Our Groundworks Services Process
We begin with site assessment and specification review, understanding exactly what the project requires. Digging and excavation remove material to correct depths and widths, with spoil managed appropriately. Formation levels are established accurately to ensure consistency across the site.
Sub-bases and bases are laid and compacted in layers, with each layer checked before proceeding. Drainage runs and footings are excavated and prepared where required, with connections planned for later installation.
Throughout, we maintain site safety, manage materials efficiently, and coordinate with follow-on trades or phases.
Groundworks FAQs
What sub-base specifications are typical for landscaping?
Type 1 hardcore at 100mm to 200mm depth, compacted in layers, provides standard sub-base for patios and paths. Driveways typically require deeper sub-bases depending on usage. Bases and footings are prepared to suit the structure they support. Transparent quotes include all materials and compaction work required.
How do you ensure accurate levels across sites?
Levels are set and checked throughout excavation and sub-base installation to ensure accuracy. Falls for drainage are built into the formation to prevent standing water and future issues.
Can you handle sites with difficult ground conditions?
Ground conditions are assessed during the initial survey, and excavation depth, bases, levelling, or drainage methods are adjusted accordingly to ensure stability.
What drainage preparation is included in groundworks?
Drainage preparation includes excavating routes, setting correct falls, and preparing runs ready for later connection as part of the wider project.
How do you manage spoil from excavation?
Spoil can be reused for levelling where suitable or removed from site if required. This is discussed during consultation so disposal is clear and agreed upfront.
What compaction standards are used for stable sub-base?
Sub-bases are compacted in layers using appropriate equipment to create a stable foundation that resists settlement and movement over time.

Client Advice
Ask about excavation requirements
Ask about drainage work
If drainage forms part of the groundwork, ask for a clear explanation of what is being installed, altered or connected. Confirm which pipes, channels, chambers or other components are included where relevant and who is responsible for any later connections.
Written clarification is particularly useful where groundwork forms only one stage of a larger project.
Ask how excavated material will be handled
Groundwork can produce substantial quantities of soil, rubble and other excavated material. Ask whether this will be reused on site, stockpiled for later work or removed as waste, and establish what is included within the quoted price.
Clear arrangements can prevent uncertainty about both disposal costs and the condition of the site afterwards.
Check who will complete the work
Ask whether the contractor providing the quotation will carry out the groundwork directly or whether employees or subcontractors will undertake particular stages. Subcontracting is not necessarily a concern, but understanding responsibilities can make communication easier.
Establish who will supervise the site and who you should contact if questions arise during the project.
Ask about machinery and site access
Find out what machinery the contractor expects to use and whether there is suitable access to the working area. Narrow entrances, overhead restrictions, soft ground and neighbouring property can affect equipment choices and working methods.
Discuss access during the quotation stage so practical limitations can be considered before the project starts.
Understand the payment terms
Confirm when payments will be required and whether a deposit is requested before machinery or materials are arranged. For larger groundwork projects, ask whether staged payments apply and what progress each payment relates to.
Recording the agreed payment schedule in writing provides a useful reference throughout the work.

Andrew and team tackled a tricky patch where the ground kept holding water. They prepared the area properly and set it up so drainage should work better.

We had groundworks done as the first stage of a bigger garden project and it set everything up properly. Andy and team dug out to the right depth, built up the base in layers and checked levels throughout.
Drainage falls were planned so water won’t sit where it shouldn’t. The area was left ready for the next trade which kept the whole project moving.

Our garden had a slope and a few soggy patches so the groundwork stage felt important. They shaped the area so it actually makes sense now and you can walk across it without feeling like you’re on a wonky bit of land.
The surface was left ready for the next part of the build and it’s already made the garden feel more usable.

Andrew explained what would happen before starting and kept us updated as the job moved along. The digging was accurate, the base was compacted properly and the levels were consistent.
It’s left us with a site that feels ready rather than half prepared.

Ask the contractor to explain the excavation proposed for your project and what information has been used to determine it. Depth, ground conditions, existing structures and the intended construction can all affect what is required.
Where excavation depends on technical drawings or specifications, make sure the contractor has the relevant information before work begins.
