Going the Extra Mile

The exceptional is, for us, quite normal. Like the time, on a weekend, when we had to retrieve a shoe thrown into a locked toilet, because the family, from out of town, were about to head home.

We currently undertake ground maintenance work on two hospice sites in Whanganui. We subsidise the work heavily to support the amazing work that Hospice do in our community.

We treat your assets like our own. We’ll do anything, within reason (!), to make a good impression and make someone’s day.

Our track record spans 14 years in business carrying out similar gardening and grounds maintenance contracts and one-off projects for a range of private and public organisations throughout the North Island. The size and scope of work has ranged from small residential jobs to long-term multi-site contracts, demonstrating our ability to plan, resource and carry out contract work to meet client expectations.

Environmental Management Systems

Maintaining environmental responsibility is important to us. We receive regular updates from the Environmental Protection Authority and WorkSafe to ensure we keep up to date with all environmental legislative changes. We work with Regional Councils to keep staff informed regarding noxious weeds/diseases impacting specific to regions, i.e. Horse Tail, Myrtle Rust.

We train our staff to ensure that we are compliant, updating our Procedures, Hazard Register and Health and Safety Manuals as required. Our staff are Growsafe/Handler Certified.

We have made a conscious decision as a company to use the least toxic chemicals (insecticides/weed control) available to achieve acceptable outcomes.

As a company we endeavour to be careful with resources, and encourage our staff to recycle/re-use, and avoid waste wherever possible.
