Earthworks &
Excavation
Shaping the Landscape With Precision.
LG Groundworks delivers full-scale earthworks services, moving mountains (or just small hills) to engineer the perfect formation level for your build.
We specialize in Cut and Fill—balancing site materials to minimize expensive waste removal (muck away) and reduce imported aggregates. From site clearance in Surrey to bulk excavation in London, we operate our own fleet to ensure timelines are met.

Site Solutions
Bulk Excavation
Handling large volume earthmoving for basements, reduced level digs, and commercial foundations.
Cut & Fill
Optimizing site levels to keep soil on-site. This reduces transport costs and environmental impact.
Soil Stabilization & Remediation
We handle contaminated ground and employ stabilization techniques (lime/cement) to improve load-bearing capacity, ensuring a solid formation for your build.
Site Clearance
Installation of haul roads, piling mats, and removal of vegetation/obstructions.
01. Survey & Model
Topographical surveys analyze volumes to optimize the earthworks balance.
02. Strip & Store
Careful removal of topsoil, stored separately for final landscaping.
03. Cut & Fill
Excavating high areas and compacting material into low areas.
04. Formation
Trimming the site to the final level ready for foundations.
Common Questions
We handle the complexities of soil classification, hazardous waste, and site logistics so you don't have to.
Cut and fill is the process of moving earth from one part of a site (high ground) to another (low ground). This creates a level plateau for building while minimizing the cost of buying new soil or removing waste.
Yes. We can arrange for soil testing (WAC testing) to identify contaminants. If hazardous material is found, we coordinate its safe removal to a specialist landfill facility.
We operate our own fleet ranging from 1.5T to 20T excavators, dumpers, and rollers. Owning our plant ensures reliability and allows us to handle projects of any scale without waiting for hire availability.
