Core coverage
Commercial groundworks and civils packages across London and the South East.
All areas we coverLarge-scale muck shift under a managed haulage plan, dug down to formation level and away off site without the lorries taking over your programme.
Bulk excavation is as much a logistics job as a digging one. The dig itself is straightforward; what decides whether it runs is the haulage plan — how many wagons, on what route, at what times, and where they turn round without blocking everyone else on site.
We plan that before we mobilise, then dig to formation with levels checked as we go, so the foundations gang is not waiting on a re-dig.
Quantities taken off your drawings so the wagon count and the cost are known up front.
Material kept and re-used wherever the specification allows, cutting movements and cost.
Wheel wash, road sweeping and timed movements so the haulage does not land on the street.
Scope is taken from your drawings — this is what it usually contains.
Excavation down to the levels on the engineer’s drawings.
Removal off site under a managed haulage plan, tracked and documented.
Re-use of suitable material on site to balance levels.
Basement and below-formation digs with temporary support where needed.
Trenches for ground beams, pile caps and service runs.
Capping and blinding so the formation is not spoiled by weather or traffic.
The same sequence every time, so you know what happens next and who owns it.
We measure the volume from your drawings and set the wagon numbers, route and timings before anything moves.
Access, turning areas, wheel wash and segregation put in so haulage never blocks the rest of the site.
Excavation to formation with levels checked as the dig progresses, not after it.
Suitable material re-used on site, the rest removed and tracked off under the haulage plan.
Levels confirmed, formation protected and signed off ready for the substructure.

If yours is not here, call the office — you will get a straight answer, not a callback form.
01895 725125We take the volume off your drawings, allow for bulking, and set the wagon count against the programme. You get the number up front, so the haulage cost is not a surprise halfway through the dig.
Wherever the specification allows, yes. Re-using suitable arisings cuts both lorry movements and cost, and it is usually the single biggest saving available on a dig of any size.
We stop, tell you the same day, and price the change before we carry on. Service searches and a site survey before mobilisation mean this happens far less often than it might.
Yes. Haul routes, timed movements, wheel wash and segregation are planned so the dig stays clear of whoever is still using the site.
Yes, where the dig needs it. Temporary works are planned and checked to the relevant British Standard rather than improvised on site.
