Although we’ve now had some much-needed rain alongside the high temperatures, the grass remains quite dry. During some of our visits, you may notice that we haven’t cut the grass . This is an intentional decision to prevent placing additional stress on it, particularly when it’s already at an appropriate height.

Our teams will still be hard at work during these visits, focusing on trimming any outstanding shrubs and carrying out weeding as needed. We also encourage our colleagues to take extra care in the heat by using their break times wisely—resting in shaded areas and staying well-hydrated.

If you happen to see one of our team members on site during a particularly hot day, a glass of water would be very much appreciated!

Please note that our schedule is based on “week commencing” dates. While we always aim to stick to our planned visits, factors such as unexpected staff absence or adverse weather conditions may occasionally cause changes. Rest assured, all sites will still receive their full quota of visits.

Please note the timings of some of these tasks, such as hedge cutting and shrub pruning, can be delayed due to us following horticultural best practice with certain species of hedges and shrubs. Birds nesting can affect the timings of hedge cutting also.
