Fencing
A fence is a structure which encloses an area. It is often constructed from posts that are connected using wire, rails, boards or netting. A fence does not have a solid foundation throughout its length, which is what makes it different from a wall. Fences are regulated in most developed regions, for commercial, residential, as well as agricultural purposes. These considerations include height, material, setback, as well aesthetic issues.

Before any excavation work commences, it is a good idea to get plans or other relevant information about the area’s buried services. If excavation is needed in an emergency, or if plans or other information cannot easily be found, the work must be performed as if there are still buried services.
We will provide emergency services and first aid training if required. Our professional and friendly team of excavating contractors is always available to assist you in preparing your site for construction.
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, these can be connected together. Geocellular or modular units may be used in place of the supporting structure.
Although they are very easy to incorporate into a site’s landscape, they provide little in the way biodiversity or amenity value. They should be entirely underground and should not have any water on the surface. They can however increase soil moisture and help to recharge groundwater. This helps to alleviate problems associated with low river flows.
Soakaways manage surface water at source. 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 involve digging a hole to the required size. The difference is in the type of impervious materials used to line that hole. There are three types of liners: concrete, semi-solid preformed lakes and flexible 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. For fish and water plants, a minimum of 38 square feet (3.5 square m) is required. This will ensure that the water is kept clear and aerated. An artificial filtration system is required for smaller ponds.
A pond, or lake, can add beauty and charm to any property. Many people underestimate the amount of work involved in creating a pond or lake. They soon realize that it is not as simple as filling a hole with water.

In softer soils like sand, strip foundations may be necessary to spread the building’s load over a larger area. Foundations are essential for houses. They provide protection against soil sinking and allow the earth to move with the seasons. We’ll be looking at different types, how to build them, and the different drainage methods such as soakaways, French drains, and land drains.

Footings
Foundation construction plays an important role in footings. They are used primarily for supporting the foundations and preventing them from settling. These solutions can be very useful in areas of poor soil, where foundations may shift quickly or give no support to the building. Groundworks are an essential part of construction. It is vital that you have extensive groundwork experience.
