Highlights

"We are really happy with the work completed so far by Grounddown Construction. I say so far because we have decided to have them back in the summer to complete more jobs for us as they have given us such a trusting, reliable and professional service. To date, they have installed a compelling, long-lasting solution to what once was our worn, cracked drive which was affecting both curb appeal and property value. They've laid resin - designed to enhance both the appearance and functionality of our property. It is durable, stylish, and low maintenance which suits our busy lifestyles perfectly. Alick has been honest, trustworthy and passionate about providing a top quality job - We couldn't be happier as its true value for money - Highly recommend!"

"I can not be more complementary about Alicks team and recommend them highly enough. They've transformed my patio and installed some new fencing to secure our house as we are parallel to a alley way and it always felt very exposed. Alick has shown professionalism through the process, his team have been punctual, tidy, respectful and are incredibily skilled in the work they produce. I understand the've all worked for Alick for a number of years and as a customer I've really appreciated Alick building a team of workers he trusts and who show great craftsmanship. Great quality for money!"

"I recently hired Alick and his team from Grounddown Construction for a block paving project, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their work. From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and highly skilled. The attention to detail in the paving was outstanding, with clean lines and a perfectly level finish. They used high-quality materials, ensuring durability and a fantastic appearance. The team also kept the site tidy throughout the process, showing real respect for my property. Communication was excellent, Alick kept me updated at every stage and were happy to answer any questions I had. The project was completed on time and within budget, which is always a huge plus. If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced company for block paving, I highly recommend Grounddown Construction. Their workmanship is top-notch, and they truly take pride in delivering excellent results."

My neighbour recommended Alick to me after his company did their patio and how right she was to do so! Alick installed fencing and an electric gate at my property, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final installation, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly skilled. We are now having them back to do OUR patio too. Thanks Alick.

I recently had a resin driveway installed and couldn’t be happier with the results. The team was professional, hardworking, and paid great attention to detail throughout the entire process. What really stood out was how considerate they were of my neighbours—keeping noise and disruption to a minimum and ensuring the area was left clean and tidy each day. From start to finish, the communication was clear and friendly, and the quality of workmanship speaks for itself. I would highly recommend Alick and his team to anyone looking for a reliable and respectful company to transform their garden or driveway.

Considering I've had many tradesman come in to work in my home over the past two years I felt alick and team really did go above and beyond in terms of professionalism and quality of work. Alick gave a detailed quotation that outlined everything I wanted so there was no hidden/unexpected costs at the end of the job. I wanted a low maintenance garden patio and thats what alick and team have installed. Good job lads, thank you!

Outstanding service provided from Alick's team. I was really impressed with his attention to detail throughout the entire process. From his initial consultation - samples shown - quotation to installing my driveway. I went for a resin bound driveway with a porcelain rear patio. It is exactly what I asked for, low maintenance, well installed, antislip and hard wearing. The team are trustworthy, punctual, tidy and very hardworking. I truly recommend their services.

Grounddown Construction Ltd has completed two jobs for my family across 5 years. My parents had a driveway installed first and when I moved out it was always my intention to use them again - which has absolutely paid off. Finding a team with such a great reputation, passion for their high stand work and a family run business I didn't want to explore any other options! It came as no surpprise there was a waiting list for them - I was happy to join the queue of 4 weeks. Alick was so transparent, had a very clear line of communication with no hidden costs. The guys working were trustworthy, polite and mindful of noise for my partner who works from home. I understand the years of experience they have gained have earned them the reputation that stands today. Please use Grounddown Construction Ltd if you are looking for quality, efficiency and trustworthy teams!

Rob5.0 / 5

Alick was really helpful all the way through from the initial quote right through to the end of the work. He advised really well on what would work and took on board what I wanted in regard to the finish. There were a couple of small issues that came to light when the old drive / path were dug up but Alick proactively sorted those with the minimum of fuss and explained the extra work to fix the issues really well. The Grounddown Construction team were extremely professional courteous all the time they were onsite and did a great job The new resin drive and path look amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Grounddown construction to anybody looking for a quality company. In short great service, great communication and a great result.

Matt Rouse5.0 / 5

Alick and his team were great! Initial impressions of Alick were very positive and had competitive pricing. Started on the day he promised and him and his team worked hard over a couple of days to get the base laid. Would have absolutely no issues using the team again for other work and recommending them to others.

Martin Hunton5.0 / 5

The team is fantastic. Alick’s communication was excellent, kept it simple and was very impressed how he answered all our questions. Job days had to be changed due to weather but kept us informed and was very helpful. They had to carry tones of concrete throw the house took them almost 10 hours and they even cleaned up at the end of the day. Work carried out was clearly to an excellent standard and could see that Alick is a perfectionist. The entire team are courteous polite and totally trustworthy. They hadn’t even finished and we was talking about the next job. We will be recommending them to friends and family as their work is outstanding. Very very happy. Look forward to working with them again in the near future. Thanks again.

Before you hire an architect

Only someone on the Architects Registration Board (ARB) register may legally call themselves an 'architect' in the UK — ask for their ARB number and check it free at arb.org.uk. An 'architectural designer' or 'technologist' is a different, unregistered role (often capable, but not the same protection).
Agree how they charge before any work starts — a percentage of the build cost, a fixed fee, or an hourly rate — and exactly which stages it covers (concept design, planning application, building-regulations drawings, work on site), so there are no surprises later.
Confirm what they will actually handle versus what is excluded — the planning application, the building-control drawings, and whether they will administer the builder's contract on site — and get it, and a portfolio of similar projects, in writing.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
