What to Expect from Grounds Maintenance Visits

You would expect a professional team of grounds maintenance staff to visit your site on a regular basis.

A Site Walk-Round First

When your grounds maintenance in Gloucester provider turns up for a visit to your commercial site to do the work you have commissioned they should start with a site walk-round to note any problems that may affect the work to be done such as hazards that could affect their safe passage around the site.

Grass Cutting and Edging

For lawns, the grounds maintenance Gloucester team use either rotary mowers or cylinder mowers depending on the surface. To complete the edges of paths and borders the grounds maintenance Gloucester team cut them separately using a suitable edging machine. A well manicured lawn should look even, smooth and approximately the same height throughout.

Hedge and Shrub Trimming

Hedges are cut to the agreed shape and height. All hedge clippings are cleared from the ground within the same visit to prevent slip hazards and untidiness. All arisings are bagged up and removed from site unless otherwise agreed with the client.

Hard Surfaces and Litter

Paths, car parks and entrances will be swept and litter picked whilst the team are on site and this is classed as one of the core tasks of a grounds maintenance visit. The leaf clearance is seasonal and should be programmed in for the autumn and winter visits.

A Handover Check

They should also carry out a second site walk-down and provide you with a formal handover note outlining what work was carried out, any issues found during the visit and any photographs.
