wire in a separate lawn, you would need to pick up the mower and place it on that lawn and when the cut has finished return it to the main lawn to recharge.
What if I have adjoining multiple lawns.
Depending on the mower it is possible to cut up to 8 adjoining lawns, they will be programmed to be cut in a sequence with the mower returning to the main lawn to recharge when necessary.
I have a swimming pool/pond in my garden, or a drop off edge on the lawn.
The mower would need to be wired 90cm away from the edge of these to avoid any chance of the mower going in.
What preparation needs to be done before installation.
A 13amp power supply needs to be available within 8 metres of the base station position, just before installation the lawn should be mowed to normal cut height and edges trimmed.
Cost of Installation.
Installation costs will vary from site to site depending on size and number of lawns, length of perimeter wire needed, but should be between £300 and £600 plus cost of wire pegs and joiners.
