We love our new patio thanks to Tom and his excellent workmanship. Instantly when my wife & I met him we knew he was the right man for the job. He is such a nice chap and very professional in his approach. Following our first meeting with Tom, he then came back to our home with a selection of stone so we could pick out what we wanted. We felt this was an extra added touch as it gave us a better idea of what would suit our garden. Throughout the job Tom was very punctual, tidy and worked so hard. His attention to detail was exceptional and we really felt that he was doing the patio to the standard he would want in his own home. We found him very honest & trustworthy so much so we had no hesitation to leave our property unlocked when we had to leave the house. We do want to get some further work done at the bottom of our garden & to the entrance of our house and will be defiantly getting Tom back to do this. We would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

Extensions- 14 Feb 2021
Adam and the DJ Russell team have been great, I cannot recommend them highly enough. The job started on the 3rd of November 2020 and was completed on the 3rd of February 2021. All the neighbourhood have been impressed with the speed and accuracy of workmanship displayed. From the general builders (Bruce, Martin and Steve) to the brickies (Paul, Matt and Steve) and to the carpenters (Paolo and Dominic) through to the electricians (Max and his team) and the plumbers (Mark and Jack) and last but not least the plasterers (Gary and Craig) they all have kept me occupied with producing huge quantities of tea and coffee (-: but most of all they have constructed a quality extension for our home. Thank you for all your hard work and professionalism.

Bricklaying- 28 Feb 2021
Brilliant job by Craig - he had to correct poor work done by my previous builder, and i wish i had hired Craig straightaway........ work was done to a superb standard, and all finished very neatly, and measured properly so windows and doors fitted as they should. All mess was cleared up and left tidy, and they even left my mixer cleaner than when they arrived. Would certainly recommend, and will get them back if i need anymore brickwork, groundwork, patio, drive etc doing. Keep up the good work!!

Sean and his team installed a lovely patio at the top of my garden in beautiful grey porcelain tile, they also erected a pergola over part of the patio. The area by the house was enhanced with extra loose stones and the lawn was edged with the same edging brick as the patio. Very happy with the work, they all worked very hard and kept me informed along the way. They also cleared up at the end of the work. Would definitely recommend Sean and his team.

Gd&sons construction
Rating: 5 out of 5
Groundworker in Arlesey
At GD&Sons Construction, we’re a small, family-run building and roofing business with a big ambition. Although the business itself is only four months old, I’ve been working in the roofing and building trade for the past 10 years, gaining the experience and knowledge needed to deliver work I can be proud of. I’m a 25-year-old husband and dad to two young boys, and the reason behind starting GD&Sons Construction is simple — I want to build something that my family can be proud of. My long-term goal is to grow the business into something successful that, one day, my sons can be a part of and hopefully take over themselves. We believe in keeping things friendly, honest and straightforward. Whether it’s a small repair, a roofing project, or a larger building job, we treat every customer and every property with the same care and respect we’d expect for our own home. We’re not trying to be the biggest building company — we’re trying to build a reputation, a loyal customer base and a family business that lasts for generations. GD&Sons Construction — built with experience, built with pride, built for the future.

Where do I start… From beginning to end, my experience with JDS Limited was nothing short of exceptional. The team was incredibly polite, hardworking, and well presented. They recently completed a porcelain patio for me, and as for the finished work—what can I say? I am absolutely over the moon with the end result. I genuinely cannot wait to have JDS back in the future to take on some additional projects. Money well spent. This is exactly what you call a proper company—professional, reliable, and committed to delivering top-quality work.

Here are some key questions you could ask:

What types of groundwork projects have you worked on in Arlesey, and can you share examples?

Look for someone familiar with the local soil, weather, and building requirements. Asking for examples of groundwork project helps you gauge their hands-on experience with tasks like excavation, drainage, or foundation preparation relevant to your needs.

How do you ensure safety and compliance with local Arlesey regulations on site?

FAQ: Common questions about Arlesey groundwork services

What types of groundwork services are typically offered in Arlesey?

Groundworkers in Arlesey usually provide site clearance, soil testing, excavation, drainage system installation, groundwork for foundations, and surface leveling. Depending on your project’s size and nature, these services can be tailored to fit residential, commercial, or infrastructure needs.

How long does groundwork usually take for a project in Arlesey?

The duration depends on factors such as site size, soil conditions, and project complexity. Small residential groundwork might take a few days to a couple of weeks, while larger commercial sites can require several weeks or months, accounting for weather and site accessibility.

Are groundworkers familiar with environmental or planning regulations specific to Arlesey?

Professional groundworkers working regularly in Arlesey keep up to date with local rules, including restrictions related to conservation areas, protected land, or listed buildings, ensuring that groundwork complies with all necessary regulations.

What insurance should a groundwork contractor have?

Groundwork contractors should have public liability insurance to protect against accidental damage or injury on site. If the business employs staff or takes on larger projects, they may also hold employer liability and contract works insurance. Always ask to see proof of insurance before work begins to ensure you’re fully covered.

Can groundworkers work during bad weather?

Light rain usually won’t stop most groundwork, but heavy rain, snow, or freezing conditions can cause delays. Tasks like laying concrete, installing drainage, or site levelling rely on stable ground and dry conditions. If the weather makes the site unsafe or unsuitable, your contractor will likely pause work and reschedule for better conditions.
