Our story

Grounds care with a difference. For over seventeen years.

Ashwood Grounds Maintenance is a family-run firm based in Cramlington, Northumberland. We've spent over seventeen years looking after the grounds of schools, estates and businesses across the North East — and a 96% client retention record tells you most of them are still with us.

By the numbers

Seventeen-plus years of turning up, doing the work, and being asked back.

Most of our clients have been with us for years rather than months — some schools and sites since the very beginning.

Who we work for

Trusted across the public and private sector.

Schools & education

Primary and secondary schools and academies — DBS-checked crews and term-time scheduling.

Housing & estates

Housing associations and managed estates — consolidated multi-site contracts and one invoice.

Commercial & business parks

Offices, business parks and facilities — tidy grounds, gritted car parks, no fuss.

Public sector & councils

Council and public-sector grounds with the compliance paperwork kept current.

How we work

The Ashwood way, in four lines.

01

Turn up.

Show up when we said we would. If we can't, you hear about it the day before, not the day after.

02

Do the work.

Properly. Once. We'd rather take an extra hour on the day than be called back to redo it.

03

Tell the truth.

If we can't do it Friday, we say so. If a tree shouldn't come down, we say so. If the price has changed, we say so before we start.

04

Look after the kit, the site, and each other.

Tidy yard, tidy site, tidy invoicing. A boring philosophy, but it's why people keep us around.

Where we work

Everywhere within about 30 miles of Cramlington.

We're based in Cramlington and cover Newcastle, Northumberland, North Tyneside, Gateshead, Sunderland, South Tyneside and County Durham.
