Request a quoteAbout Staff4dshire Groundworks & UtilitiesGood groundworks are invisible once a build is finished, but everything above depends on them. In Stafford, Weeping Cross, Baswich, Walton-on-the-Hill, Doxey and Milford, we handle site clearance, muck shifting, foundations, concrete, drainage and service trenches as one package.
Stafford is the county town, with a historic core around the Ancient High House and Greengate Street, streets of Victorian terraces off the Lichfield and Newport Roads, and larger estates and new developments at Wildwood, Baswich and Burleyfields.
Around Stafford we work on both town-centre infill sites and greenfield plots on the edge of town, each with very different access and spoil challenges. Growth at Burleyfields and on the edges of Stafford keeps demand high for foundations, drainage connections and new driveways, and parts of the town near the River Sow need flood-aware design.
For Stafford (ST16, ST17 and ST18), planning applications are handled by Stafford Borough Council, and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs by Staffordshire County Council. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is around ten miles from Rugeley along the A513 and A51.
We work to the engineer's design and building control requirements, keep spoil and deliveries organised, and leave the site safe and tidy at the end of each day.
We start with the drawings, the site investigation (if there is one) and a walk round the site to look at access, levels, spoil volumes and existing services. That lets us plan the dig, the muck away and the concrete pours in the right order and give you a clear programme.

📍 Nick, Stafford
We surveyed the roof on Nick's garden room in Stafford and found leaks from the previous installer's work. We then carried out targeted repairs to the EPDM roof, the rooflight, the parapet and the abutments to stop the water getting in.
Growth at Burleyfields and on the edges of Stafford keeps demand high for foundations, drainage connections and new driveways, and parts of the town near the River Sow need flood-aware design. We check the site and any available records before we price the work.
We dig the trenches and lay ducting for new electric, water and gas supplies and work alongside the network operators. We are currently working towards NERS, WIRS and GIRS accreditation.
Typically site clearance, excavation, muck away, foundations, concrete slabs, drainage and service trenches, and sometimes external works like paving and kerbs.
Groundworks are part of the overall project, so it depends on what you are building. Check with Stafford Borough Council or ask us and we will point you in the right direction.
