Groundwork Services in York

Full ground prep, including kerbs and slab base for a double garage. They coordinated with the builders, worked fast, and the finish was excellent.

Can’t fault the attitude or workmanship. Left the whole area clean, level and completely ready to build on.

We had ground that kept pooling and staying boggy. These guys reworked the slope, installed proper drainage and gave us a solid, dry plot.

No water build-up at all now. Job was finished ahead of time and within budget.

DAB Building took on a difficult project involving drainage, excavation, and reinforced slab prep for our commercial unit. Their crew handled everything themselves, coordinated deliveries, and kept the site in great condition throughout.

They even came back to check levels before concrete was poured, making sure everything would be perfect. The final result was flawless, with absolutely no issues on inspection. It’s the kind of service that gives you confidence the rest of the build will go smoothly.

We needed a concrete base and they got it poured and finished in one day. Looks solid and clean.

Drainage was done properly with no mess. Pipes installed neatly and working perfectly since.

Really good team with proper skills and the right kit. Very professional outfit.

We needed complicated groundworks including drainage, kerbing and slab prep for a garage with office above. The job involved multiple levels and tricky angles but the lads handled it all with confidence.

They laid the sub-base for our tarmac drive. Compacted properly and level across the whole area.

It’s held up brilliantly since.

I had DAB Building dig out and prepare foundations for my two-storey extension. From the initial consultation to the final compaction, everything was done to a very high standard.

The team worked efficiently, turned up when they said they would, and explained each stage. The inspector passed everything off without any issues, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They left the site clean and ready for the builders to begin immediately.

Dan and the team tackled a challenging job with precision. We needed stepped foundations due to a slope and they got it bang on.

Everything was measured carefully and passed inspection first time. Professional crew who worked cleanly and quickly.

Had to dig out a plot that had poor access and loads of roots and rubble. They turned up early, worked hard, and made no excuses.

Cleared the lot, prepped it solidly, and got it finished quicker than we expected.

For our new build project, the DAB team managed all the groundwork — trenching, ducting, footings, and drainage. They had their own machinery and knew exactly what they were doing.

They were professional, kept the site safe and tidy, and worked alongside our structural engineer to make sure everything was perfect. The whole process was smooth, efficient and delivered exactly as promised. It’s not often a groundwork crew impresses me this much.

Dan and the team tackled a big dig-out on our sloping plot. They levelled everything off properly, set the drainage just right, and left the whole base ready for slab work.

It was impressive watching them work — they were calm, precise and really efficient even when the weather turned rough. It’s rare to find groundworkers this reliable and communicative. Really appreciated the updates and the fact that everything was done on time and to spec.
