What excavation and sub-base involves
Excavation and sub-base work is the groundwork under a resin surface: digging out the old drive and soft ground, removing the spoil, and building up compacted layers of crushed stone and a binder course that will carry cars without moving.
Groundwork prices in Lytham St Annes depend on what is found below the surface, so the survey looks closely at ground conditions, access and drainage. Lytham St Annes mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Across Lancashire, the projects we price include digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base, replacing failed edges that have started to crumble and preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb. More about excavation and sub-base.

General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. Laying days in Lytham St Annes are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
