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 how excavated material will be handled
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.
Understand the full cost
Compare the complete groundwork proposal rather than focusing only on labour or machinery rates. Excavation, aggregates, concrete, drainage products, equipment, haulage and disposal of excavated material can all contribute to the overall cost.
Ask whether foreseeable additional charges and VAT, where applicable, have been included within the quotation.
Ask how unexpected work will be agreed
Excavation can reveal conditions that were not visible when the original quotation was prepared. Ask how additional excavation, materials or other unforeseen work would be explained and priced before proceeding beyond the agreed scope.
Significant variations are best confirmed in writing so both parties understand the revised work and cost.
Check relevant groundwork experience
Ask whether the groundwork contractor has recent experience with the particular type of work your project requires. Excavation, foundations, drainage, site preparation and concrete work can involve different equipment and technical considerations.
Where available, ask about comparable completed projects and how the proposed approach suits your site.
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.

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.
