Ground Preparation Done Properly
The finished driveway, patio, retaining wall or landscaped area is only as good as the groundwork beneath and around it.
EBP carries out the excavation, preparation, drainage and level changes needed before many exterior property projects can be completed. This can range from preparing a residential driveway to substantial ground reshaping around sloping properties.
Because we also undertake surfacing, paving and stone walling, different stages of a project can be handled by the same experienced team.

Groundworks involves creating the correct levels, support and preparation for whatever is being constructed above it.
On more involved projects this may include excavation around the property, removal of existing material, foundation preparation, drainage, retaining walls and preparation for the final finished surface.
- Correct site levels and preparation
- Suitable bases for intended use
- Consideration of drainage and water flow

- Integration with retaining walls and landscaping
From Excavation to the Finished Project
Assess the Site
We assess the existing surface, access, levels and the requirements of the proposed project.
Excavation
Existing ground or unwanted material is excavated where required.
Preparation
Levels, drainage and suitable bases are prepared for the next stage of construction.
Finished Work
The area can then be completed with stonework, paving, landscaping or driveway surfacing.

Preparation is particularly important when installing a new driveway. The existing surface may need to be removed before suitable levels, sub-base and drainage can be established for the new driveway.
EBP carries out both the preparation and finished surfacing, including tarmac driveways and block paving.
Keeping these stages together means the groundwork can be planned around the intended finished surface rather than treated as an unrelated job.
Groundworks for Retaining Walls & Sloping Sites
Sloping properties can require considerable groundwork before new usable areas can be created.
Excavation and changes in level may be combined with foundations, drainage and natural stone retaining walls to support the surrounding ground and create driveways, paths, gardens or access areas.
EBP regularly combines this type of groundwork with natural stone walling, allowing the structural preparation and visible finishing work to form part of the same project.
