The sub-contractor who turns up with the digger.
Groundworks, civils, demolition, earth moving and full external landscaping packages, with our own plant and our own lads. One firm from site strip to final turf.
What we take on
Six things we do for other trades.
We cover Daventry, Northampton, Rugby, Towcester and the counties either side. Day rate or priced package, your call.
- 01
Groundworks and civils
Dig-outs, reduced levels, foundations, drainage runs, soakaways, service trenches and slab bases.
- 02
Landscaping and driveway packages
Full external works on plots and refurbs: patios, paths, drives, fencing, turf, planting. One sub-contractor, one invoice.
- 03
Earth moving and muck-away
Site strips, cut and fill, bulk excavation and disposal with our own plant.
- 04
Demolition
Garages, outbuildings, walls and hard standings taken down and cleared, with recycling of arisings where we can.
- 05
Reinstatement
Making good after utilities, extensions and site works: tarmac, block, concrete, turf and fencing.
- 06
Working to a designer's drawing
We build what garden designers draw, to the level and the millimetre, and we are used to the client walking round with the plan in hand.
Plant we operate
Our own kit, our own operators.
No waiting on hire, no operator we have never met. Tickets held for everything below.
- 360 excavators, 0.8t to 28t

The White Cottage way
From the first visit to long after the last slab.
Six steps, the same on a repointed patio as on a full garden. No surprises, no trades waiting on other trades.
- 01
Meet
A free site visit. We walk the garden with you, measure up, check access, levels and drainage, and listen.
- 02
Design
A concept of your own garden, visualised from a photo, then a scale plan for the bigger builds.
- 03
Fixed quote
Written and fixed. Materials named, sub-base depth stated. The price on the quote is the invoice.
- 04
Build
One crew and our own plant, start to finish. The base is photographed before anything covers it.
- 05
Finish
Pointing, edges, cuts and a full clean, then a walk-round with you before we call it done.
- 06
Warranty
A written workmanship guarantee and aftercare notes for your materials. We come back if anything needs attention.
Paperwork
Insured, carded, and we fill in your RAMS.
Public liability in place, CSCS cards across the crew, and we will send method statements and risk assessments before we arrive rather than after you ask.
