Project Case Studies
A selection of the groundworks and civil engineering projects Hardrock Groundworks has completed in Surrey, Hampshire, London and surrounding area.
Project Case Study:
Len House, Maidstone
Len House, crucial in Maidstone's redevelopment, converts the former Peugeot UK Headquarters into residential and commercial areas. Adding two levels and redesigning the layout, the project includes a new drainage system.
Hardrock Groundworks managed concrete cutting, drainage installation, and reinstatement, servicing 80 flats and commercial units. Overcoming challenges like height limits and thick slabs, Hardrock Groundworks ensured efficient operations despite site constraints.
Project Case Study:
Stratton Park, Basingstoke
Hardrock Groundworks played a pivotal role in B&NHMRS's new Headquarters at Stratton Park. By optimizing the groundworks within budgetary constraints and careful planning due to its location in a busy public park area, our strategic approach minimized disruption by adhering to strict working hours, utilizing noise-reduction measures, and scheduling operations around local events.
The result? A seamlessly executed project, reflecting Hardrock's commitment to excellence and community harmony.
Project Case Study:
Glebe Farm, NW London
This project for Car Giant faced a tight deadline, aiming to transform an old farmyard into a site with three commercial buildings, a 100m reinforced concrete roadway, and 4000msq of hardstanding in just 8 weeks.
Hardrock Groundworks rose to the challenge, delivering on all requirements, including pouring slabs within existing buildings. Innovative problem-solving ensured successful completion, satisfying the client's expectations within the constrained timeframe.

Robin Gilchrist
Chairman - B&NHMRS
" I would 100% work with Jamie again. Very reliable groundworks contractor and willing to assist with resolving issues that came up on site. Dealing with costs was very transparent and a pleasure to work through. Communication throughout the job was all very good, both in person and on emails. There were numerous issues with drawing discrepancies, through no fault of their own, but the Hardrock team worked around these quickly and efficiently. "
James Funnell
Senior Quantity Surveyor - Bauvill
" We had a short window of time on our groundworks and resurfacing project. I contacted Jamie and within days he produced a thorough design that met our needs and our timeline. The ground was prepped and resurfaced in record time, which meant we were able to start earning money from the new yard almost immediately. Jamie is an expert groundworker and I'd gladly work with him again. "
Hugh Blandy
Owner - Dart Motor Storage
" We had a failed retaining wall which turned into a rather complex project, and Jamie was outstanding from day one. He gave us complete confidence with his cautious and professional, yet friendly approach, making sure everything was planned thoroughly before work began. It was clear immediately that he knew exactly what he was doing which gave us real peace of mind. We're absolutely delighted with the result and couldn't recommend Hardrock Groundworks highly enough. If you need groundworks done and want complete peace of mind, look no further. "

" We recently had Jamie and the team at Hardrock Groundworks lay paving slabs and concrete next to our community centre, and they did a fantastic job! They were incredibly thorough from start to finish. Jamie was especially helpful, always happy to talk things through, explain what was happening, and problem-solve whenever something came up. Highly recommend them if you're looking for someone reliable, skilled, and easy to work with! "
