Fences

Putting a fence around the boundaries of your property clearly marks the barriers of your home and should serve in helping keep unwanted intruders out. Remember if you have a gate in your fence ensure this is secure, ideally with a dead-bolt style lock. We offer a range of security fences, guaranteed to provide high performance security.

Trim tall plants and shrubs

Whilst you may think they look pretty, tall plants and shrubs can provide burglars with additional cover when attempting to break into your property, particular at night time. We recommend that you keep all taller trees and shrubs trimmed down, especially if they are in front of doors or windows. We can provide hedge cutting services and even tree felling, if you wish to get rid of an obstructive tree altogether.

Garden paths

A long gravel or stone path leading up to the house can be a welcoming addition to your home’s landscape. And if you get it right it can add protection too - in the form of noise. It’s extremely difficult to come up a gravel path quietly, without the gravel crunching beneath your feet. Having a path of this type can alert you of any unwanted visitors as they make their way closer to your property.

Swimming Pools

We know British weather isn’t exactly the best for an outdoor pool but for those days we do see the sunshine, it is the perfect accessory for your home. Imagine all of your family playing by the pool side during a hot summer’s day. No matter how small your garden is, we will be able to create a swimming pool space for you. Most people tend to excavate the space and then use mosaic tiles for the base of their pool.

Driveway

You might want to create a driveway for your property. The best way for doing this is excavating. You need to lay a proper foundation if you want a driveway that performs well and lasts a long time. We are able to do this for you; our excavating methods will leave you with the perfect foundation to create a driveway that suits you. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find space to park your car so adding a driveway to your property makes a lot of sense.

If you need any more information about adding these features to your home then contact us on 07976 818 961. The dedicated staff at RKC Plant are on hand to deal with any enquires.

Benefit One: Improved Appearance

A well landscaped area outside can instantly lift and improve the appearance of your whole property, creating a sense of professionalism and showcasing the pride you take in your business to anyone who visits. The simple addition of a few plants alongside well maintained paving and turfed areas will look far better than overgrown grassy areas and un-kept flower beds to those walking up to the entrance of your property.

Benefit Two: Improved Staff Morale

A quality landscaped area will not just be beneficial to those visiting your property but also to those working within it. Staff morale is likely to be considerably higher when they are working in a well looked after location that they can be proud of. Developing a nice area outside the property will also encourage them to go and get some fresh air on their lunch breaks, enjoying the beauty that the landscaping has created.

Benefit Three: Environmental Advantages

By incorporating trees, shrubs and plants into your landscaping, you can have the confidence that your business is doing its bit for the environment. This will in turn portray your business in a favourable light to both your employees and potential clients who will see that you are more than willing to play an active role in protecting the environment we live in and encouraging wildlife to live in and around your property.

If the three benefits outlined above have made you decide to improve the landscaping outside your commercial property, get in touch with us here at RKC Plant today to discover the range of high quality services we can offer to get the end results you desire.

Utilise the Space

Whether you are blessed with extensive outdoor space or are slightly more restricted, making use of the space you have available is of the greatest importance. Plan in advance, making sure you draw out areas where you may be planning to install a decked area, the locations where flowerbeds will go and additional features such as fountains or sheds. This will give you a clear idea of what space you have left with these features in place, and as a result, will ensure that no area of your garden is going to waste.

Accessing the Garden

In a landscaped garden, there is a good chance that there will be many different areas to it, so you will need to carefully consider where your paths are going to go in order to provide easy access to such areas. Paved garden paths can lead people around the overall garden whilst stepping stones or gravel pathways can provide access to areas such as ponds, garden sheds or your compost heap.

Call in the Professionals

Although a number of tasks in the completion of a landscaped garden can be completed by you, there will be occasions whereby professional assistance is required. At RKC Plant, we can help in numerous areas of your project, from the digging required for new decking to be laid right through to new ponds and pathways.

Once you have followed these top tips, you should have the foundation in place to move forward with the creation of your perfect landscaped garden! For more information on the role that we can play in this, don’t hesitate to call our expert team today.

Here at RKC Plant, we to recognise how important a good level of security is, which is the reason why we have a collated short guide as to why sturdy and reliable security fencing around your commercial site is an absolute must. Read on to find out more;

Protect the Perimeter

The first benefit that comes from the installation of security fencing is the protection you will instantly set up around the perimeter of your property. Would-be criminals will often look for chinks in your security armoury yet with fencing around the whole of the premises, any weaknesses will be considerably more difficult to find.

Create a Deterrent

One of the best ways to prevent crime is to create a visual deterrent that instantly puts someone off embarking on some form of criminal activity. Visual deterrents don’t come much better than an intimidating security fence, offering resilient protection and no easy way of entering onto your private land.

These two points alone should make it clear to you why security fencing is a must if you don’t currently have any in place, so get in touch with us to discover exactly what we can do for you and your setting today.

Increased Use

A garden can be an extension of a property, so if you aren’t currently utilising your garden to its full potential, you are most certainly missing out. If your space is just an overgrown, grassy area, how about considering the introduction of some landscaping to make a few feature of the garden or alternatively install a decking area to make the most of any summer sun? By creating a personal garden design, you will most definitely benefit from increased use, not just in summer, but all year round as you will enjoy spending time there.

Increased Aesthetic Appeal

An unloved, overgrown mess of a garden will do nothing for the overall appearance of your home or commercial property, so making a positive change could do wonders for your property’s aesthetic appeal. The introduction of a feature, such as a pond or fountain, can give the garden a focal point that you can work around with a collection of plants and shrubbery. The end result will be a garden that you are proud to show off to all friends, family and neighbours!

For small rear garden projects through to larger scale commercial landscaping work, you will of course require the right equipment, and here at RKC Plant, we have it all. With the ability to transform an outdoor space, working together, we can revitalise your garden for 2013 to create a space that you will love spending time in and will effectively add something positive to the whole property!

Arrow Valley

We recently created a beautiful semi-permanent outdoor events stage at the Arrow Valley Centre in Redditch. Here at RKC Plant we are committed to providing our customers with an exceptional service and producing outstanding results; this project is a prime example of how dedicated we are to working in your interests and transforming your concept into a reality.

The ground at Arrow Valley was not level and therefore, unstable; our experienced team reduced the ground level to improve the structural integrity. It was thanks that our team’s skill and knowledge in conjunction with our modern, up to date equipment that were able to complete this project efficiently and to an exceptionally high standard.

Your Outdoor Stage

An outdoor events stage could make the perfect addition to your land and here at RKC Plant, we should be your first port of call. We use only the latest and best quality materials. For our project at Arrow Valley we used a material called Millboard as an alternative to decking which is commonly used for commercial music events as it is highly durable.

Our professional team work closely with you to assess your needs, specifications and requirements; no matter what you’re looking, we’re sure to deliver. We will guide you through every step of the way and answer any questions you may have with genuine and honest answers, not just a rehearsed spiel or a brush off like so many other companies.

Whether you’re responsible for a beautiful country park or have an expanse of private land to let for wedding marquees or events; an outdoor events stage could be the perfect addition.
