We don’t outsource. All our work is carried out by experienced, well-trained staff who take pride in doing the job properly. Whether it’s a small one-off task or a long-term contract, you’ll always get professional service, clear communication and consistent results.

We use high-grade equipment and environmentally responsible methods wherever possible, including chemical-free cleaning options and specialist tools like GPS pitch markers and commercial sprayers.

Based in the South East, we work across Kent, Sussex, Surrey, and the surrounding areas — and can travel further afield for larger contracts. We’re trusted by local councils, schools, housing providers and private clients to deliver fast, reliable services that meet real-world needs.

Driving Operational Excellence

Derek West

As a seasoned Director of Commercial Grounds Maintenance with over 15 years of industry experience, I lead high-performing teams dedicated to maintaining exceptional outdoor environments across a wide range of commercial properties. My expertise spans from landscape management, turf care, seasonal planning, irrigation systems, and large-scale grounds operations.

I specialise in developing cost effective maintenance programs that align with client goals while ensuring safety, sustainability, and visual appeal. I’m adept at managing multiple portfolios, client relationships, and regulatory compliance, while consistently delivering high client satisfaction.

Known for strategic thinking and a ‘hands on’ leadership, I foster a culture of accountability, innovation, and continuous improvement. I work closely with property managers, facility directors, and executive management to ensure every site reflects excellence and reliability year-round. My mission is to drive operational excellence and long-term value through smart, sustainable grounds management solutions.
