This business offers a broad range of groundwork services to the construction industry including foundation work, drainage, ponds, lakes and mud clearance, which are all regular projects. The business also specialises in barn conversions.
Established in 1994, this business has built up a strong reputation throughout the region. There is a real opportunity to build upon this reputation and genuine and demonstrable scope for substantial growth of the business.
Regular contract work is undertaken throughout Essex, Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and the outskirts of London.
A full construction service is provided for clients and the business has become particularly sought after and well renowned for the groundwork services that is provides.
The business benefits from strong cash flow and new contracts are won on a very regular basis. A reliable and strong team of contractors have worked with the business for long periods of time.
