Who this service is for
Most surfacing problems are groundworks problems. We carry out the dig, base and drainage in-house, so one team is accountable for what goes under the surface as well as the surface.
For main contractors, developers and site owners who want groundworks and surfacing from a single contractor.

- Site strip, excavation and spoil removal
- Type 1 sub-base laid and compacted
- Drainage, gullies and channel drains
- Kerbs, edgings and ramps

Typical commercial clients

- Commercial landlords
- Schools and academies
- Facilities managers
- Business owners extending sites

RAMS and risk assessments provided and utilities checked before digging.
Durability
Compacted, properly drained bases are what keep surfaces lasting.
Repairs or full builds
We can rebuild a failed area or construct a whole new yard.

Can you do groundworks and surfacing in one visit?
Yes. Programming both together avoids gaps between trades.
Do you check for services before digging?
Yes, we plan with service drawings and safe digging practice, and RAMS are available.
Do you deal with drainage?
Yes. Gullies, channels and soakaway connections are part of our groundworks.
Can you work as a subcontractor?
Yes. We work for main contractors as well as directly for site owners.
What if the ground is poor?
We identify this on the survey and propose a stabilised or thicker base before pricing.
