Open Space Maintenance

Our bespoke, year-round rolling open space maintenance programmes are designed to enhance your local landscape and increase the amenities value. We always apply best horticultural and managerial practices. Find out more about our open space features below:

Grass

Greenbelt’s grass is at the heart of our open spaces, providing areas for relaxation and play, or rich habitat for pollinators and other animals.

Hedges

Popular with birds, insects and small mammals alike, our hedges act as an abundant habitat for many animals, and a naturalistic divider.

Infrastructure

In addition to open spaces, we can manage a range of infrastructure on your development, including paths, signs, walls, gates and fencing.

Trees & Woodlands

From standalone amenity specimens to young, establishing and mature woodlands, trees attract a range of wildlife and promote calm.

SUDS

Designed to reduce the risk of flooding without blighting the landscape, our
Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems are managed to protect your home.

Litter & Bins

Removing litter and emptying bins regularly ensures you, and the local wildlife, are able to enjoy the open space areas all year round.

Shrubs

Shrub beds bring a splash of colour, with fragrant herbaceous displays that frame other areas or serve as floral centrepieces.

Play Areas

Our play areas are regularly monitored and managed in line with BS EN standards, ensuring a safe space for children and their guardians.

Open Space Management

On commencing our services, a member of our Community Liaison team will meet with homeowners, in their local area, to explain Greenbelt’s role and services in-depth. They will also provide an early stage dedicated point of contact for the homeowners and any residents’ groups.

We provide an in-depth Written Statement of Services detailing our commitment to homeowners and explaining how we will manage each feature, area and habitat on their development.

Our Operational Managers regularly inspect every development to ensure the highest quality of service is being provided and our dedicated Customer support teams are able to assist homeowners with all types of enquiries.
