Grounds maintenance keeps the green areas right. External environmental services keep everything else right: the hard surfaces, the bin stores, the car park and the parts of a site that get grubby quickly and are noticed immediately when they do.
For most clients this sits alongside their internal cleaning contract, delivered by the same account team, so the whole property is covered by one specification and one point of contact.
What it covers
- Pressure washing to paving, forecourts and entrances
- Car park sweeping and cleaning
- Bin store cleaning, sanitising and management
- Graffiti and chewing gum removal
- External glass, cladding and signage cleaning
- Litter picking and fly-tipping clearance
- Drain, gully and channel clearance
Done responsibly
External cleaning uses water and chemicals, and both are worth controlling. We work to ISO 14001, manage run-off and discharge properly, and use the lowest effective chemical intervention rather than the fastest. Waste is removed under our waste carrier licence with the documentation to match.
Frequencies are set to how the site is actually used. A busy retail entrance and a quiet rear service yard do not need the same attention, and there is no sense paying as though they do.
