Overview

Groundworks: designed, engineered and built in-house

We are groundworks contractors in London working for homeowners, developers and main contractors. Our team carries out site clearance, excavation, foundations, drainage and ground floor slabs, with our own engineers available to resolve design questions on site.

We cover 9 councils across South West London and Surrey, and every project is run by one team from survey to sign-off. It is often combined with drainage and rc frames & concrete works.

Costs and timescales

Every project is priced after a survey, because ground conditions, structure and finishes vary from house to house. We give you an itemised quote and a written programme, so you know what you are paying for and when each stage happens.
