Leading the way in landscape maintenance

Landscape maintenance is an art and at Bidvest Top Turf we know that beautiful, considered landscaping can make an impactful and positive first impression, and that a well-maintained landscape can give a residential estate, retirement village, golf club, office park, recreational facility, even a school, a reputation of quality while adding value too.

 ‘The whole picture’ approach

At Bidvest Top Turf, we are far more than your average ‘mow, blow and go’ operation. We have a clear and informed understanding of the geographical idiosyncrasies and climate conditions of our country and approach every landscape project we encounter
holistically.

Take a residential estate, for example. Before development even begins, part of the application involves an environmental impact assessment to identify any areas that may require protection and/or special care. Once the build is complete, the developer hands over the estate’s unique ‘handbook’ to the Body Corporate, which should include guidelines for managing the common areas within the estate. We can take that handbook and, thanks to our in-house ecological management expertise and biodiversity analyses capabilities, help effectively maintain the site in its entirety. From recommendations on the placement, construction and maintenance of infrastructure, to the identification of suitable buffer zones around sensitive areas, storm water management, alien and invasive plant management, erosion management and waste management practices, including the recycling and recovery of waste and more, we work in partnership with our customers (in this case, the Body Corporate), as shared custodians of their landscaping blueprint. 

Water-wise ways 

No matter how visually impressive it is from the outset, a world-class landscape cannot continue to grow and thrive without a professionally installed irrigation system and making use of ‘smart’ irrigation practices offers plenty of benefits, including reduced water consumption while still maintaining optimal plant life.

Our in-house irrigation division, complete with dedicated expert team, caters for the design, installation and maintenance of irrigation systems and water features that make the most out of water as a valuable resource and help customers save on unnecessary consumption costs. 

We are fully committed to the responsible and intelligent use of water, offering innovative solutions such as time-saving through automation; strategic and controlled irrigation to help prevent plant loss and wastage; drip line systems; drainage and run-off infrastructure; water filtration options to assist in minimising municipal water consumption, as well as the monitoring of possible soil damage through moisture measurement and erosion management, amongst others – the overriding goal being, always, to reduce our impact on water stores through responsible management principles and technological innovation.

Everything under one roof 

For us, no landscape maintenance job is too big or small, thanks to our vast network of sister companies, our national footprint, substantial fleet and highly-trained and experienced grounds-keeping teams. 

Having a wide net of suppliers also means we can easily source high-quality plants and plant material suited to various applications within the landscaping environment –  for instance, the needs and requirements of a golf course differ from that of a residential play area.
