Solid Foundations

Every Great Build Starts Below Ground

Drainage, foundations, underpinning, and site preparation — the critical groundwork that determines the success of your entire project.

Our Groundworks Services

Groundworks form the foundation of every construction project — literally. Poor groundwork leads to structural problems, drainage issues, and costly remedial work down the line. At Construct Group, we take groundworks seriously because we know that what happens below ground determines the success of everything above it.

Our groundworks services include site clearance and preparation, excavation, foundation construction (strip, trench, raft, and piled), drainage installation, soakaway construction, underpinning, and substructure works. We also handle utility connections, temporary works, and site access construction.

Whether we are preparing ground for a new build, an extension, or a basement conversion, our groundworks team follows precise engineering specifications and building regulations to deliver a solid, compliant base for your project.

Experience You Can Build On

Groundworks require specialist knowledge of soil conditions, load calculations, drainage design, and below-ground construction techniques. Our team has extensive experience working across a wide range of ground conditions and site types — from London clay to the varied geology of the North East.

We work directly with structural engineers and building control inspectors to ensure foundation designs are appropriate for site conditions. Where ground investigations reveal challenging conditions, we have the expertise to adapt foundation solutions accordingly.

All groundworks are carried out to current building regulations and British Standards, with full documentation and photographs provided for building control sign-off.
