Maintenance
Our maintenance programme includes:
- grass cutting
- litter collection
- preparation from interments
- ground re-instatement
- shrub beds
- flower beds
- tree work
- weed control
- removal and disposal of floral tributes and wreaths
Grass is cut on a fortnightly basis from April to September inclusive, weather permitting.
Floral tributes are collected for disposal on a weekly basis, after 14 days from the burial date, and litter bins emptied regularly. Holly wreaths will be left in place until mid-February then removed as resources allow.
We plant out and maintain soil borders and flower/shrub beds as required, including weeding, feeding and pruning.
