Do I need the Basic or Pro kit?
If you're a sole trader working alone, the Basic kit covers everything you legally need. If you employ staff (even one person), the Pro kit adds training materials, induction checklists, and ongoing compliance tools that demonstrate due diligence.
Is this compliant with UK and Irish law?
Yes. All documents reference the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, PUWER 1998, Noise Regulations 2005, Vibration Regulations 2005, COSHH Regulations 2002, and Work at Height Regulations 2005. The Pro kit includes an Ireland Safety Statement compliant with the SHWW Act 2005.

The Basic Kit (£49) includes 9 core documents as print-ready PDFs — your H&S policy, risk assessments, COSHH assessments, and compliance guide. The Pro Kit (£79) includes all 19 documents plus editable Word files, training materials, fire risk assessment, PPE assessment, Ireland Safety Statement, and annual review checklist.
What if regulations change?
All documents include version dates. We monitor UK and Irish regulatory changes and offer free updates to kit buyers when significant changes occur.
Do I get a refund if it's not what I expected?
As a digital download, all sales are final once the file is downloaded. That's why we offer a free sample — download it first to check the quality and format before purchasing.
What Landscaping Business Owners Say
"The risk assessments actually mentioned strimmers and hedge cutters and chainsaws — not just generic 'machinery' like everything else I'd seen. That's what I needed."
M.T., Leeds
"Got the Pro kit because I wanted the Word files. Took maybe an hour to go through and add my details. Honestly expected worse."
J.P., Cork
"My insurance company wanted to see COSHH assessments for the weedkillers I use. These were already done with the right safety data. Just had to tick a few boxes."
A.W., Bristol
