What information helps when pricing excavation and groundworks?

The details that help form a clear view of scope, access and the work involved.

Clear information helps turn an initial enquiry into a practical scope. Location, access, drawings, photographs, anticipated programme and a simple outline of the work all help when discussing excavation and groundworks.

Describe the work and the site

A short description of the intended groundworks, the project location and the current site condition gives the conversation a useful starting point. Include any particular outcomes, interfaces or known restrictions where possible.

Share what is available

Drawings, levels, site photographs and an outline programme can all add context. They do not need to be final, but they help identify assumptions and the practical information that may still be needed.
