Dorset groundworks

Groundworks

Dorset groundworks are an essential part of the building process, and something that takes place both before construction can begin and after the built structure is in place. It’s a complex area that requires proper scheduling and implementation if a new house or extension is to rest on firm foundations.

Excavations

In many building projects in Dorset and beyond, excavations work is often a necessary part of the preparation of the site being developed. The job entails the removal of earth and other materials in order to create the cavities in the ground needed to install foundations for new buildings, for instance.

Footings & Underpinning

A key part of many construction projects in Dorset are the footings. They’re the very basis of a firm foundation – and a stable building in future. If you need expertise in carrying out this vital step, speak to the VP Lewis Groundworks team. Footings are one of the most important parts of the construction of the foundations.
