Expert adviceUnderground sprinkler systems.

Installing an underground sprinkler

system will be much easier if you

start with some basic information

and a well thought-out plan.

First, find out your home’s water

flow rate in gallons per minute

(GPM). This will determine how

many sprinkler heads you can

install and the diameter of the

pipe. Get a one-gallon container

and time how long it takes to

fill with water from your home’s

outside faucet.

Next, draw a layout of where

you need the sprinkler heads,

making sure that their spray

diameter covers your lawn. Your

hardware store can show you

which sprinkler heads fit best,

and which fittings you’ll need.

The total GPM of your sprinklers

should not exceed 75 percent

of your home’s total GPM.

Then, to make your job easier,

rent a trencher and dig a trench

at least 9-in. deep, depending on

local codes, sloping slightly for

drainage. You’ll also have several

pipes to cut. A tubing cutter is

much easier to use and cuts

cleaner than a hacksaw. Buy

or rent one.

Expert advicePreparing soil for great gardens.

Renting a tiller can make your

project run smoother. It loosens

soil and prepares ground for new

plantings. A tiller also improves

drainage and allows plant roots to

reach deeper more easily.

So, what should you be looking

for in a tiller? Two of the main

things you should consider

are the size and condition of

the land you will be preparing.

Smaller tillers may have trouble

breaking up large chunks of soil.

However, if you need to simply

re-till previously prepared land, a

smaller electric tiller or cultivator

may be the best choice. On

the other hand, a large garden

tiller is probably your best bet

for larger areas or land that has

never been cleared.

Just remember that tilling can

be strenuous if you use a larger

model. In many cases, the lighter

the weight, the better.

Smaller tillers are also more

maneuverable—a plus when

cultivating around existing plant

beds. Many models also feature

adjustable cultivating depths

and tine widths, enhancing

maneuverability in tight spots.

A well-cleaned carpet not only

looks better—it lasts longer and

holds fewer built-up allergens that

family members.

To properly deep-clean a carpet

requires a combination of steps

equip yourself with the proper

chemicals for pretreatment,

stain treatment and odor

removal, as well as two or

three spray bottles and a

commercial vacuum.

Finally, rent a heavy-duty

Proper party planning lets you

guests, without worrying over

every detail. Here are some

questions you should ask yourself

ahead of time to make sure your

party is a success.

Do you have enough tables

and seating?

How about tablecloths,

napkins, and other linens?

If your party is happening

outside, do you need a

covered area or a tent?

Will you be able to store your

food safely?

Do you have games for the

kids so they can entertain

themselves?

For more elegant parties, do

you have wedding accents

and entryways?

Do you have enough cooking

space? Or do you need extra

large grills to accommodate

your larger gatherings?

Expert adviceParty elegance, indoors and out.

Whether you’re celebrating a

wedding or other event, add

sophistication and class to your

party by renting elegant party

essentials. From attractive

serving and dinnerware

accessories to furniture and

party tents.

Party tents come in an amazing

variety of shapes, sizes, and

materials, so you have several

options available to you. But you

should certainly make sure that

you get a size large enough to

hold all of your guests.

A 20' x 20' tent is big enough

for around 40 people. Or, for

larger events, a 40' x 50' tent

can comfortably accommodate

up to 150 people. Just keep

in mind that, if you also add a

dance floor, bar, or dining tables,

the tent will hold fewer people.

Speak with one of our rental

experts if you need help making

a decision.

Most tents are very easy to set

up, requiring few tools more than

a hammer to stake the tent to the

ground. Tent setup may also be

available. Ask one of our rental

experts for help.

Power through projects like a pro.Expert adviceBuilding a concrete patio.

This project takes a lot of time

and material, but with the right

equipment it can be easy to

add beauty and function to your

outdoor living space for years.

One of the first steps in building

a patio is the excavation.

Although this can be done with a

simple shovel, depending on the

volume of earth that needs to be

moved, renting a mini excavator

makes the job so much faster

and easier—especially, for patios

larger than just a few feet wide.

And when it comes time to

mix your concrete, this can be

done by hand in a bucket or

wheelbarrow. But renting a

concrete mixer lets you get the

pouring completed in a fraction of

the time.

Finally, once all the concrete is

poured, leveling it is much easier

and faster with a power trowel.

You’ll feel more confident in

taking on even large concrete

projects if you have the right

tools. Ask one of our rental

experts for advice.

Expert adviceHanging drywall.

Installing drywall takes time and

effort—and leaves behind a lot

of dust—but if you take on this

project the right way with the

right equipment, it can be a

one-person job.

When hanging drywall, stagger

pieces so a single line isn’t

obvious in the final product. Cut

so drywall ends on a stud center.

You’ll need a rasp or keyhole

saw to cut around light switches

and electrical boxes. And if you

need to cut circles for a can light

fixture there are techniques and

products for that, as well.

Holding up drywall pieces and

attaching them to wall studs or

ceiling joists usually takes two

people. But renting a drywall

jack to lift and hold heavy pieces

makes attachment fast and easy.

You can also purchase joint

compound premix, but if you

want to mix it yourself, simply buy a

five-gallon bucket and rent a power

mixer to make that job easier, too.

Your rental experts can

recommend products that can

work for your particular project.
