Groundworks in Keighley and nearby

Keighley's mix of stone terraces, post-war semis and hillside plots means a lot of tight rear access and sloping gardens. A compact digger with an operator used to working in small spaces gets footings, drains and garden levelling done without churning up the whole site.

We also cover Riddlesden, Utley, Long Lee, Steeton, Silsden.

Typical jobs in Keighley

  • Footings for single-storey rear extensions on terraced and semi-detached homes
  • Digging out and re-routing old clay drains on older stone properties
  • Cutting into sloping gardens for patios, steps and retaining walls
  • Clearing overgrown plots and old outbuildings ready for new work

Planning & building control

Keighley falls under City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council. Sort any approvals before the dig and we'll work from your drawings.
