Groundwork Contractors in Bedford |
The Importance of Site Enabling Works

As specialists in site preparation, the groundwork contractors at LS Connell Ltd know how important this stage is to the overall success of construction projects. However, if you are new to the industry or have not had many dealings with site enabling works and groundworks, you may wonder why these services are crucial. Below, we outline the benefits of our services, which include:

Based in Milton Keynes, LS Connell is available for work in all the surrounding areas, including Bedford. We cover everything from drainage planning and site surveys to retaining structures and pumping stations.

Removal of Obstructions and Hazards

Preparing for construction involves site clearance – the removal of all debris, vegetation and anything else that could hinder groundworks and building work. As well as ensuring work can proceed on schedule, with no delays caused by a messy site, our groundwork contractors’ clearance service enhances safety for all workers by removing potential hazards.

In addition, site clearance results in greater ease of access for plant and materials. This makes it much easier and quicker to complete groundworks and drainage installation.

Proper Base for Proposed Structures

Site enabling works and groundworks ensure the most suitable base for your project in Bedford. Enabling works help determine the right methods for services such as bulk excavation, as well as designs for things like foundations and foul drainage installations. In turn, this ensures the long-lasting stability of structures and installations.

Appropriate groundworks add to this by providing the correct support and subsurface conditions.

Damage Reduction

A further benefit of professional site preparation is that it prevents unnecessary damage and subsequent costs. This includes damage to utilities and neighbouring properties and worker injury.

Our groundwork contractors prevent damage and injury in numerous ways, such as by identifying underground utilities and removing underground obstructions. Our site enabling works also include archaeological and heritage investigations and surveys to ensure works do not affect the foundations of nearby structures.

Land Grading and Site Longevity

Site preparation from LS Connell Ltd includes ensuring the ground is the correct height for your project, with a level base or specified slope. We achieve this through efficient bulk excavation services, reusing as many materials as possible to reduce costs and waste.

Furthermore, our team helps ensure the long-term viability of sites and structures in Bedford. Key aspects of this are surface water and foul drainage installations.
