Winter Maintenance

Whether you have a small shop or a huge university, getting your grounds ready for winter is essential. You have the safety of staff, customers, or students to think about, so it’s never too early to start considering winter safety measures.

Here at Weedfree we understand the importance of your business needing to continue its operation during ice and snow and also the health and safety issues your business as to adhere to. Our winter maintenance services give you piece of mind during the winter season.

Our services can be a one off service or can form part of your grounds maintenance package.

Businesses need to run in every weather, we offer a 24/7 service throughout winter. Weedfree Landscapes are on hand in emergencies with specialist vehicles and equipment to help out during busy periods or times of heavy snowfall.

Legislation

For businesses and other organisations, the wintry weather brings with it additional hazards to premises that must be managed. Slips and trips are the most common cause of winter work hazards.

Health and safety regulations state that arrangements must be in place to minimise dangers arising from snow and ice, which include slips, trips and falls. We’ll help by keeping your paths gritted and shovelling and clearing snow and ice to keep your walkways safe and your business running, even in the chilliest of weather.

All employers and businesses need to make sure that frequently used access paths which get covered with frost or snow are cleared, gritted or salted to help prevent people slipping.
