Plastering- 15 Jun 2020
In fact the old cracked rendering was completely removed and a new base rendering applied. The cracks could have been patched but the problem would have come back. So not the cheapest solution but the work was very professional and to a high standard.

FAQ: Common questions about London groundwork services

What types of groundwork services are typically offered in London?

Groundworkers in London 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 London?

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 London?

Professional groundworkers working regularly in London 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.
