Bowling Green Maintenance for Oldham Bowling Club
Professional crown green mower servicing and repair for Oldham Bowling Club. 7 miles from Paul's workshop in Hyde. Serving clubs in the Oldham & District Crown Green Bowling League.
About Oldham Bowling Club
Oldham Bowling Club is a prominent two-green facility that serves one of the largest bowling communities in the borough. The dual-green operation requires a more substantial equipment fleet than most clubs, with two cylinder mowers, a rotorake, and various hand tools all needing regular maintenance. The Pennine-edge location brings additional moisture and cooler temperatures that promote dense grass growth but also increase wear on mowing equipment. Seven miles from PGT Repairs, the club arranges pre-season servicing each February.
Operating two greens means the equipment fleet works double duty. Pre-season servicing of all machinery must be completed by mid-March to allow a month of preparation before the April opening.
Crown Green Maintenance Requirements
Crown greens demand a cylinder mower that can follow the contour of the crown — the raised centre that gives these greens their name. The mower must cut at a consistent 4-6mm height while navigating the subtle slopes, requiring precise blade adjustment and a well-maintained roller mechanism.
Crown green maintenance is as much about understanding the contours as it is about mowing. The crown must be maintained at a consistent gradient — any deviation creates bias that affects play. This means the mower setup must be exact, and any wear in the height adjustment mechanism needs prompt attention.

“Paul attended our home address to repair and service our ride on mower. From the first contact I could tell Paul would be a good choice. He arrived early, got stuck in and had it up and running in a few hours. Despite the heat and awkward nature of the repair, he kept on until the job was done. A really good bloke to deal with, straight as a die and well priced work. I'd definately recommend him without hesistation”

“My petrol mower was running rough and needed a service. Phoned Paul, told him what was required and brought the mower over to his workshop early Saturday afternoon. It was ready for me to pick up 24hrs later. Price for the work was very reasonable as well - Thoroughly recommend getting in touch with Paul if you need your garden equipment servicing!”
