Foundation & Groundworks

Ground preparation, footings, slabs, hardcore and below-ground services.

Groundworks carry the structure. We prepare and construct footings, ground beams, hardcore beds and slabs, together with the below-ground drainage and service routes that must be right before anything is built over them.

What's Included

  • Strip, pad and raft foundations
  • Hardcore filling and blinding
  • Reinforcement fixing and concrete placement
  • Below-ground drainage and ducting
  • Ground beams and retaining structures

Typical Applications

  • Residential and commercial substructures
  • Machine and equipment bases
  • Boundary and retaining walls
  • Ground floor slabs

Equipment Used

  • Excavators
  • Backhoe loaders
  • Compaction plant
  • Concrete equipment

Key Considerations

  • Bearing capacity of the founding stratum
  • Setting-out accuracy and level control
  • Concrete curing in hot or wet conditions
  • Coordination with structural design
