One Contractor for Demolition and Groundworks
If your project involves removing an existing building before construction starts, we can handle both stages.
You deal directly with Jake rather than arranging separate demolition and groundworks contractors. We can plan the demolition, clear the site and move on to foundations and drainage without a separate contractor taking over.
This makes it easier to coordinate the work and prepare the site for your builder.

Foundations, drainage, service ducts and groundworks to DPC for individual new homes and developments with several plots.
Garage demolition, excavation, foundations, drainage and oversite preparation for house extensions and annexes.
Demolition of houses, garages, farm buildings and commercial structures, with the site cleared ready for redevelopment.
Farm building demolition, grain bin removal, tank dismantling, concrete bases and groundworks for agricultural buildings.
Concrete slabs, raft foundations and bases for buildings, equipment and sites with challenging ground conditions.
