Driveways Cotgrave
Everything from minor repairs to full excavations of an area, we do it. Before we prepare a driveway, it is necessary to survey the area. This includes checking drainage issues and assessing levels. The most common problem is the slope of the driveway towards the property. We would either correct the levels or install adequate drainage. We make sure that resin driveways comply with all SUDS building regulations.
Based on the type of driveway you have, we can either put concrete or prepare a base coat of tarmac before applying a resin finish. In an average job, we will dig down 220mm. From there, we build a solid base. We start with a ground stabilizing membrane that is covered in 150mm type 1 stone. These layers of stones are compressed, creating a solid base for driveway.
Every kerbing we install is reinforced with concrete casings. We have a wide range of materials that can be used to create your driveway. No matter your preference, we can make it a reality.

Fencing
A fence is a structure which encloses an area. It is often constructed from posts that are connected using wire, rails, boards or netting. A fence has a different foundation than a wall because it does not have a complete length. Most developed areas have regulations regarding fencing, both residentially and commercially. There are many factors that need to be considered when regulating fencing, including height, material, setback and aesthetics.
Fencing can be used to create privacy, security, shade, and a change in the look of an outdoor area. Garden fencing comes in a variety sizes and styles. It can be used to create property boundaries or corral livestock. You will find a wide range of fencing materials and products from the top fencing suppliers in this collection.

Excavations
You should seek out someone with experience in underground cable detection techniques if you’re digging near your cables.
Before any excavation work begins, it is important to obtain plans or other information regarding all buried services in your area. If excavation is needed in an emergency, or if plans or other information cannot easily be found, the work must be performed as if there are still buried services.
If required, we will provide facilities for the welfare of our clients and a trained person who is qualified to give first aid. Our friendly, professional excavating team is always willing to listen to your plans and offer advice to help prepare your site to construction.
Soakaways
Soakaways are either rectangular or square excavations filled with rubble or lined by brickwork, precast concrete or polyethylene rings/perforated stock structures. They are surrounded with granular backfill. You can group them together and link them together to drain large areas, including highways. Geocellular or modular units can replace the backfill and supporting structure.
Soakaways can be easily integrated into sites, but they offer little in the form of amenity and biodiversity value. They do however increase soil moisture content and recharge groundwater. This can help reduce the impact of low river flows.
Soakaways can be used to manage surface water directly at the source. They also serve as an alternative to draining it via a stream/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 several ways to make a pond. 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. There are three types of liners: concrete, semi-solid preformed lakes and flexible waterproof liners. Ponds are an excellent way to add water to a garden. For the best water quality, they should be in full sun and away from any overhanging trees.
It is possible to have a pond in a formal backyard. An irregular-shaped pool looks natural in smaller gardens. In order to keep the water clear and well aerated, aim for a surface area of no more than 38 sq.ft (3.55 sq.m) where fish and water plants are required. A filtration system for small ponds is needed.
A pond or lake can be a focal point for any property, provided it is designed well. People underestimate the work involved. It’s not as easy as just filling a hole with water.

Drainage
There are many types of drainage that can be used in your garden. It all depends on where it is located, how high the site is, and what restrictions or flooding the area has. Once the ground material has been mixed with the correct amount of drainage materials, the surface is ready for seeding and plantout.
Our team of drainage experts and landscaping specialists have worked together over the years to create beautiful exterior designs that not only catch the eye but also provide practical plumbing benefits. To maintain reliable service for many decades, it’s crucial to make sure your drains are in good condition. Repairs after construction is complete can cause disruption.
You need to understand the location of drains. An experienced drainage company should be contacted if you are unsure about the location of drains. They can also advise on how to best install drainage to your property, if necessary.
Foundations
In softer soils like sand, strip foundations may be necessary to spread the building’s load over a larger area. Foundations are necessary for all houses to ensure that the walls can withstand the natural movements of the earth and prevent them from sinking into it. We’ll be looking at different types, how to build them, and the different drainage methods such as soakaways, French drains, and land drains.
Digging foundation trenches can be done more easily with machinery that can move the digger onto the site. For those who need to dig up earth manually, we can provide guidance on how to load a wagon and ensure it is safe. The foundation of any building is the area below the soil that is used to support the building. Foundation is the foundation that gives structure to buildings.
Footings
The foundation construction process is not complete without the footings. They are used to hold the foundations in place and prevent them settling. These solutions are crucial in areas where the soil is difficult. Foundations can shift quickly and provide poor support. It is crucial that your groundworks team has a lot of experience in dealing with footings.
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. A footing contractor can advise you on the dimensions and depth of your concrete footings. For the best foundation support, you will also require a professional groundworks crew to design the footings.
