Services on offer
The groundworks and site work we carry out on residential developments
Site clearance and preparation
We clear vegetation and old hardstanding, then strip topsoil and level the plot so your build starts on ground that has been graded and compacted to the engineer's specification.
Foundations and footings
Trench fill, strip foundations and piled caps go in to the depths and widths shown on your approved drawings, with concrete tested and recorded so the building control sign-off is straightforward.
Drainage and below-ground services
Foul and surface water runs are laid to falls, with inspection chambers, connections and soakaways installed, then pressure-tested and mapped before anything is covered over.
Driveways, paths and hardstanding
Your access road, drive and parking areas are built up in layers, from the sub-base right through to block paving or tarmac, and kerbs and edgings are set to hold the finished surface in place.
Boundary walls and fencing
We build the retaining walls, garden walls and close-board fencing that mark your plot edges, sized to suit the ground levels and finished to match the rest of the scheme.
Patios, decking bases and external finishes
Once the shell is up, we lay the concrete bases and sub-frames for decking, form patios in the paving you have chosen, and put in the steps and level changes around the house.
