FAQs
Groundwork is important part of the construction process. It lays the foundation that all construction work will sit on and ensures that the ground is well prepared and suitable for the project.
No, groundworks and foundations are two different things. Groundwork is the first stage of a building project that prepares that site for further work. Foundations are first stage of the building project.
The groundwork itself does probably not need a planning permission, but as it often is the first stage of a larger building project, the likelihood is that planning permission will already be in place.
Groundworks can include anything from demolition, ground investigation, and site clearance, to installation of footings and foundations.
Groundworks are usually charged by square meter. For something like new foundations, the average cost is around £125 per square meter.
