Need Groundworks in Coggeshall?
Groundworks in Coggeshall Operating Across Essex
Build your Coggeshall project on solid ground
Ever wonder why some driveways crack or new extensions start to shift after just a few years? It’s usually because of what’s happening underneath. In Coggeshall, we’re often dealing with that heavy Essex clay which can be a real headache if you don’t prep the ground properly. At Foster and Sons Landscaping, we treat the 'invisible' part of your build as the most important. Whether you’re a homeowner planning a kitchen extension or a developer starting a fresh site in Braintree, our team ensures the foundations are spot on. We bring decades of local experience and £5 million in public liability insurance to every job, so you know your property is in safe hands from the very first dig.
Why Choose Us?
Start fresh with professional site clearance
Before the first brick is laid or the first bag of cement is poured, you need a clean slate. We handle the messy stuff so you don't have to. Our site strip service removes all that unwanted vegetation and topsoil, getting the area down to the right levels. And because we’re licensed waste carriers, our 'muckaway' service means all that spoil is cleared off-site quickly and legally. No piles of dirt sitting in your way for weeks—just a tidy, ready-to-go workspace that’s ready for the next phase of construction.

Who We Are
Foundations and footings that never budge
Digging footings is more than just making a hole in the ground; it’s about structural integrity. Depending on your project and what the local building inspectors require, we can handle everything from standard strip foundations to deep trench-fills or even raft foundations. We’re experts at getting the 'oversite' concrete slab perfectly level and ensuring the damp-proof course is exactly where it needs to be. We use our own modern plant machinery and experienced operators, so the digging is precise and the concrete pour is smooth, providing the perfect start for your walls or garden brickwork.

Keep your garden dry with smart drainage
If you’ve lived in Essex for a while, you know how puddles can linger on a rainy day. Poor drainage can ruin a beautiful new porcelain patio or turn a turfed lawn into a swamp. We install comprehensive drainage systems, including soakaways and attenuation tanks, to manage surface water properly. We make sure your new tarmac driveway or block paving meets all the modern SuDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems) regulations, keeping the water flowing where it should and away from your home’s walls.

01268 261424Expert help for domestic and commercial builds
We’re just as comfortable working in a tight backyard in Coggeshall as we are on a large-scale commercial car park. For our domestic clients, we often provide the groundworks needed for garden design or prepare the sub-base for resin bound surfacing. For commercial developers, we offer civil engineering support, site preparation, and reinforced concrete work. Whatever the scale, we use MOT Type 1 aggregate for a rock-solid sub-base that won’t sink or shift over time, ensuring your investment lasts for decades.
