GROUNDWORKS 

Comprehensive Groundworks Services for your Construction Projects.

Our groundworks service lays the solid foundation for your construction projects, ensuring every phase is meticulously planned and executed. From initial site assessment to final groundwork completion, we manage every detail to provide a seamless experience for our clients. Our services include site remediation, enabling works, bulk excavation, drainage and services, foundations, beam and block flooring and suspended and ground-bearing slab construction.

Site Remediation.

Ensuring your site is safe and ready for construction is our top priority. Our site remediation services address environmental concerns such as contamination and unstable soil. We conduct thorough assessments using advanced soil testing and environmental analysis techniques to identify and mitigate any hazards. Our remediation process includes the removal of contaminants, soil stabilisation, and waste management, ensuring your site meets all regulatory requirements and is prepared for construction.

Enabling Works.

We prepare your site for construction with our comprehensive enabling works. This crucial phase includes creating temporary access roads to facilitate the movement of construction vehicles and equipment. We also install protective fencing to secure the site and ensure compliance with safety regulations. Additionally, our team can handle any necessary deconstruction, including the safe demolition of existing structures, to clear the way for your new project. Our enabling works ensure your site is fully prepared and compliant with all regulations before the main construction begins.

Bulk Excavation.

Our bulk excavation services involve removing large quantities of earth and rock to create the perfect foundation for your project. We perform excavations safely and efficiently using state-of-the-art machinery and techniques, minimising disruption to the surrounding area. Our team carefully plans each excavation to ensure precision and safety, considering soil type, water table levels and site accessibility. We also handle the disposal of excavated materials in an environmentally responsible manner.

Drainage and Services.

Proper drainage is crucial to the longevity and safety of any construction project. We assess your site’s specific needs and create customised drainage solutions, including surface water drainage, sub-surface drainage, and stormwater management systems. Additionally, we install essential services such as water, electricity and gas lines. Our team ensures that all services are installed to the highest standards, complying with all relevant regulations and industry best practices.

Foundations.

A strong foundation is critical to any successful construction project. Our team specialises in various foundation types, including strip foundations for lighter structures, raft foundations for sites with poor load-bearing capacity and piled foundations for deep and challenging ground conditions. We ensure that your foundation is built to the highest standards, providing the stability and support your project requires. Our foundation services include detailed ground investigations, load-bearing calculations and the use of high quality materials to ensure long-term durability and performance.

Beam and Block Flooring.

Beam and block flooring is popular for many construction projects due to its strength and versatility. Our team has extensive experience installing beam and block floors, ensuring a durable and level base for your building. This method involves placing precast concrete beams across foundation walls and infilling with concrete blocks, creating a robust and efficient flooring system. We ensure that each beam and block floor is precisely installed to provide excellent load distribution and resistance to subsidence.

Suspended and Ground Bearing Slab Construction.

We offer both suspended and ground bearing slab construction to suit the specific needs of your project. Suspended slabs are ideal for sites with unstable soil or areas prone to flooding, as they are elevated above the ground. Ground bearing slabs, on the other hand, are constructed directly on prepared subsoil and are suitable for stable ground conditions. Our slabs are designed and built precisely, using reinforced concrete to ensure optimal performance and longevity. We consider factors such as load requirements, thermal insulation, and moisture resistance to provide the best solution for your project.

Innovative Technology and Safety Standards.

Our innovative team employs the latest technology and thinking while adhering to the highest safety standards. From 3D modelling and GPS-guided machinery to advanced safety protocols, we guarantee exceptional workmanship and precision in every aspect of the groundwork process. Our use of cutting-edge technology allows us to plan and execute projects with unparalleled accuracy, reducing waste and improving efficiency. We also prioritise safety, implementing rigorous training programs and regular site inspections to ensure compliance with all safety regulations and protect our team, clients and the surrounding community.
