Every good build starts below ground. GRW Homes is a groundworks-led building company in Wisbech, so the part most firms subcontract is our speciality: setting out, digging, footings, drainage, sub-bases and concrete.
We take on groundworks for extensions, new builds, garages, outbuildings, driveways and patios, plus commercial site work for contractors. You deal with one team from the first dig to the finished surface, so there is no gap between the groundworker leaving and the builder arriving.
Fenland ground needs care. Silt, clay and peat move differently, the water table sits high for much of the year and nearby trees change what the ground does in a dry summer. We plan the dig, the foundation and the drainage around what is actually under your site.
Groundworks: solid starts. Get the ground right and everything built on top of it lasts.
