Specialist ground maintenance services from a local business
We are a local business with a reputation for delivering a safety-driven, high quality of work. This derives from our relationships with the largest ground’s maintenance companies in the UK. We strive to complete all work in a punctual manner while making sure the best arboriculture practices are adhered to. We pride ourselves on the standards of our training that our team, and our staff received continuously throughout the year. The work ethic, standards of work and compliance to H&S come from the top.
The Beginning:
Stewart Ledington started SGL Forestry over 25 years ago when he realised there was a gap in the market for a local business to help the largest firms deliver their workload. He has since grown SGL to have over a dozen staff including a management team who make sure the company is always approachable and contactable something that he knows isn’t always the case with others. People use SGL as we don’t let them down, we have a wealth of knowledge and the ability to deliver on large projects as well as domestic jobs that the company was founded on. SGL’s values are built on honesty, reliability, cost-effectiveness and putting our clients at the heart of everything we do.
Training:
Here at SGL we promote training as much as safety. This always allows the teams to be up to date with the newest techniques and best practises. Not only does this make the quality of the project better but again makes it the safest and more cost-effective to the client.
The team and our staff all have first aid qualifications, relevant Lantra, NPTC and in-house training on all machinery and power tools. This gives us a plethora of skills within each team and most challenges on-site can be overcome by any member of team.
The Management Team:
Stewart has 2 managers in place to ensure the company is as efficient and as well trained as the staff they look after. Stewart himself is the embodiment of this and holds all the qualifications the ground team have and more. He leads from the front and that filters down throughout the other management team and staff.
Among the other managers, they hold higher-level horticultural qualifications, historical garden certificates, practical in both Arb and GM tickets and have over 30 years experience in this sector. They are both continually being trained to help promote the SGL ethos that knowledge should never stop growing.
The team all have first aid qualifications, relevant Lantra, NPTC and in-house training on all machinery and power tools. This gives us a plethora of skill within each team and most challenges on-site can be overcome by any member of staff.
