Sweeping and clearance Services

specialist sweeping & clearance MACHINERY

Road sweeping and clearance

Ensuring the roads and footpaths are free from moss, grass, and soil is a must. We always respect our environment and look to work in harmony with it, but encroachment on public paths and roads, or even garden driveways, can be both dangerous and unsightly. Slippery moss can cause falls, while a buildup of natural materials can block drainage, causing standing water on roads, and endangering drivers.

Maintenance of roads and footpaths

Here at RSM Maintenance, we have a wide variety of specialist machinery suitable for all types of sweeping and clearance jobs, from removing moss from a domestic driveway to sweeping the highway.

In years gone by, the removal of overgrown grass and soil from the sides of roads and footpaths was traditionally carried out using hand tools, but our skilled team at RSM has developed several machines that are ideal for the job. The efficiency of these methods ensures that the full width of a footpath is available for pedestrians. Thankfully this removes the need for the traditional manual method of clearance saving time, improving safety and doing a better job. 

 

 

Clearing blocked drains

Our specialist machinery is equally adept at clearing blocked drainage channels on our highways, which if left unchecked can cause a buildup of standing water on the road, causing a hazard for traffic. At RSM we have many years of experience in carrying out highway channel clearances with our expertise and methods ensuring work can be completed quickly and safely with the minimum of disruption to road users.

RSM operates to the highest standards and is certified (NHSS18, ISO9001) to safely carry out sweeping and clearance work both commercially and domestically.

Common Questions

 

How soon can work begin?

Again, much like cost, this would depend on the specifics of the job, but we will always work closely with you to ensure we meet your expectations.

What will my project cost?

The cost of the work we undertake depends on a number of factors including type of work, size, machinery needed and time taken to complete, but we would always consult with you and agree costs to suit your budgets prior to work commencing.

Do you only work on commercial contracts?

No, we work on both commercial and domestic contracts and undertake jobs of varying sizes. If you have any questions about a project we are happy to speak to you and advise the best course of action.

What services do you provide?

We provide a range of environmental management services. These are outlined on this site under the services tab, but we would also be delighted to discuss your needs and offer our expert advice.

What machinery do you use?

We utilise a range of equipment, both manual and machinery. We’re experts in our field and have invested heavily in developing our machinery to be the most efficient, safe and sustainable equipment for the work we undertake.

What is the best time of year to undertake the work?

Due to the range of services we provide, the best time to undertake certain works can vary. Grass and vegetation management is usually undertaken during the key growing period April-October, however our road, footpath and fencing work can be undertaken throughout the year.

Is the work undertaken safely?

Absolutely. RSM Maintenance carry numerous certifications and accreditations to reassure our clients of our safe and efficient work practices and high standards. All of our team is also fully trained in the safe operation of all equipment.

How long will it take to complete the work?

This is dependent on the type and size of work being undertaken, but timescales will always be communicated to you prior to commencement of work. 

Do I need to be on site while work is undertaken?

No, in fact in many cases we would recommend against it for safety reasons. We are fully insured and accredited to carry out all works safely and efficiently, and all plans for work will be signed off with you before we commence.

Can I choose what plants and materials are used on my project?

We provide a full consultancy service ahead of and during a project and always take our clients wishes into account. Where certain plants and materials are not suitable, we would advise you of such and recommend an alternative.
