Schools around SM6 need grounds that look professional and stay safe in all seasons. We support sites near Wallington station and across Beddington with regular, scheduled upkeep that reduces hazards and improves presentation. Our team handles everything from lawn care and hedge trimming to litter collection and playground maintenance. You get consistent standards, not one-off tidy-ups.
Wallington’s mix of 1930s semis, Victorian terraces and modern developments means access and boundaries vary from site to site. We’re used to tight service lanes, shared parking areas and narrow side entrances common in South Beddington and Hackbridge. Whether you manage a compact primary playground or larger playing fields, we plan the work around safeguarding and school-day routines. The result is grounds that stay usable without disrupting drop-off and pick-up.
We begin with a site walkover, risk-led schedule and a clear list of priorities: weed control, tree care, sports pitch care and seasonal planting. Visits are logged, issues are flagged early, and we can align work with term dates and events at places such as Wallington Square. Our crews arrive on time, work cleanly, and leave paths, entrances and play zones safe. Many local clients choose us for straightforward communication and consistent results.
We understand the practicalities of working across the London Borough of Sutton, including parking constraints and timed access around school gates. Wallington sites often combine shaded corners, compact courtyards and open grass that dries at different rates, so we adjust mowing heights and weed control accordingly. Where boundaries back onto residential streets, we keep noise and debris tightly managed. This is school grounds maintenance wallington area planning that fits real-world conditions.

Costs vary by site size, visit frequency and the mix of tasks (lawn care, litter collection, hedge trimming, pitch work and tree care). As a guide, smaller sites may budget from £250–£600 per month for regular maintenance, while larger grounds with sports pitch care and seasonal planting can be £900–£2,500+ per month. One-off tidy-ups typically start around £350–£1,200 depending on waste and access.
Routine visits for a smaller school can take 2–4 hours, while larger sites or multi-activity grounds may need a full day or a two-person crew. Seasonal tasks such as hedge reductions, leaf clearance, pitch renovations or tree works can add extra time and may be scheduled during inset days or holidays. Timescales depend on access, safeguarding requirements, weather, and how quickly green waste can be removed.
Most day-to-day grounds work—mowing, weed control, hedge trimming, litter collection and routine playground maintenance—doesn’t require planning permission. However, tree works can be restricted by Tree Preservation Orders, and some sites may sit within areas with additional controls. We’ll help check constraints, advise on best practice, and work to safe standards. If permissions are needed, we can support the process before any major changes begin.
We stand behind our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying installation work we carry out (for example, hard landscaping elements related to grounds improvements). For ongoing maintenance, we guarantee visits are completed to the agreed specification, with any snags reported and put right promptly. If an issue is caused by extreme weather, vandalism or misuse, we’ll explain options and provide a practical remedial plan.
We tailor choices to durability, safeguarding and year-round impact. Popular options include hard-wearing sports turf mixes, low-allergen and pollinator-friendly seasonal planting, robust hedging for boundaries, and bark or rubber play surfacing where appropriate. For weed control, we can specify manual, mechanical or targeted treatments depending on site rules. We’ll recommend options that suit budgets, maintenance levels and how pupils use each space—ideal for school grounds maintenance in London Borough of Sutton.
