Groundworks Specialists Serving Herefordshire and Shropshire

Every build, whether it’s a new agricultural shed or a full commercial development, starts with the ground beneath it – and if that stage is rushed or done poorly, everything built afterwards inherits the problem. BJB Contractors Ltd handles that groundwork stage across Hereford, Herefordshire and Shropshire, working with farms, developers, landowners and commercial clients who need it done properly the first time. Twenty years of hands-on experience and NRSWA accreditation back up everything we do, from breaking ground through to laying a finished base, and we’ve seen enough sites to know where problems typically creep in. We’re often brought in right at the start of a project, before any other trade arrives, which means getting drainage falls, ground bearing capacity and levels right from the outset rather than working around choices someone else has already made.

The Groundworks We Cover

Our groundworks service spans site clearance, excavation and earthworks, foundations and footings, drainage installation and repairs, concrete works, driveways and access roads, and ditching and land drainage. We run our own excavators, dumpers and rollers, operated by NRSWA-accredited staff, so each stage of the job – from the first dig to the final surface – is handled to the same standard rather than being passed between different subcontractors with different priorities. Because we own our plant, we can often move quickly between stages without the delays that come from waiting on hired-in machinery or a third party’s availability. We also coordinate the muck-away and material deliveries that groundworks projects need, arranging skips, aggregate and spoil removal so the site stays workable, and we keep clients updated at each stage rather than leaving them chasing for progress.

 

One Contractor, Every Stage

Preparing ground for a new agricultural building, laying drainage ahead of a development, or clearing a plot for a private project – it’s all the same practical approach from us, whatever the scale. We’ll talk you through what’s involved before we start, so there are no surprises once the digger’s on site. We’re just as happy scoping a small domestic groundworks job as pricing a multi-phase commercial development, and we’ll always give a realistic timeframe rather than an optimistic one that slips.
