Groundworks Contractors in Boston
Drainage, foundations, patios and full groundworks across Boston and the surrounding area. 30+ years' experience. Free written quotes.
Boston is a historic market town in south Lincolnshire with a strong maritime heritage. The property stock includes period cottages, Victorian terraces, market buildings, and modern family homes across Kirton, Swineshead and the surrounding Fenland villages.
Boston sits on flat Fenland with a high water table and a real flood-risk history. Drainage has to be designed for the worst winter, not the dry survey day. Soakaways often need to be supplemented with French drains, sumps and pumps where ground levels make gravity drainage impossible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Boston sits on flat Fenland with a high water table and a real flood-risk history. Drainage has to be designed for the worst winter, not the dry survey day. Soakaways often need to be supplemented with French drains, sumps and pumps where ground levels make gravity drainage impossible.

Do you carry out a site assessment before quoting groundworks?
Yes, every groundworks quote starts with an on-site assessment. We check ground conditions, existing drainage runs, levels, access and any planning constraints before putting anything in writing. The assessment and quote are free.
Do you handle building regulations sign-off?
Where building control approval is required (foundations, drainage connections, retaining structures over a certain height) we coordinate with building control and provide all the documentation needed for sign-off.
Can you fix a drainage problem without digging up the whole drive?
Often, yes. We use camera surveys to locate the actual fault and only excavate where the problem is. Drain relining, localised excavation, or a new soakaway in the right place is usually far cheaper than a full replacement.
