Why is grounds maintenance such a headache?

Grounds maintenance means being outside in all weather, fighting to maintain the pristine appearance of a professional business premises.

A simple sweep of the grounds has to be done regularly. Litter that has blown in from the roads or fall out of overflowing dustbins immediately ruins the aesthetic of beautiful, clean grounds. Controlling weeds can seem a constant battle if you’re in charge of ground maintenance for a large site – and it can seem to take up a disproportionate amount of the time spent on ground care. Planting bulbs for plants and flowers might sound like a doddle, but it’s easy to get wrong – and then requires constant watering to ensure that what was planted actually grows.

These are just a few of the basic jobs in grounds maintenance. In colder months, measures need to be taken against snow and ice; and in July and August, summer maintenance needs to be implemented. Grounds maintenance isn’t just a day-to-day job – the specifics change with each season!

As if all that wasn’t bad enough, overgrown grass alone can be really unsightly, and can create a bad impression for any client just on first glance.

Why Use A Professional Firm For Grounds Maintenance?

While you may think you can easily tackle jobs like ice gritting, snow sweeping, flower planting, hedge trimming, plant watering and weed control yourself, a professional commercial ground maintenance firm will have the specialist equipment, expertise and knowledge to deal with all aspects of grounds maintenance promptly and effectively. Most importantly, this will then free you up to focus on all the aspects of caring for a property which need to be taken care of.

What’s more, if you use a professional contractor, the typical problems relating to grounds maintenance are far less likely to recur.
