The Challenge: Preserving Grounds During Renovation

A well-known heritage site in the UK was set to undergo a 30-week renovation project. With large areas of the grounds cordoned off for construction, the team faced a pressing challenge: how to safely reroute pedestrian traffic across a well-maintained lawn without causing damage.

Given the volume of daily visitors and the importance of maintaining the immaculate condition of the grounds, a solution was needed that would provide safe access while protecting the grass underneath.

The GroundGuards Solution: FastCover Walkway

GroundGuards recommended FastCover, a cost-effective and highly practical ground protection solution.

Made from 100% recycled PVC, FastCover mats are strong and weather-resistant, with interlocking lips that create a secure, trip-free surface. The anti-slip tread pattern enhances pedestrian safety, even in wet weather.

Installation was quick and straightforward. The mats were laid to form a tidy temporary walkway that guided visitors safely across the lawn. Their clean black finish helped maintain the high visual standards expected at such a prestigious venue.

Results & Outcome: A Safe Pathway with a Lasting Impression

The temporary pathway enabled visitors to move freely around the site while construction work continued undisturbed. Most importantly, the lawn remained protected throughout the project.

Feedback from the site team was very positive:
“The mats fit together really well. We’re very pleased!”

The project successfully protected the grass and upheld the quality of the visitor experience at this historic site.
