How McGrath Civils can help with your East Sussex Basement Project 

As well as working with clients directly, we are more than happy to work on a collaborative basis with architects, project managers and main build contractors.  

We are regularly contacted by clients living in towns across East Sussex, including in Brighton, Hove, Eastbourne, Lewes, Winchelsea and Battle to discuss new basement projects. We often look at clients drawings and plans and meet at the site.  We also offer advice on building methods and materials, giving clients a better indication of how much they should budget for particular areas of the build. 

We offer a comprehensive basement construction service, which includes: 
  • Excavation and site clearance (If required, we can demolish existing properties on a site, before excavation commences)
  • Foundations and ground stabilisation 
  • Tunneling for drainage systems, water, electricity and cabling
  • Basement construction
Every basement is different, with each project having its own challenges to overcome. This is why it is so important to instruct a basement contractor who has the necessary experience and knowledge to deliver a high standard of work.  Unfortunately we have seen many projects delayed, and some fail, due to poor workmanship and catastrophic errors, which lead to the client having to pay thousands in remedial works. We can't stress enough the importance of instructing basement contractors that know what they are doing.

Our friendly basement construction contractors will be happy to discuss your project in detail, look at your plans, speak with your architect and prepare a competitive and no obligation quote for the works.
