Groundworks & Civil Engineering — Common Questions
What groundworks services does RCC Buildforce provide?
We deliver site clearance, excavation, earthmoving, backfilling, compaction, foundations and substructure works, along with plant-assisted groundworks support.
Do you handle both site preparation and foundation construction?
Yes, we cover the full sequence from site clearance and excavation through to foundation construction, so a project moves from raw ground to a ready substructure with one team.
What types of foundations can RCC construct?
We deliver strip, pad and raft foundations, reinforced concrete foundations, ground beams and foundation slabs, with reinforcement, formwork and waterproofing included.
Can you carry out large-scale excavation and earthmoving?
Yes, our teams undertake bulk excavation, trenching and large-scale earthmoving, with material placement, grading and compaction carried out to formation requirements.
Do you provide plant and equipment for groundworks?
Where required, groundworks and earthmoving are supported with excavators, compaction equipment and other plant, deployed alongside our site teams for efficient delivery.
Do you work directly for developers, or as a subcontractor too?
Both. We deliver groundworks and civil engineering packages directly for clients and developers, and as a specialist subcontractor within larger construction programmes.
