Groundworks
The infrastructure beneath every finished environment.
Groundworks underpin everything Rockwood delivers. From excavation and drainage to foundations and sub-bases, our groundworks capability prepares sites for construction, landscaping and external improvement works.
Delivering groundworks in-house means levels, drainage and preparation are coordinated with the finished works from day one.

Groundworks coordinated with the finished works
When groundworks and finishing works are delivered by separate contractors, details get lost between them. Rockwood surveys, designs and delivers both - so levels, falls, drainage and ducting are planned around the surface, structure or landscape they support.
Questions about groundworks
Do you provide groundworks as a standalone service?+
Yes. Groundworks can be delivered as a standalone package or as part of a wider external works contract.
