Preventative & reactive car park gritting for safe, ice-free access all winter.
Winter Maintenance (NW) provides reliable preventative and reactive car park gritting services for the public and private sectors across the North West. With years of experience treating retail, commercial, industrial and multi-storey car parks, we ensure safe access for vehicles and pedestrians throughout the winter months.
Car park surfaces, especially top decks, freeze differently to roads and footpaths. Due to exposure and airflow around raised structures, ice can form unexpectedly — often before temperatures drop below freezing. Our flexible and responsive approach allows us to deliver fast, effective gritting whenever required, including emergency call-outs.
Our gritting teams are equipped and ready to deploy at very short notice, frequently able to arrive on site within an hour of receiving a request. This responsiveness helps protect your staff, customers and property from slip hazards and weather-related disruption.
Every site is different, which is why each client receives a fully tailored winter maintenance plan based on layout, risk level, usage patterns and operational requirements.
We are committed to delivering cost-effective, flexible and dependable car park gritting services that reduce risk, prevent accidents and ensure safe access for employees, customers, visitors and the general public.
It is not widely understood that top deck car parks can freeze even when air temperatures remain as high as 3°C. Because these surfaces are exposed on all sides, cold airflow can circulate beneath and around the structure, causing the ground temperature to drop significantly lower than the surrounding environment.
This makes car park gritting a critical part of winter safety. Employees, shoppers, delivery drivers and visitors rely on consistent and safe access — and freezing conditions on elevated decks can catch businesses off guard.
