Peckham’s mix of Victorian terraces, Georgian houses and converted warehouses often sits alongside compact school sites with tight access and shared boundaries. In the school grounds maintenance Peckham area, we’re used to narrow service routes, gated entrances and safeguarding requirements. We plan works to suit drop-off times and after-school clubs, and we keep noise and mess controlled. Seasonal planting and tree care are scheduled to match term dates and site use.
We start with a site walkover, risk-aware method statement and a clear maintenance schedule. Visits are logged, issues are flagged early, and we prioritise hazards such as trip edges, overgrown sightlines and slippery leaf fall. For school grounds maintenance in London Borough of Southwark, we coordinate around waste storage, access permits and caretaker preferences. Homeowners and school managers trust us for consistent standards, clear communication and a 10-year warranty on qualifying installed works.
Peckham sites often face heavy footfall, compact lawns and shaded corners from mature street trees, which can encourage moss and weeds. We adapt mowing heights, feeding and aeration to suit wear levels and drainage. Access can be tight around Nunhead and Camberwell routes, so we plan vehicle size, parking and delivery times in advance. We also work with Southwark expectations on green waste handling and considerate working hours.

Costs vary with site size, visit frequency and what’s included (lawn care, hedge trimming, litter collection, playground checks, sports pitch care and seasonal planting). As a guide, small sites may start around £250–£500 per month, while larger multi-area grounds are often £700–£1,800+ per month. One-off tidy-ups can range from £350–£1,500+. We’ll survey first and provide a tailored schedule and budget options.
A routine visit can take 1–3 hours for smaller grounds, and 4–8 hours for larger sites with multiple zones and pitches. One-off clearance or seasonal works (leaf clearance, hedge reductions, re-turfing, planting) may take 1–3 days depending on access and waste volumes. Timings are influenced by safeguarding sign-in, parking, weather, and whether work must be completed outside pupil break times.
Most routine maintenance—mowing, hedge trimming, weed control, litter collection, and planting—doesn’t require planning permission. However, tree work can be restricted by Tree Preservation Orders or conservation area rules, and some fencing, surfacing or drainage changes may need approval. We’ll check constraints before starting, advise on what’s permitted, and help you follow the correct process so the site stays compliant and audit-ready.
We stand by our workmanship and provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying installed works (for example, new hard landscaping elements or constructed features agreed in writing). The warranty covers defects arising from our installation, subject to normal use and appropriate maintenance. Routine grounds maintenance tasks are also quality-checked, with visit reports available on request. If something isn’t right, we return promptly to put it right.
We tailor options to safety, durability and budget. Popular choices include hard-wearing turf and overseeding mixes for sports areas, low-maintenance seasonal planting schemes, bark or rubber mulch for beds, and robust edging to reduce strimming damage. For playground maintenance, we can advise on surfacing repairs and safer boundary planting. We’ll recommend choices based on footfall, shade, drainage and the look you want to keep year-round.
