Overview
Our team was tasked with carrying out groundworks for the demolition of part of an existing double garage while maintaining the rear retaining wall. The project required us to excavate the existing ground down to floor level, construct a new retaining wall that forms the rear of the property, and provide the necessary foundations, drainage, and block and beam support.
Scope of Work
To complete the project, we assessed the site and developed a detailed plan for excavation and demolition. We used heavy machinery to carefully remove the unwanted portions of the garage while maintaining the existing retaining wall. Once the demolition was complete, we constructed a new retaining wall using high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship. We also provided comprehensive drainage solutions, including connecting the sewer line and installing necessary drainage systems. The site was thoroughly prepared for the block and beam support, and the installation was completed to the highest standard. Finally, we provided landscaping services to enhance the overall aesthetic of the property, including laying new turf, planting trees and shrubs, and ensuring that the site was clean and tidy upon completion.
