Grounds Maintenance for Chelmsford premises

Commercial property in Chelmsford includes multi-let office buildings with shared plant, hospital, university and civic buildings and business parks on the city edge. Each has different hours, plant and statutory duties, so the scope is set after we have walked the site.

For Chelmsford sites, paths and car park edges are kept clear so sightlines and walking routes stay safe.

What grounds maintenance covers

Grounds maintenance is the scheduled care of the outside of commercial premises, such as lawns, hedges, shrub beds, hard landscaping and car parks, so the site looks well kept and paths stay safe to use.
