What is grounds maintenance?

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.

What is included in Greater London?

  • Leaf clearance in autumn
  • Hedge and shrub pruning
  • Grass cutting and edging through the season
  • Weed control on paths and car parks
  • Litter picking and bin emptying

Rules that apply in England

The Occupiers' Liability Act 1957 places a duty of care on occupiers towards visitors, so trip hazards, overgrown sightlines and slippery leaf fall on paths need managing. In England, fire safety in non-domestic premises falls under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, workplaces have had to separate recycling under Simpler Recycling since 31 March 2025, and the Building Safety Act 2022 adds duties for higher-risk residential buildings.
