Building Foundations

Landscape reclamation is the process of restoring land that has been degraded or underused, often due to industrial, agricultural, or neglectful practices. The goal is to improve soil quality, manage erosion, eliminate invasive species, and enhance biodiversity, making the land more suitable for future use, whether for agriculture, construction, or recreational purposes.

The duration of a landscape reclamation project depends on the size and complexity of the land, as well as the specific reclamation services required. Smaller projects may take a few weeks, while larger and more intricate projects can take several months. Our team at GS Earthworks provides an estimated timeline at the start of the project and ensures regular updates throughout the process.

The cost of landscape reclamation varies based on several factors, including the size of the land, the level of degradation, and the type of services required. GS Earthworks offers competitive pricing, and we provide a detailed, no-obligation quote after assessing your specific needs. Contact us for a personalised consultation and estimate.

Yes, landscape reclamation is highly environmentally beneficial. It helps restore ecosystems, supports biodiversity, and improves soil quality. Our reclamation practices focus on sustainability, ensuring that the reclaimed land is healthier and more productive. We work to minimise the environmental impact of our activities and promote long-term ecological balance.

If your foundation shows signs of cracks, settlement, or water ingress, it's essential to have it assessed by a professional. GS Earthworks can conduct an in-depth evaluation to determine whether repairs or reinforcements, such as underpinning or drainage improvements, are necessary to maintain the integrity of your structure.

The duration of your foundation project depends on factors such as the type of foundation, site conditions, and project complexity. Typically, foundation excavation and pouring can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks. We provide a detailed timeline during the planning phase to ensure you are kept informed throughout the process.

We are experts in ground stabilisation techniques such as soil compaction, geo-textile reinforcement, and lime cement stabilisation. These methods improve the load-bearing capacity and durability of your foundation, ensuring stability even in challenging soil conditions.

Piling services involve driving or drilling deep foundation elements into the ground to support a structure. Piling is particularly necessary for sites with weak or compressible soils. We offer various types of piling solutions, including bored piles, driven piles, and mini-piles, depending on your project’s requirements.
