Winter Maintenance Services.

A winter maintenance contract with North East Gritters ensures your property remains safe and functional during the colder months. It includes responsive gritting, GPS-tracked vehicles, and an online portal with all your data. We keep your grounds gritted, with snow clearance available upon request.

Gritting is crucial for ensuring safety and accessibility in icy and snowy conditions. It helps to prevent accidents, maintain access to properties, and allow daily activities to continue smoothly during winter weather.

We grit in the evening as it is typically more convenient for our clients. Evening gritting, based on the weather forecast, ensures that the ground is prepared for staff arrival the next day.

Our services cover the North East of England, areas such as Tyne & Wear, Teesside, County Durham and North Yorkshire.

If you need our services in a different area, please contact us. We will explore the possibility of accommodating your request or provide alternative solutions.

North East Gritters use weather forecasts and real-time monitoring to determine the best timing for gritting operations. We receive a daily 24-hour forecast from our weather provider, which helps us decide which sites require service for that night. Sites are activated for gritting when the Road Surface Temperature (RST) is forecasted to be 0°C or below.

North East Gritters will collaborate with you to create and agree on a gritting plan. Using our professional mapping software, we will identify all areas that require service, including access roads and pathways.

Yes, North East Gritters provides comprehensive insurance coverage. While no company can completely remove liability from site owners, we can offer substantial protection. North East Gritters ensures all necessary insurances and fully auditable processes and procedures are in place to safeguard against liability.
