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.
Before quoting groundworks in Wednesfield we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. Many homes in Wednesfield have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Typical projects we can quote for in Wednesfield include setting a channel drain across a garage entrance, digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base and fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive. More about excavation and sub-base.

Weather and working days
The West Midlands is close to the UK average for rainfall, and much of the region sits on clay that holds water after wet spells. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Wednesfield jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
