Response within 24 hours
From King Street refurbishments to riverside upgrades near Hammersmith Bridge, solid groundworks are the difference between a build that lasts and one that cracks. Fine Landscaping delivers engineered footings and foundations for garden structures, walls and small extensions across W6. We carry out careful excavation, set-out and concrete placement with the right reinforcement. Every job is planned to suit access, neighbours and the realities of busy Hammersmith streets.
Hammersmith homes range from Victorian terraces and mansion flats to modern riverside developments, each with different load paths and constraints. Period properties often need thoughtful strip footings to support new walls without disturbing existing fabric. Mansion blocks can bring tight access and strict management rules, so deliveries and spoil removal must be organised precisely. We tailor designs and sequencing so your project progresses smoothly, whether you’re near Brook Green or bordering Chiswick.
Our process starts with a site visit, levels and ground assessment, then a clear method statement for excavation, reinforcement and concrete. We coordinate with Building Control and, where needed, structural engineering details for pier footings or deeper foundations. You’ll get tidy working practices, reliable scheduling and clear updates from start to finish. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, compliant builds and a team that respects your property and neighbours.
The footings & foundations Hammersmith area often involves restricted access, controlled parking and tight working windows near major routes. We plan deliveries, waste removal and concrete pours to suit W6 streets and local site constraints. Ground conditions can vary close to the Thames, so we adapt depth, reinforcement and drainage details accordingly. We also liaise with the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham requirements and Building Control expectations to keep your project compliant.

Costs vary with depth, access, spoil removal and the footing type (strip, wall or pier). As a guide in W6, small foundation works for garden walls can start around £1,200–£3,000, while larger excavations and concrete for extensions or substantial structures are often £4,000–£12,000+. Engineering design, reinforcement schedules and difficult access near busy roads can increase the budget.
Most jobs take 2–7 working days from excavation to poured concrete, depending on size and complexity. A simple strip footing for a small wall may be completed in a couple of days, while multiple pier footings or deeper excavations can take a week or more. Timescales are affected by access in Hammersmith, waste collection, inspection bookings and curing time before building continues.
Footings and foundations themselves usually fall under Building Regulations rather than planning permission, especially for repairs or small garden structures. However, if the work forms part of an extension, new outbuilding, boundary wall or structural alteration, planning rules and permitted development limits may apply. We help you check constraints such as conservation areas, party wall matters and Building Control inspections in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for footings and foundations, covering defects caused by installation issues such as incorrect levels, inadequate compaction, or poor concrete placement. The warranty applies when the foundations are used as specified and the build follows the agreed design and engineering details. We also keep clear records of reinforcement, concrete specification and inspection points for peace of mind.
We install wall footings, strip footings and pier footings depending on loads, layout and ground conditions. Options include different concrete strengths, reinforced cages or mesh, and stepped foundations for sloping sites. Where required, we can incorporate drainage considerations and formation layers to support the structure above. We’ll recommend the most practical solution after assessing access, soil behaviour and the engineer’s requirements.
