There’s no denying it, the colder months are well and truly upon us. Coats, hats and scarves are being brought out of retirement and shorts are tucked away until next year. But your wardrobe isn’t the only thing that requires a little early winter attention; gardens, outdoor spaces and grounds of all kinds often need a fair bit of preparation for the colder weather.
Whether you manage an estate, sports ground or woodland, ensuring that the premises are safe, healthy and ready for winter is a must. Of course, the best way to do this is by employing the services of a reliable grounds maintenance company.
Here at GMCB Ltd, we’ve put together a quick guide to the ways in which our services can help you step into winter knowing your grounds are well-kept and healthy.

First on our list is car park gritting. Cold nights and icy mornings can make surfaces incredibly dangerous for vehicles and pedestrians alike. For this reason, premises such as private car parks, estate entrances and driveways must be gritted to prevent skidding and accidents.
Employing the services of a gritting company is the surest way to keep your premises safe, no matter the weather. Here at GMCB Ltd, our professional team are ready for anything; whether you need scheduled gritting work or emergency contractors due to unforeseen weather conditions, we’ve got you covered.
Of course, ice isn’t the only danger during the winter months; as the temperature drops, preparing for snow is also a necessity. While it might look beautiful and encourage a little festive spirit, snow can be a real inconvenience when it comes to accessibility and safety. That’s why, in addition to car park and road gritting, we offer professional snow clearance services.
Our snow clearance services are not only reliable, efficient and reasonably priced, but they are also available for emergency call-outs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Finally, in any discussion of winter preparations, it is worth noting the importance of ensuring your premises or estate is safe for visitors and yourself through winter. In addition to gritting and snow clearance, having your trees assessed, trimmed and maintained before entering the winter period is always a good idea. Not only is it a sensible idea, but landowners also have a duty of care to ensure their trees are in a safe condition.
Our NPTC-qualified tree surgeons are able to identify any hazards, such as dying branches and diseases, carrying out the necessary work and making sure that they pose no danger and are healthy through the winter months.
No matter your landscaping and ground maintenance needs, you can rely on the team here at GMCB Ltd to provide an efficient and professional service.
From snow clearance and gritting to tree surgery, mowing and more, we have the experience and skills needed to keep your premises in top condition, all year round.
