Securing & Enabling Your Site

Site preparation is the critical phase that transforms a plot of land into a workable construction environment. Neglecting this stage can lead to costly delays and safety hazards later in the build. LG Groundworks provides comprehensive enabling works, ensuring your site is secure, accessible, and compliant with all HSE regulations before the main contractors arrive.

From the installation of perimeter hoarding and security fencing to the creation of temporary haul roads for heavy plant access, we manage the logistics of setting up your site. We also handle the safe disconnection of existing services and the clearance of surface obstacles.

Mobilization

Site Setup Workflow

Turning a plot of land into a functional workspace.

01

Secure

Installation of perimeter hoarding or Heras fencing to secure the site boundaries and prevent unauthorized access.

02

Clear

Removal of surface vegetation, shrubs, and light debris to expose the ground level (reduced level dig).

03

Access

Construction of temporary haul roads and vehicle tracking pads to prevent mud tracking onto public highways.

04

Welfare

Preparation of bases for site cabins and connection of temporary power, water, and waste facilities.

Common Questions

Yes. We install root protection areas (RPAs) and protective fencing around trees with TPOs to ensure they are not damaged by heavy machinery or soil compaction during the works.

Site preparation is the initial surface clearance and setup (fencing, roads, welfare). Earthworks happen afterwards and involve the bulk movement of soil to change ground levels for foundations.

We coordinate with utility providers to safely disconnect gas, electricity, and water supplies before any excavation or demolition work begins to ensure site safety.
