Groundworks & Foundations

Strong Foundations for Every Project

Quality groundworks are essential to the success, stability and longevity of any construction or landscaping project. From preparing the site and creating solid foundations to installing effective drainage and achieving the correct ground levels, the work completed below the surface provides the basis for everything that follows.

We provide a comprehensive range of groundwork services for both construction and landscaping projects, including site clearance, excavation, foundations, concrete bases, drainage, service preparation and sub-base installation. Whether the work is required for an extension, outbuilding, driveway, patio or larger landscaping project, we ensure the site is properly prepared for the next stage of construction. Standalone groundwork projects may also be considered depending on the nature, location and scale of the work.

Why Choose Us?

Our combined experience in construction and landscaping gives us a strong practical understanding of excavation, drainage, ground conditions, levels and sub-base preparation. We know that cutting corners at the groundwork stage can lead to movement, cracking, drainage problems and costly remedial work further down the line.

We take the time to prepare each site correctly and ensure that foundations, drainage and ground preparation are suitable for the proposed project and site conditions. By managing both the groundwork and the construction or landscaping work that follows, we can provide a more efficient and coordinated service from the ground up.

  JM Landscape have just completed a new drive and re grout an existing patio The work is excellent and we are delighted with the end result. Tidy workmanship and very friendly guys. The patio re grouting was painstaking work getting all the old remaining grout out and a lighter grout was suggested and it looks fantastic. Highly recommend J M Landscape

  I can’t recommend Jamie enough. We engaged him to help us with urgent repairs to our extension, and he has genuinely gone above and beyond every step of the way. From the very first conversation, Jamie was incredibly responsive — always quick to reply, happy to accommodate our schedule, and completely professional throughout. He clearly takes real pride in his work, and it shows in the quality and care he brings to every detail. Having someone this reliable and easy to work with made a stressful situation so much easier to manage. We’ll absolutely be coming back to Jamie and his team for any future work, and we recommend him wholeheartedly.

  We tried to get our garden sorted last year after seeing works by Jamie and his team, weather did not allow. This year we resheduled again. Our plan was to have artificial turf which is pet friendly.  Unfortunately the previous landscaping company did not install correctly leaving us with a product and space  we could not use. Jamie came round, explained what needed doing and how to achieve end result. Tim and Brandon carried out the works for us, a few extras were added during the works which we agreed to. Have to say, I run a business as well, and it's so nice to have a company that respond to phone call, messages and emails. They have always kept me informed on progress, times and program of works. So happy with Jamie and everyone included in getting our garden sorted. We now have a garden that we are happy to enjoy and sit in. Thank you guys.

  Very pleased with the work to fill in a window, brickwork was an excellent match,  you would not notice that there had ever been a window there. Also the tradesmen were a pleasure to have on site and they cleared up very well. We won't hesitate to use this company again.

  Fantastic work on our garden. Really helpful  suggestions when Jamie quoted & the lads were great in last week's heat. Patio area where we had a shed base & replacement fencing panels that were crumbling. Looks fab & everything tidied up - even grass seeded by edge of patio. Couldn't recommend more.

  We recently had an extension completed on our home by JM Landscape and Construction, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. From the initial consultation with Jamie the director, through to completion, the entire process was handled with professionalism, expertise, and great attention to detail. The team was reliable, hardworking, and Jamie kept us informed throughout every stage of the project. They completed the work on time and to an exceptionally high standard, exceeding our expectations in both quality and finish. Their craftsmanship is outstanding, and it’s clear they take great pride in their work. The site was kept tidy, and any questions or concerns were addressed promptly and professionally. We would highly recommend this company to anyone considering a house extension or building project. A first-class service from start to finish, and we are absolutely delighted with our new family space.
