TESTIMONIALS
Driveway construction
“Really impressed with Ben and his team from when we first met Ben when he came to quote right through to completion of works. A very hard working team even in the wet and windy weather. We were kept up to date with progress throughout the week. We found Jack and the guys to be very polite, punctual and tidy. We would use them again without hesitation and would recommend them to anyone.”

Complete new driveway and gates
“Would highly recommend BVMH. They turned up on time and when they said they would. Were hard working, tidy and pleasant to deal with and kept us informed throughout the week with what they were doing. We were so impressed we asked them to supply and fit new gates which again were done with expertise.”

Site clearance, dig footings and build foundations to dpc level, lay concrete slab and install all drains and soak away.
“Ben and his team were a pleasure to deal with, I have worked in the building industry for over 30 years and know how hard it can be to find a good reliable company and I have to say that BVMH Groundworks is by far the most professional team I have worked with. Nothing was too much trouble, everything was started on time and finished before schedule, If you are looking for an honest, polite and reliable ground works company with no hidden costs then I would highly recommend BVMH.”

New patio / pathway laid.
“Extremely pleased with our new patio - the quality of workmanship and finish is excellent. Ben and his team worked non stop and they were courteous and tidy. We have previously used BVMH for ground works for our extension, but this was the first time for paving, and we have not been disappointed! Can highly recommend.”
Customer in Bognor Regis - 17 August 2018
Removed grass, laid a large circular patio design, fitted some partitioning fencing and laid artificial grass.
“Amazing, I have a wonderful garden. Thank you Ben, Jack and the crew. Brilliant workers with attention to detail. Very hard working, punctual, tidy and very knowledgeable. I would totally recommend this team.”
Customer in Worthing - 7 August 2018
Ben and his team completed the concrete foundations for a 25 square meter side and rear single-story extension. Blockwork up to DC level, laid all drainage for new kitchen and utility areas, inspection chamber and rodding points. Installed a 6-crate soakaway and completed the block and beam oversite ready for brickwork.
“I can honestly say that Ben and his team work constantly and without fuss. Their work is completed to a high standard and on time. Ben explains everything to you before he starts, and throughout the construction I felt confident to leave him and his team to get on with their work. Ben and his team arrive on time and stay until they finish their work target for the day. They are all polite and friendly guys and extremely hard working. I cannot recommend this company highly enough. They are a credit to their profession.”

Moving main drain and foundations for side and rear extension.
“Very impressed with Ben and his team from his initial visit to quote right through to completion of works. A very hard working team even in very hot weather. We were kept updated with progress throughout and they completed the works ahead of schedule despite changes having to be made part way through. We found all of Bens team to be very polite and accommodating throughout the works - helped along with some coffee and cakes! We would use them again without hesitation and would be recommend them to anyone.”
Customer in Worthing - 9 July 2018
Demolition, foundation and floor slab for new extension.
“Of all the quotes received, Ben was clearly the most switch on contractor and is also competitive and a great communicator. He said it would take two weeks but completed the work in 6 days (weather helped I am sure). I really I cannot find fault with the work and his team. We asked for additional drainage works which were completely quickly and with liaison with the building control officer, and the garden was left far tidier then I was expecting despite the heavy machinery used. I would not hesitate to recommend them.”
Customer in Horsham - 25 June 2018
Groundwork and footings.
“Could not fault the workmanship, level of tidiness materials used or attitude of staff. Price was agreed and kept to. Excellent service.”
Customer in Littlehampton - 14 June 2018
New soakaways.
“Two new soakaways and pipwork completed in just one day, we made changes on the day which Ben was able to deal with, the team worked extremely hard throughout the day and were very friendly and polite. We will use again and recommend to others.”

The original focus of our company was the building and construction industry, where we mastered complex tasks such as foundation installations, property extensions, drainage preparation and much more.
