Salting, Gritting & Snow Removal Dublin

Salting, Gritting and Snow Removal in Dublin

Grasshopper Services provide trusted snow removal services across Dublin. Snow and ice can cause massive disruption, and with the potential for financial loss and injuries, it is essential that these risks are managed and controlled. Grasshopper Services can help reduce the risk with our road gritting, salting and snow removal services.

We offer a comprehensive Winter Maintenance Package across Dublin, which includes Gritting and Salt Spreading. Along with traditional rock salt, we also use a liquid brine solution, which speeds up the salt’s action, leaving a lasting result. This solution has a reduced environmental impact, helping to protect both staff and nature.

We tailor a Winter Maintenance program for each site individually and utilize our fleet of 4x4s, gritters, tractors, and snowplows—all ready to be deployed at a moment’s notice. We keep track of expenses and environmental impact, but most importantly, we ensure that we deliver the performance we agreed upon.

We work based on Met Éireann and Realweather UK reports, which are sent to us each morning during our period of coverage for your area. Each of our gritters is fitted with GPS trackers that provide a report each night detailing the areas covered, the amount of salt used, and the time of application.

Rates for snow removal callouts include salt/grit, labour, and machinery for a single application per night. Should repeat applications be required due to refreezing or poor weather conditions, an additional cost will apply.

Please note that Grasshopper Services is fully insured.

Would highly recommend Grasshopper. They were out with us today trimming hedges and filling in a gap where a part of an old hedge had died. They did a super job and the hedge looks great again. They were out with us twice previously pruning a pear tree. We have always found them to be extremely reliable, always come when they say. Also they really know their stuff about plants and trees, have very pleasant staff and the prices are reasonable. Will definitely use again!

Grasshopper deliver a very reliable, consistent and competitively priced service to our development of over 100 houses with landscaped communal grounds. Weekly maintenance of front gardens and common areas is delivered by a friendly team. Always responsive to requests. We have also used Grasshoppers tree surgery services and found that to be very professional and efficient.

Damian transformed my garden in a morning form a bit of a mess into a much more manageable space. I'm delighted with future potential of the garden and look forward to working with Grasshopper services again. Worth mentioning impressive horticultural knowledge and a considered approach to pruning/removing plants. Thank you!

We live part of the time in Dublin and needed someone to look after our raised flower beds when we are away. We hired Grasshopper Services and have been very pleased with their work. Damian is the landscape specialist who works on our property. We are ever amazed at his knowledge of plants and their needs. He does an amazing job trimming and pruning and preparing the gardens for the winter. He also does an excellent job keeping the weeds at bay. We have a walled garden with no back entrance so Damian has to carry the waste through our Victorian rowhouse. He is very conscientious and careful when traversing our home. He is always on time. I would wholeheartedly recommend Grasshopper Services and especially Damian to look after a garden.

So pleased with the work carried out in my overgrown garden by Grasshopper Garden Services. Trees and shrubs were cut back with both care an aesthetic awareness to leave a beautiful and manageable area. The team were very professional and a pleasure to deal with, from the initial enquiry right through to the hard work carried out by Noel and Jason on the day.
