Landscape Ground Prep Equipment | Pro Grade

Cap Rock Shovels are specifically engineered for breaking up dense materials like clay, coral, rock, and decomposed granite. Their 12-gauge heat-treated blades and low-lift design provide maximum penetration in near-vertical digging applications such as palm tree planting, making them the preferred choice for tough soil conditions.

Base preparation for pavers requires digging, grading, and compaction. Contractor Shovels or Trenching Shovels handle excavation, Aluminum Landscape Rakes level the base material, and Dirt Tamps compact sand and soil. Wolverine's Dirt Tamps are available in 8x8 and 10x10 inch heads, purpose-built for paver brick base compaction.

Yes. All Wolverine Tools carry a lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects. This applies across the entire ground prep lineup — from spades and shovels to rakes, tamps, and forks. Defective tools are repaired or replaced by the manufacturer, eliminating unexpected replacement costs for professional crews.

Trenching shovels feature narrow blades (3–6 inches wide) designed specifically for cutting precise, clean trenches for drainage lines, irrigation pipes, or wire runs. Contractor shovels have wider blades (#2 Round or Square Point) for general excavation, material moving, and site work. Both use 14-gauge tempered or chromoly steel blades with forward-turned steps.

Wolverine offers tools across multiple user levels. The CREW Line, Contractor Shovels, and Aluminum Landscape Rakes are engineered for professional and heavy-duty contractor use. The W-Series Shovels and Multi-Purpose Rakes are designed for homeowners and light-duty applications, offering reliable performance at an economical price point through retail and garden center channels.

Wolverine tools are available with North American Ash hardwood, pultruded fiberglass with a solid reinforcing core, aircraft-quality steel tubing, or hickory hardwood handles — depending on the product line. All handles feature powder-coated or comfort-grip finishes to prevent hand blackening and improve ergonomics during extended professional use.
