OUTDOOR MAINTENANCE FOR EVERY SEASON
With winter presenting some of the harshest challenges for FM professionals, it’s also the season where OUTCO’s expertise shines brightest. Here, the company shares how
it can help make the lives of industry professionals easier. As facilities management evolves, the need for reliable, forward-thinking outdoor maintenance has never been greater. At OUTCO, we have spent over two decades redefining what it means to care for outdoor environments, delivering trusted, tech-enabled services across the UK. Our mission is simple: to make life easier for facilities and property managers by providing safe, compliant, and efficient outdoor maintenance – even in the most demanding conditions.
Winter Maintenance: Built on heritage, driven
by innovation With more than 20 years of winter maintenance heritage, OUTCO is the UK’s leading provider of fully managed winter services. From winter gritting and snow clearance to salt supply, de-icing products, and grit bins, we protect thousands of sites from operational disruption and health and safety risks during colder months.
Our operations are powered by our bespoke service platform, using site-specific professional weather forecasts to precisely trigger services. By monitoring road surface temperatures at a local level, we deliver proactive, temperature-activated gritting with a high level of accuracy. This ensures safety without waste – reducing costs and environmental impact for our clients.
Whether your site is a critical healthcare facility, retail park, logistics hub or business estate, we provide 24/7 support through our national operations centre, along with a fully interactive Service Portal with real-time status updates, and a comprehensive audit trail – including GPS tracking, service photos, and compliance documentation.
Flexible pricing models – fixed cost, cost-per-visit or hybrid – mean we tailor services to client budgets and needs. Combined with full liability protection, OUTCO offers unmatched reassurance during winter’s most unpredictable moments.
Grounds Maintenance: Year-round excellence Beyond winter, OUTCO is your year-round partner for planned and ad hoc grounds maintenance. Our services ensure outdoor spaces

remain safe, tidy and inviting – from grass cutting and hedge care to weed control, litter clearance, and seasonal planting.
For clients with specific sustainability goals, we also deliver biodiversity enhancement and vegetation management. These services support Biodiversity Net Gain, promote healthy ecosystems, and help organisations meet environmental and corporate social responsibility targets.
Our national presence is strengthened through regional teams, providing local knowledge and responsiveness across every job, regardless of scale or sector.
Reactive Works: Always ready to respond Unexpected issues demand immediate response. OUTCO’s reactive works division is built to handle everything from pothole repairs and drain maintenance to exterior building care and emergency civils works. With smart scheduling, dedicated account management and nationwide reach, our reactive services make sure your estate remains operational, compliant, and safe – even when the unexpected happens.
Technology that puts you in control OUTCO’s award-winning technology enables complete transparency and control. Through our client Service Portal, facility and property managers can view all their active sites, track progress of every service, download photographic service reports with breadcrumb GPS tracking, and raise support tickets instantly. It’s a single, mobile-accessible platform that centralises communications, saves admin time, and provides peace of mind.
Making FM lives easier At our core, we serve the people behind the properties – the facilities managers, estate directors, and procurement teams who are under pressure to do more with less. OUTCO is their trusted partner, helping them achieve safety, compliance, and operational continuity with ease.
