Driveways Mackworth
Everything from minor repairs to full excavations of an area, we do it. Before we start preparing a driveway for you, we first inspect the area. We check drainage and make sure that there are no problems. An issue that is common is the sloping driveway toward the property. This problem can be fixed by either fixing the levels or installing sufficient drainage. All resin driveways are installed according to the SUDS Building Regulations.
We can prepare your driveway for resin by laying concrete or a tarmac base course depending on the existing surface. In an average job, we will dig down 220mm. From there, we build a solid base. We start by laying a ground stabilising membrane. This membrane is then covered in type 1 stones. These layers are compacted and create a solid base to the driveway.

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 has a different foundation than a wall because it does not have a complete length. Fence use is strictly regulated in most developed areas, including residential, commercial, and agricultural areas. Regulations are applicable to height, material, setback, aesthetic, and other factors.
Fencing creates privacy, security, shade and changes the appearance of outdoor spaces. Garden fencing comes in a variety sizes and styles.

We will provide emergency services and first aid training if required. Our friendly and professional team includes excavating contractors who are happy to provide advice and listen to your development plans to prepare your site.
Soakaways
Soakaways can be either square or round excavations that are filled with rubble, or lined with brickwork or pre-cast concrete. They can be linked together to drain large areas. Modular or geocellular units can replace the support structure and backfill.
Soakaways can be easily integrated into sites, but they offer little in the form of amenity and 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 an alternative to draining surface water through a stream or sewer system. 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 options for creating a water body. Most involve digging a hole to the required size. The difference is in the type of impervious materials used to line that hole. These materials include concrete, semi-solid preformed pools and waterproof liners. A pond is an ideal way to include water in your garden. To avoid leaves and excess shade, ponds should be placed in direct sunlight.
It is possible to have a pond in a formal backyard. 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). An artificial filtration system is required for smaller ponds.

You need to understand the location of drains. If you don’t know where drains are, or if your groundworks contractor doesn’t offer this service, it’s worth calling an experienced drainage company to assist.
Foundations
Strip foundations can be required in soft soils, such like sand. They spread the load of the building over a larger surface. Foundations are necessary for all houses to ensure that the walls can withstand the natural movements of the earth and prevent them from sinking into it. This section will show you how to properly dig foundations. It will also explain the various drainage options, such as soakaways or French drains.
Digging the foundation trenches for groundwork is much easier with machinery, as you can easily get the digger on the building site. 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 gives buildings structure.
Footings
Foundation construction plays an important role in footings. They are used to hold the foundations in place and prevent them settling. These solutions are essential in areas with difficult soil, which can cause foundations to shift rapidly or not provide reliable support for the building. Because footings play an essential role in construction, it’s important to have a groundworks team with extensive experience.
Foundations are vital components of any construction. They should be supported by the expertise of footing contractors. Foundations are essential for any construction. This includes multi-bedroom homes and decking. Without them, any structure can be unstable and even collapse. All types of buildings, whether residential, commercial or industrial, require solid footings.
Depending on what kind of soil you work with and what type of foundations are being built, footings sizes and layouts will differ. The concrete footing contractors can help you determine the width, length and depth of your concrete feet. For the best foundation support, you will also require a professional groundworks crew to design the footings.
