Family run · Groundworks & landscaping

Precision in
every project.
Quality in every finish.

Driveways, patios, drainage and foundations — surveyed, dug and finished by one team. Every job starts with a site visit and a fixed written price, so you know exactly what is being built and what it costs before a spade touches the soil.

Turfing & planting

Ground graded, raked and fed before turf or seed goes down, then beds, borders and planting that suit the soil and the aspect.

Site clearance

Overgrown plots cleared, trees and stumps removed, spoil taken away and the site left level, tidy and ready for the next stage.

02How it works

Four stages, no guesswork.

Most of the problems on a groundworks job are decided before the first delivery arrives. We plan the build in this order so nothing gets worked out on the day.

01

Site visit

We come out, measure up, and look properly at levels, drainage and access before anything gets priced.

02

Fixed quote

A written, itemised price with the specification and a start date. No day-rate surprises halfway through.

03

The dig

Groundworks first — excavation, drainage and sub-base, photographed as each layer goes in.

04

The finish

Surfaces laid, edges set, site cleaned and swept, then handed over with everything explained.

04Reviews

Most of our work comes from the house two doors down.

Reviews here are left by our clients after the job is completed.

05Where we work

Local enough to be on site early, small enough to care who did the work.

We work across Thanet and the surrounding areas — Margate, Broadstairs, Ramsgate, Birchington, Westgate and the villages between. If you are not sure whether we cover your road, ask in the quote form — we will tell you straight.
