SERVEST LANDSCAPING Do you know your Aptenia from your Carpobrotus … or your Dymondia from your Arctotis? No? Thought not, that’s why all but the green fingered among us prefer to rely on the experts. And if you’re the manager of a residential estate, the professional team from Servest Landscaping is the expert service you need. You’re keen to make the call, but you have existing staff to think of. Will Servest Landscaping be able to accommodate them? And if so, how? Yes, your existing team can be accommodated, but as with all things new there will be a period of adjustment where new ways of doing things will be communicated to them and additional training given. There will be new team colours and a great sense of pride as team members conform to their new recognisable dress codes. This is just the start of the professional approach that Servest Landscaping takes when working in residential communities. ‘We are committed to building meaningful relationships with clients, one where trust and honesty are valued above all,’ says Andre Ferreira, Servest’s sales and marketing director. What this means for you as the estate manager is that you can rest easy knowing that, to this professional team, your residents’ needs are a priority. Servest Landscaping ensures that management staff are equipped to lead teams, that they are well briefed with the objectives of both the company and the client, thereby ensuring effective delivery on all commitments – and that all equipment is well maintained and in working order. And talking about working order, Servest’s professionalism extends to each and every team member, who is skilled to execute the work to the highest level … and should there be anything they are unclear about, they know that they operate in a ‘safe space’ and can ask for whatever assistance they need to deliver the best outcome for the client. 42
