Business sites and managed properties
Commercial grounds maintenance means the outside of your site is looked after on a fixed schedule, without you having to chase anyone. Craig cuts grass, keeps hedges in shape, clears leaves and removes the waste for business premises and managed properties across Suffolk and Norfolk.
What we cover
The work is agreed up front as a visit schedule, so you know when Craig will be on site and what each visit covers.
You deal with Craig directly, not a call centre, which keeps questions and changes simple.
Business parks, offices, schools, care homes, rented properties and shared grounds all need the same basics done reliably: grass kept short, hedges off the paths, beds weeded and leaves cleared before they become slippery. Tenants, visitors and residents notice quickly when it slips.
Each site gets its own plan, because a care home garden and a car park verge need very different things.
Visits change through the year. A schedule usually includes some or all of the following.
For a facilities manager or landlord, the real value is not having to think about it. Craig is the single contact for the grounds, and visits can be logged with a short note of what was done, so you have something to show a client, a board or a tenant if they ask.
Access arrangements, keys, gate codes and times when the site is busy are agreed at the start and built into the schedule.
A fixed schedule suits both sides. You get a predictable service and a predictable bill, and the site is visited at the right points in the season rather than only when something has gone wrong. Extra work, such as cutting back a neglected boundary or clearing an overgrown corner, can be quoted separately and slotted into a normal visit.
Commercial sites rarely close for maintenance. Work is planned around opening hours, deliveries and people moving about, with noisy machinery kept away from busy times where possible and walkways kept clear while the team is on site.
In spring, grass starts growing and beds need clearing, so visits become more frequent. Through summer the focus is mowing, edging and keeping hedges clear of paths, signs and sight lines at entrances. Autumn brings leaf clearance, which matters for safety on paths and car parks, and a final hedge cut. Winter visits are lighter: tidying, checking boundaries and fitting in any cutting back or clearance work while growth has stopped.
On a commercial site the grounds are part of how a business is seen, and they affect safety too. Overgrown hedges can hide signs and block the view at junctions. Long grass and wet leaves on paths are slip risks. Branches over car parks can drop in wind. A regular schedule picks these up early, before they turn into complaints or problems.
The first step is a walk round the site with whoever manages it, to agree what is included, how often visits happen and anything that needs bringing back under control first. If the grounds have been neglected, a one-off catch-up visit is often done before regular maintenance begins, so the schedule starts from a clean base.

Yes. Craig is your single contact for the grounds and the schedule.
Yes. Timings, access and quieter periods are agreed at the start and built into the visit plan.
Yes. One-off work such as clearances or tree work can be quoted separately and fitted around regular visits.
Yes. Autumn leaf clearance from paths, car parks and drains is a regular part of commercial schedules, because wet leaves quickly become a slip risk for staff and visitors.
Prices and timing explained
The mowing and weeding look the same, but looking after a business site is a different job from caring for a family garden. Here is what changes and what to ask before you book either.
