If you’re planning an extension, garden room or structural landscaping, the foundation is where the quality starts. We install concrete foundations across Eastfields, including near Eastfields station and along routes towards Figges Marsh. Every base is set out accurately, excavated safely, and poured to suit the load and ground conditions. You’ll get a clear scope, sensible sequencing, and workmanship designed to last.
The Eastfields area mixes Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and newer developments, and each brings different structural demands. Terraces often need careful wall footings near party walls, while 1930s homes may require deeper foundations where previous ground movement is suspected. Modern plots can involve tighter access and services to work around. We tailor strip, pad or raft foundations to the property type and the build you’re adding.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels, and an engineering-led recommendation where required. We manage excavation, reinforcement, concrete supply, and coordination with Building Control so inspections happen at the right stages. You’ll receive photo updates, clean edges, and practical advice on curing times before building continues. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, compliant work, and a finish that supports the next trade without delays.
Ground conditions around Eastfields can vary, especially near greener stretches like Lavender Park and Figges Marsh, so we assess depth, drainage and bearing capacity before we dig. Access can be tight on residential streets in SW16 and CR4, so we plan deliveries, concrete pours and parking to avoid hold-ups. We’re used to working around existing services and shared boundaries common to terraces and semis. Our approach keeps your concrete foundations in London Borough of Merton compliant, practical and build-ready.

Costs vary with depth, soil conditions, access and the foundation type. As a guide, small pad foundations for posts or a compact outbuilding often start around £600–£1,500. Strip foundations for a typical rear extension commonly fall in the £3,000–£8,000 range, while reinforced raft foundations can be £6,000–£15,000+. We’ll confirm after a site visit and any engineer input.
Most domestic foundation jobs take 2–5 working days from excavation to pour, with extra time for spoil removal and inspections. Larger extensions, deep foundations or reinforced rafts may take 1–2 weeks depending on complexity. Timescales are influenced by access for machinery, weather, concrete booking slots, and Building Control inspection availability. We programme the work so the next stage can start without unnecessary waiting.
Foundations themselves don’t usually need planning permission, but the structure they support might. Many domestic projects are permitted development, yet limits apply for size, height, proximity to boundaries and listed or conservation constraints. Regardless of planning, Building Regulations approval is typically required and foundations must be inspected by Building Control. We help you understand what applies, liaise with your inspector, and work to the approved details.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for concrete foundation installations, covering defects arising from installation errors such as incorrect set-out, inadequate reinforcement placement, or poor concrete compaction. It doesn’t cover structural movement caused by external factors beyond our control (for example, leaking drains, major tree root changes, or third-party alterations). We also keep clear records and photos to support inspections and future works.
We’ll recommend the best option based on load, ground and build type: strip foundations for walls, pad foundations for point loads, raft foundations where ground is weaker or loads are spread, and deep foundations where required. Reinforced concrete can be added to meet engineering specs, and wall footings can be widened for stability. We also plan for drainage runs, service ducts and insulation details where needed, so your build progresses smoothly.
