Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in groundwork services? +
Groundwork covers all below-surface and surface preparation needed before construction begins. This includes site clearance, excavation, soil removal, levelling, drainage installation, trenching for utilities, sub-base preparation, and laying foundations or footings. It forms the critical first phase of any construction project.
Do you carry out groundwork for commercial projects? +
Yes. We work with both residential homeowners and commercial clients, including builders, developers, and contractors. Our team is experienced in working to tight schedules and specifications, and we carry full public liability insurance for all our groundwork operations.
Can you handle poor or unstable ground conditions? +
Yes. Our team assesses ground conditions prior to starting work and can advise on appropriate solutions for challenging sites, including soft or waterlogged ground. In some cases, we may recommend deeper excavation, compacted hardcore sub-bases, or alternative foundation solutions to ensure stability.
How long does groundwork take? +
The duration depends on the size and complexity of the project. A simple residential groundwork job such as excavation for a garden building base may take one to two days. Larger commercial projects involving drainage, utilities, and extensive excavation can take several weeks. We provide a clear timeline with every quote.
