Fencing
A fence, which is a type of structure, encloses an area. Usually, it is made from posts, wire, rails, netting, and boards.

Soakaways
Soakaways, which can be square or circular in shape, are made of rubble filled or lined with brickwork and pre-cast concrete. To drain large areas, these can be connected together. Geocellular or modular units may be used in place of the supporting structure.
They are easy to install on a site. However they do not offer much in the way amenity or biodiversity value. They can, however, improve soil moisture and replenish groundwater, helping to mitigate low river flows.
Soakaways are an alternative to draining surface water through a stream or sewer system. Soakaways are a great way to manage surface water. The soakaways gather all the run-off from the surface, and then allow it percolate in a controlled manner into any ground or soil around it.
Ponds
There are many methods of creating a lake. Most involve digging out a hole that has the desired shape. But, what makes it different is the impervious material you use to line the hole. These materials include concrete, semi-solid preformed pools and waterproof liners. A pond is an ideal way to include water in your garden. For the best water quality, they should be in full sun and away from any overhanging trees.
A pond that is square, rectangular, or circular can be placed comfortably in a formal garden. An irregular-shaped pond is more natural for gardens with less formality. 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). For smaller ponds, an artificial filter system will be required.

Our team of drainage engineers has been creating stunning exterior designs that are both eye-catching and offer practical plumbing benefits over the years. To maintain reliable service for many decades, it’s crucial to make sure your drains are in good condition. The disruption of work that is done after construction is complete may be caused by the need for remedial work.
Locating drains – First, it is essential to find out where the drains are located and – in the case of a completely new construction – how your new property would connect with the main system. 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 are necessary for softer soils such as sand because they distribute the building’s weight over a greater area. Foundations are essential for houses. They provide protection against soil sinking and allow the earth to move with the seasons. 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 foundation trenches is easier when there’s machinery available to help you get the digger onto your building site. To ensure that you use your wheelbarrow safely, we provide information on how to load it. The foundation refers to the portion of the building’s bottom that is attached in and above the soil. Foundation gives buildings structure.
Footings
Foundation construction plays an important role in footings. They are used to support foundations and keep them from sinking. These solutions can be very useful in areas of poor soil, where foundations may shift quickly or give no support to the building. Your groundworks team should have extensive experience dealing with footings, as they play an integral part in construction.
A solid foundation and the work of experienced footing contractors are essential parts of any construction. Any construction, from multi-bed homes to decking, can become unstable and collapse without the right foundations. Reliable footings are essential for all types of buildings: residential, commercial, and industrial.
Depending on what kind of soil you work with and what type of foundations are being built, footings sizes and layouts will differ. Your concrete footing contractor will tell you how large, deep and how long your concrete footings must be. A professional groundworks team will be needed to help you choose the right layout for these footings. This will ensure that your foundations are supported with the greatest reliability.
