From small repairs to complete excavations, we can do it all. Before we start preparing a driveway for you, we first inspect the area. We check drainage and make sure that there are no problems. The most common problem is the slope of the driveway towards the property. We would either correct the levels or install adequate drainage. All resin driveways must be installed in compliance with the SUDS building regulations.
Based on the type of driveway you have, we can either put concrete or prepare a base coat of tarmac before applying a resin finish. In an average job, we will dig down 220mm. From there, we build a solid base. We start with a ground stabilizing membrane that is covered in 150mm type 1 stone. These layers are compacted and create a solid base to the driveway.
Each kerbing we place is strengthened by being embedded in concrete. The wide selection of materials we can offer will make your driveway unique. We can create your vision, no matter what it is.

Soakaways
Soakaways can be either square or round excavations that are filled with rubble, or lined with brickwork or pre-cast concrete. To drain large areas of land, such as highways, they can be linked together. Geocellular or modular units can replace the backfill and supporting structure.
They are easy to install on a site. However they do not offer much in the way amenity or biodiversity value. They can however increase soil moisture and help to recharge groundwater. This helps to alleviate problems associated with low river flows.
Soakaways are used for managing surface water at its source and can also be used as an alternative to draining water from a stream/sewer network. The soakaways are an effective method of managing surface water. They gather all water runoff and permit it to percolate in controlled ways into the soil/ground around the point where it falls.
Ponds
There are many ways to create a pond. Most require digging a hole in the desired shape. What is more important is the type and amount of impervious material that is used to line the hole. These materials include concrete, semi-solid preformed pools and waterproof liners. Ponds can be used to create water features and habitats in a garden. For the best water quality, they should be in full sun and away from any overhanging trees.
A pond that is square, rectangular, or circular can be placed comfortably in a formal garden. An irregular-shaped, natural-looking pond will look better in formal gardens. To ensure that water is well-aerated and clear, fish and other plants must be kept within a 38 sq ft area (3.5 sqm). Artificial filtration systems are required for smaller ponds.

An experienced drainage company should be contacted if you are unsure about the location of drains. They can also advise on how to best install drainage to your property, if necessary.
Foundations
Strip foundations are necessary for softer soils such as sand because they distribute the building’s weight over a greater area. Foundations are essential for houses. They provide protection against soil sinking and allow the earth to move with the seasons. We will be discussing the different foundation types and how they can be dug.
Digging out foundation trenches with machinery is easier when you have access to it. For those who need to dig up earth manually, we can provide guidance on how to load a wagon and ensure it is safe. The foundation of any building is the area below the soil that is used to support the building. Foundation is the foundation that gives structure to buildings.
Footings
Foundation construction is not complete without footings. They are used primarily for supporting the foundations and preventing them from settling. These solutions are crucial in areas where the soil is difficult. Foundations can shift quickly and provide poor support. Because footings play an essential role in construction, it’s important to have a groundworks team with extensive experience.
A solid foundation and the work of experienced footing contractors are essential parts of any construction. Any construction, from multi-bed homes to decking, can become unstable and collapse without the right foundations. Reliable footings is essential for all kinds of buildings including residential, commercial and industrial.
The layout and size of your footings may change depending on the soil type and foundations that you are using.
