Groundworks: useful information
Do I need completed drawings to enquire?
No. Start with the site location, photographs and a description of the work. Tell us what information is available and what still needs to be established.
Can I enquire about work at an existing commercial site?
Yes. Include details of site operations, delivery routes and access restrictions so these can be considered when reviewing the proposed work.
What determines a groundworks quotation?
The defined scope, ground conditions, access, quantities, disposal and reinstatement requirements all affect the package. A price follows a review of the project information; this site does not offer a one-size-fits-all rate.
