Our versatility makes M Jaques Groundworks and Surfacing the ideal candidate both for smaller, domestic projects around our core service areas of Eastbourne, Tunbridge Wells, East Sussex and Kent, and much larger commercial tasks conducted nationwide. This may also involve working alongside other contactors on mammoth, multi-phase operations.
One area we specialise in is bulk excavations and cut and fill earthworks, which see us move massive volumes of earth to facilitate construction activity. Topsoil is stripped and the surface is levelled, with as much soil reused as possible to ensure the job is handled in an environmentally friendly manner – a priority for many of our Eastbourne, Tunbridge Wells, East Sussex and Kent clients. The M Jaques Groundworks and Surfacing team ensures to handle all associated muckaway, which we also undertake on a standalone basis. This ensures a clean, tidy site ready for handover or the next stage of development.
Alongside excavation, muckaway and filling, we deliver drainage installation, road surfacing and repair projects, and construct foundations. The former two services can be read about on the dedicated pages you’ll find on this website.
M Jaques Groundworks and Surfacing continues to invest in powerful plant machinery which helps us make short work of even the most arduous of excavations. Our team are trained to operate 1 to 10 ton diggers, and a fleet of compaction plates and whackers, single and twin drum rollers, hook loaders, tippers and tractors ensure we’ve a tool for every occasion. Each operator is registered with the Construction Plant Competence Scheme, ensuring safe usage at all times.
This equipment is absolutely essential for work such as highway excavation and footpath construction, where time is often of the essence. And in addition to using this plant ourselves, we make it available to fellow contractors around Eastbourne, Tunbridge Wells, East Sussex and Kent, at competitive rates, on flexible terms.
