Planned Grounds Maintenance for Newbury & West Berkshire
For commercial and managed properties, consistent grounds care is about more than appearance. Grass, hedges, planted areas, paths and boundaries all need timely attention to keep a site welcoming, usable and easier to manage. Sundog provides scheduled commercial grounds maintenance from our Newbury base for sites across West Berkshire.
Our core local area includes Newbury, Thatcham, Greenham, Speen, Donnington, Wash Common, Cold Ash, Hermitage, Chieveley, Kintbury and Hungerford. Maintenance programmes are built around the site rather than a generic gardening round, with visit frequencies agreed for the growing season and winter requirements. Where required, our wider services can also cover tree care, cleaning and hard-surface repairs through one contractor.
Comprehensive Site Solutions
Our maintenance packages are not one-size-fits-all. We tailor our schedule to the specific biological needs of your landscape and the operational needs of your business:
- Commercial Grass Cutting: From formal lawns to expansive verges, we use industry-leading mulch mowers to encourage healthy growth and maintain a professional finish.
- Hedge & Shrub Care: Precision trimming ensures your site remains tidy, while pruning maintains sightlines for CCTV and vehicle access, reducing security risks.
- Weed Control & Invasive Species: We manage hard-standing areas to prevent structural damage and slip hazards, alongside specialist treatment for Japanese Knotweed.
- Litter & Debris Clearance: Regular sweeps of car parks and walkways to maintain hygiene standards and pest control.
- Sports Ground Maintenance: Specialist care for schools and private clubs, including line marking and pitch renovation.
