ArcLine Groundworks is the specialist groundworks division of ArcLine Group. We handle everything from driveways and drop kerbs to drainage systems and foundations — covering Staffordshire and Cheshire.
We see a lot of groundwork that's been done badly — sinking driveways, blocked drainage, crumbling kerbs, patios laid on sand. That's exactly why we focus on doing things properly from the start. Full excavation, compacted sub-bases, proper falls and quality materials. It costs the same to do it right as it does to do it wrong — we just take the time to do it right.
Whether you need a new block-paved driveway, a council-approved drop kerb, a drainage solution for a waterlogged garden or foundations for an extension, we handle the whole project from start to finish. One team, one point of contact, done properly.
Every project starts with proper preparation and finishes with lasting quality.
Council-approved drop kerb installations to create safe, legal vehicle access to your property. We handle the full process — application support, excavation, kerb laying and reinstatement.
Block paving, tarmac, resin-bound and natural stone driveways — properly excavated, sub-based and laid to last. No sinking, no shifting, no shortcuts.
Land drainage, surface water systems, soakaways and foul drainage installations. We solve water problems at their source and build systems that handle the worst weather.
Indian sandstone, porcelain, block paving and natural stone patios — laid on solid foundations with proper drainage. Built to look good and last for years.
Strip foundations, trench-fill and raft foundations for extensions, garages and new builds. Excavated, reinforced and poured to structural engineer specifications.
Herringbone, stretcher bond and basket-weave patterns in a range of colours and finishes. Laid on compacted sub-base with proper edge restraints for a lasting finish.
We don't just lay the surface — we build what goes underneath it.
We don't skim on preparation. Every driveway, patio and path gets a full excavation and compacted MOT sub-base — it's what stops your groundwork sinking or shifting.
We handle the paperwork, the excavation and the reinstatement to highway specification. Fully compliant, no hassle.
We solve water problems at the source — soakaways, channel drains, inspection chambers — built to handle heavy rain without failure.
Detailed written quotes with no hidden costs. What we quote is what you pay.
Over 50 independently verified reviews. Real feedback from real customers across Staffordshire and Cheshire.
Every groundworks project is covered by comprehensive insurance and our workmanship guarantee.
