With around 54 in-house Karbon operatives, and five external contractors, our Grounds Maintenance service maintains the outdoor areas around your homes.
It’s a big operation – there’s over 50 geographical areas to maintain, along with the grounds around our schemes.
The Grounds Maintenance Team carry out a variety of jobs to keep the areas around your homes looking neat and tidy, and the service charge you pay monthly goes towards making this happen.
Our Grounds Maintenance service includes:
- Grass cutting
- Hedge and shrub bed maintenance in communal areas
- General upkeep including the removal of litter, leaves and debris
- Minor tree works
- Gritting our sheltered schemes
In-house teams also carry out works in empty home’s gardens, so you have a clear garden ready for when you move into your new home.
They also work with our housing teams to clear untidy gardens. Our grass cutting season runs from March until October (weather permitting!). We provide a range of cuts, at various frequencies, to make sure our outdoor spaces remain consistently kept throughout the season.
We’re committed to reducing our environmental impact too and improving biodiversity. This includes stopping the use of Glyphosate-based pesticides and actively trying to reduce our use of pesticides overall. We’ve also started the transition from petrol-operated tools to battery ones. Moving forward, we’re working to improve habitats and tree planting.
