Maintaining a residential block in Richmond is a job that entails a lot of small yet significant tasks. Our crew takes care of these tasks, so that you can concentrate on other essentials, as well as the maintenance of common outside spaces, keeping corridors and waste areas clean. We offer a fair and open-minded service of block gardening, community cleaning, landscape enhancements, regular maintenance and garbage disposal.
Each property is unique, and as such, we customise to suit. It can be one session to trim an overgrown backyard or a regular cleaning schedule once a week - either way, we do it right. Our prices remain affordable because we operate a lean operation, and we transfer the savings to you. When this is the first time that you are trying us, it has zero financial risk because you only pay when you are completely satisfied with the results.

View Details →Maintaining nice greenery surrounding a residential block requires frequent maintenance. The grass is growing in Richmond in a gentle climate, hedges need to be clipped often, and weeds will grow wherever they please. All this is done by our gardening service. We mow grass, trim bushes, trim hedges, pull out weeds that grow in the grass, and pick up any litter that has been left in the grass. We also address the ignored areas which have grown over. We aim at ensuring the garden area is clean, safe and welcoming to all the people residing in the region.
We are aware that various blocks perform differently. Other people require a gardener once every two weeks, or once a month. We also fit in your time and budget. We come with our own equipment when we visit a session, and take all the waste from the plants. Nothing to attend to. In the case of blocks where the gardens have never been regularly maintained, we will provide one thorough cleaning of the whole outdoor space- cutting down bushes, raking up the fallen leaves, and trimming the lawn. Then, we can make it a regular schedule as long as it fits you.
Shared patios, small courtyards or grass strips between parking spaces are common features of the Richmond blocks. We do not deal with all zones in one. We avoid using a one-size-fits-all method. As an illustration, we change mowing heights according to the type of grass, and we use weed control items that are safe to children and pets. We also provide free recommendations on the type of plants that will grow in the soil in Richmond and the type of plants that will need less watering. This assists you in cutting down on water bills in the long run.
A clean entrance, stairs, and a corridor contribute greatly to the perception of the home of the residents. We clean blocks in Richmond, including all common inside spaces. We vacuum the carpets, sweep the hard floors, polish the glass panels, wipe down the surfaces and remove cobwebs on the ceilings. We also get rid of junk mail and flyers that get lost in the mail slots. Waste storage areas are frequently not the prettiest aspect of a block. We empty, dust them and clean them up to make them no longer smell or look good.
We do not limit ourselves to readily accessible areas. We go high - with light fixtures and ceilings on extendable tools - and we go low - taking the scuff marks off walls and baseboards. In the case of blocks that have carpeted stairs, we carry our own vacuum, which we plug into an electrical point that is close to the stairs (we will seek permission in advance). We clean your block's common lounge or laundry room, too, should your block have one. You inform us what to attend to, and we do it.
Since every block is special, we give out a checklist at the end of every visit specifying what we did. We also take pictures of the completed work. This will enable you to view what has actually been cleaned and provide feedback accordingly. In case you detect any problem which is not up to your expectations within two days, we will come and rectify it at no additional cost. This is what we promise to do.
There are times when a block needs more than regular gardening - it needs to be rejuvenated. This is what our landscaping service does best. We build new fences, build brick boundaries around lawns, place bike lock-up spaces, and design relaxation areas with seating and plants. We also trim off the ageing and decaying bushes, and we replace them with low-care shrubs that are green throughout the year. In areas where vehicles are commonly parked on grass, we erect short barriers or posts to protect the grass.
Site walkthrough is the commencement of every landscaping job. We explore your room, hear out your thoughts, and create a rudimentary sketch. It is not binding; you may quit at any point. We organise work and report every day, in case you agree. Before, during and after images are always taken so that you can follow progress. We leave the site clean, too, and we take away all the rubbish. In Richmond, this has seen the transformation of many blocks into friendly places that are in use by people. We can do with yours.
Our team is small and so we keep our prices low as opposed to other large landscaping firms. We do not introduce superfluous extras. You only pay for what we use and the time we actually work. In case you are uncertain about something - e.g. there is a brick island or flower bed - we can advise you on what has worked well in the climate of Richmond and with your budget.
Minor problems may become big headaches when not addressed. A handrail that is not tight, a flickering light in the staircases, a door that does not shut well, and so on, are the things that annoy the residents and can even be dangerous. These simple issues are repaired by our basic maintenance service before they develop. We replace bulbs, fix door hinges, sew small holes in the walls, and paint over peeling. We also mend dripping taps in communal toilets and broken pavement slabs around the entrance.
Our architects are not constructors, but we have an idea what sort of maintenance that kind of building needs every week or month. In case of bigger work, such as roof repairs or big plumbing, we will notify you and help find someone. However, in our day-to-day activities, we are your team. We also have a record of every small repair that we do, which we mail you with pictures. This provides you with an account of what has been repaired and assists you in budgeting your maintenance better.
Older building blocks in Richmond tend to require a higher rate of maintenance. We are at home working on properties of any period. We understand how to find matching paint colours, find new parts to replace old door handles, and operate safely with older electrical systems. You will not have to concern yourself with locating several tradesmen - we will do the little things so you do not have to.
The most common issue we are experiencing on Richmond blocks is that waste accumulates around the bin storage facility. One or two mattresses or some bags of old clothes beside the bins can easily draw more rubbish. Before long you have a dump which is not authorised. We empty that trash quickly - normally in three days of you giving us the green light. We clean up all that, mop the area and disinfect the floor. When the bins of the block are already full, we use our vehicle to remove the garbage.
We do not merely steal the rubbish; we can also counsel you on how to ensure that it does not happen again. In some cases, all it takes is a mere sign or a lock on the bin store and the problem is resolved. We can help with that as well. To maintain constant cleanliness, we can have a monthly visit to clean the bin area. You will be astonished by the fact that the entire block will be much more beautiful if the waste storage is clean.
We believe in sharing knowledge. In coming to your block in Richmond to get a quote, we also offer you free tips on how to maintain your garden and common areas in good condition between our visits. We can inform you of the easiest plants to manage, how often to mow the lawn to achieve the best results and what sort of cleaning solutions are best applied to your particular surfaces. You need not pay us to give you this advice, it is our business.
We would be happy to discuss with you, should you be a resident association or a property manager seeking a long-term partner for your block. Our company is not the biggest, but we are reliable, simple, and simple to do business with. We do not cut corners when we keep our overheads low, and that is why we offer low rates. The difference in quality of our work will be noticed.
