It is always recommended to consult with professional strimming and grounds maintenance experts, like those at OUTCO, to ensure the appropriate techniques and schedules are followed to maximize the health and beauty of your outdoor environment. Some of the typical strimming tasks and grounds maintenance activities that OUTCO performs for clients for each season of the year include:
Spring: As nature awakens, spring is the perfect time to rejuvenate your outdoor spaces. We start by conducting a thorough strimming session, focusing on lawn edges, pathways, and around flowerbeds. We would trim hedges to promote healthy growth and shape and remove any dead or overgrown branches from trees. Part of the regular task would also be to clear away fallen leaves, debris, and winter remnants to prepare the grounds for a vibrant season.
Summer: During the summer months, it’s crucial to maintain a well-manicured appearance. We regularly strim and edge lawns to maintain their neat and tidy look, but also paying attention to areas that tend to grow faster, such as around trees and along fences. We keep hedges trimmed to their desired shape and height, ensuring they don’t obstruct walkways or windows. In summer it is important to apply appropriate irrigation to keep the grass lush and vibrant, and mulch flowerbeds to retain moisture and suppress weed growth.
Autum: As leaves start to fall, autumn strimming focuses on managing the seasonal debris. Our operatives continuously clear fallen leaves from the grounds, both for safety reasons and to maintain a clean appearance. We continue to strim and edge lawns to keep them tidy, and trim hedges before the dormant period begins. It’s also an ideal time for aerating and overseeding the lawn to promote healthy growth for the following year.
Winter: While the growth may slow down during winter, grounds maintenance is still necessary to preserve the landscape. We would strim the lawn one final time, focusing on keeping it short and tidy, and regularly remove any fallen branches or debris caused by winter storms. Our winter teams take care to clear snow and ice from pathways and driveways to ensure safe access for pedestrians and vehicles, whilst conducting periodic inspections to identify and address any potential winter damage to trees or structures.
- Electric: Specify an electric service for quiet and environmentally friendly operation, perfect for residential settings and noise-sensitive areas.
- Petrol: Our petrol service provides the power and versatility required for larger commercial or industrial spaces, ensuring efficient and effective results.
- Cordless: For freedom of movement using our cordless service in quieter areas where residents might be present. Say goodbye to tangled wires and the noise of petrol strimmers and let your residents enjoy unrestricted access to every corner of their outdoor space whilst we perform maintenance services quietly in the background.
- Backpacks: For larger areas, our backpack service offers convenience and manoeuvrability. Our professionals will effortlessly tackle large areas on your grounds, delivering exceptional results.
- Handheld Strimming: When precision is paramount, our handheld strimming service is the ideal choice. Our experts will meticulously trim hard-to-reach areas, providing immaculate details that enhance the overall appearance of your outdoor space.
