Groundworks in Bromley

Professional Groundwork Services in Bromley

Groundworks is the part of a project nobody admires once it is finished, yet every structure and surface above depends on it. In Bromley we prepare sites for new builds, extensions, driveways and car parks, getting the levels, drainage and foundations right before anything goes on top.

The firm has spent over 20 years on this kind of work, including contracts for Kent County Council and utility companies, so working to a specification and having that work inspected is familiar ground.

Frequently Asked Questions

Groundworks in Bromley: Common Questions

Do you take on groundworks projects in Bromley?

Yes. Our base is in Staplehurst, and we work across Kent, parts of East and West Sussex and south-east London, so Bromley and the surrounding BR1-BR2 area are covered.

What happens to the soil and spoil from excavation?

Spoil is reused on site where it is suitable, for example to adjust levels, and the rest is loaded and taken away. Grab lorries keep removal quick on larger jobs, and your quote sets out how the waste will be handled.

How long will the groundworks take?

It depends on the size of the project, the ground conditions and the weather, which affects excavation and concrete work in particular. We give you a programme with the quote and keep you informed if anything on site changes it. Call 020 8226 4507 to discuss your project.

Do you take on domestic groundworks as well as commercial?

Yes. Alongside commercial housing and industrial projects, we dig footings for extensions, prepare ground for driveways and outbuildings, and install drainage and soakaways for homeowners.

Can you work alongside our main contractor?

Yes. We can work directly with you or your site manager and fit our programme around the other trades on site.
