Thoughtful · Groundworks and drainage · Fowey and south Cornwall
Retaining walls, drainage and treatment plants on steep plots.
Before anything can be built on a slope, the ground has to be held back and the water dealt with. We run groundworks from the first cut to the finished wall, on sites a lorry can't easily reach.

Retaining walls, a treatment plant and the drainage for a steep plot.
This is the ground the Treehouse stands on. Nothing could be built until the bank was held back and the drainage was sorted. We ran the job from start to finish, working on a slope with a mini digger and getting concrete to places a lorry couldn't reach easily.
We built tiered gabion walls to retain the bank, shuttered and poured a reinforced concrete wall, set precast chamber rings, and installed a sewage treatment plant on a concrete base with the pipe runs to and from it.
New treatment plants need Building Regulations approval and have to meet the general binding rules for small sewage discharges. Both are planned and priced in from the start, not discovered halfway through.
