We maintain the grass, planted areas, shrubs, hedges and trees on land that we own. We also cut some grass verges, in urban areas, on behalf of Suffolk County Council.

Please note that we are not responsible for the maintenance of rural highway verges. These are maintained by Suffolk Highways

We review our grounds maintenance service and schedules regularly, to make sure are continuing to provide a high quality, cost-effective service.

Which services do we provide?

  • Pruning and caring for trees, to keep them healthy and in safe condition
  • Maintenance of planted areas and hedges
  • Maintenance of play areas and open spaces (this includes collecting litter, and emptying litter bins
