Groundwork Services in Harrogate

Excavated for utility trenches and laid ducting with precision. Impressed by their care and speed.

Very tidy job all round.

Groundworks were done perfectly. They handled excavation, drainage and concrete pour without delay.

Everything passed inspection first time.

We used DAB Building to handle trenching, footings and ducting for our rear extension. The communication was great — they answered all our questions and made sure we knew what to expect at each stage.

The team clearly knew what they were doing and got the whole job done with minimum disruption. The concrete finish was neat, drainage flowed properly, and the building inspector had no issues. We really appreciated how tidy and respectful they were throughout the job.

DAB came highly recommended and I can see why. Their trench work was spot on — depth, fall and fill were all done right.

They even helped solve a last-minute pipe issue. Honest lads, very reliable and hard-working.

Dan’s lads came to do groundworks for our double garage. The job involved clearing overgrowth, setting levels, trenching, ducting and pouring a slab.

What impressed me was how they dealt with unexpected soil conditions and still finished ahead of schedule. They communicated any changes clearly and kept the area tidy each day. The slab was finished beautifully, drainage worked great during the recent rains, and everything passed inspection with no snags. Will be calling them again for future work.

We had a full concrete base installed for a garden building. The surface is smooth, solid and perfectly level.

They worked around poor weather and still finished on time.

Dan and the lads turned up early and cracked on. They dug all the footings by hand because of tight access.

Still finished ahead of schedule and left everything spotless. Great team to work with from start to finish.

We used DAB to prepare a sloped site for a summerhouse. They levelled the ground, compacted the base and handled water runoff cleverly.

End result was tidy, solid and bone dry after rain. Couldn't fault their approach or attitude.

Needed footings dug for a retaining wall. The team turned up, got straight to work and finished the job fast.

The trench was square and solid. No need for adjustments. Would happily use them again.

I had DAB Building dig out and prepare foundations for my two-storey extension. From the initial consultation to the final compaction, everything was done to a very high standard.

The team worked efficiently, turned up when they said they would, and explained each stage. The inspector passed everything off without any issues, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They left the site clean and ready for the builders to begin immediately.

They completed groundwork for a new barn on our farm. It was a big job and the weather didn’t help, but they kept going and the result is rock solid.

The team were well organised and delivered exactly what we needed.

After getting several quotes for groundworks on our barn conversion, we chose DAB because they seemed the most experienced — and they definitely delivered. They handled everything from drainage to slab prep with no issues.

The work passed inspection first time, and everything was level and tidy. They even made sure the driveway was clear of mud after each visit. Everyone was polite, professional and clearly took pride in the job. Brilliant team.

This was our first big project and we didn’t know where to start. DAB talked us through it clearly, gave a detailed quote, and handled the entire groundwork phase flawlessly.

Really impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail.

I contacted DAB to do groundwork for a small development of two homes. Their team handled everything — site clearance, footings, drainage and ducting.

What stood out was how methodically they approached each stage. They arrived with the right kit, worked fast but carefully, and everything was done by the book. Their communication was excellent too. Even when weather held us up, they worked around it and kept things on track. We now have two perfect slabs ready to build on.

Site clearance was done efficiently. They turned up with all their own gear, worked through the rain and left no mess.

Followed up with drainage and base prep the next day and finished everything ahead of schedule. Great experience.
