Our grounds contractors will visit the majority of our sites 26 times in a full year, some areas have 24 visits per year. This means they will carry out two visits per month, with approximately 15 days between each visit.
During the visits, we carry out the works below:
We mainly work on shrub beds during winter. During the summer, we only carry out containment pruning on shrubs where it’s required. This means flowering shrubs are allowed to reach their full potential.
All cleaning activities are carried out every two weeks as standard, at a minimum. There may be some variations to this where there is a static cleaner, or if we’ve agreed other arrangements with you for an additional service charge. Fortnightly cleaning generally consists of the following tasks:
If there is an additional cleaning issue not covered by the above, this will be reported, and then addressed as necessary.
Only external communal windows are included in this service. It includes:
These can’t always be accessed, and bad weather such as ice, snow or strong winds may also restrict our contractors’ access.
We clean all windows in Independent Living, Extra Care and Supported Living homes. We can include any conservatories or glass roof areas by arrangement.

These can’t always be accessed, and bad weather such as ice, snow or strong winds may also restrict our contractors’ access.
