Ground Maintenance Edmonton For Commercial And Residential Builds

By Eric Mitchell


Having a large garden or estate is a wonderful asset. As is having an attractive commercial premise with outdoor space. But, who is going to maintain your grounds and keep them looking good for visitors or even prospective clients. What you need is an expert in ground maintenance Edmonton residents are happy with. When you employ the services of the professionals for maintenance, all your worries will be over. In this article we will take a look at residential and commercial services for warm and cold weather.

With the change of the seasons, your ground maintenance requirements will change. If your lawn is covered in snow, it will not need mowing. So, let's rewind for a minute to residential warm weather services. In summer your grass does grow, so having it mowed regularly is a must. It is not just your grass that will grow though. Weeds will too. Your lawn should be fertilized, treated for weeds, and aerated in the summer months.

During the summer you should also think about hydro seeding and sod installation for your private grounds. You should also use the services of a water management system to monitor and cut back on the amount of water you use. In the warm month, your maintenance team should also take care of landscaping, pruning of shrubs and trees, and weeding and mulching.

In the cold services the services you require will change. There wont be much weeding necessary and plenty of water will be falling out of the sky. Your ground maintenance expert will however get to work with other tasks in and around your residential property. These can include snow removal and plowing, salting of walkways, and ice dam prevention. Roof raking is a must if there is thick snow, as is the cleaning of down pipes and gutters. Lastly, your groundsman may even help you with your holiday lighting and the delivery of your tree.

Now lets take a look at the services needed for commercial properties. Many are the same as for residential. The lawn needs to look its best. This will include creation, repair, and mole and pest removal. Water management systems need to be in place to ensure you are not wasting water. Your landscaping should be taken care of in the summer months, as well as your tree and shrub pruning. A design and installation service will also be available to you.

Winter at your commercial property can cause problems. To make sure everyone can still reach you, maintenance will be regularly needed. There are many hazards in winter that you find outside your property.

To ensure that your clients and customers can still reach you, snow relocation and removal will be necessary. Frequent plowing of parking lots and driveways is also essential. Salting of your walkways and sidewalks is extremely important. A slip or fall and a client could take you to court if it is deemed that you were at fault. Roof raking is again a must, this time also because you don't want a slide of snow to shift and fall on the head of your client.

Last but not least, ensure your groundsman helps you get into the festive season. He can help you with the deliver of your Christmas tree to your office or other premise, and help ensure that you have the best festive light display in town.
