A reliable, professional groundwork contractor built on relationships, repeat work, and a standard that doesn't slip.
We handle everything below the DPC — and a fair amount above it — for residential and commercial clients across Hampshire.
AJH Groundworks LTD has built up a reputation as a reliable, professional contractor dedicated to offering the very best in service to every customer. From small residential jobs to larger commercial projects, we work closely with clients and building contractors to make sure every job is finished on time and within the agreed budget.
We provide complete project management and a full turnkey service, taking the headache out of groundwork packages so the rest of the build can move. Director Alastair Heathcote leads every project from initial engagement through to completion — strategic planning, contract negotiation, budget control, the lot.
