Preserving the Past, Building the Future in Lichfield
Lichfield is a city defined by its history, from the Cathedral Close to the Georgian streets of the city centre. Building here requires more than just a digger; it requires a groundworks partner with the sensitivity to work in conservation areas and the technical skill to deliver modern engineering solutions that respect the historic environment. Tilsley Groundworks is that partner.
We work with architects, heritage consultants, and homeowners across Lichfield and the surrounding villages of Whittington and Shenstone to deliver high-specification groundworks. Whether you are excavating a basement for a new luxury home or carefully underpinning a listed building, we bring the same level of care and precision. Our owned fleet of compact, low-vibration machinery allows us to work in tight, sensitive locations without causing damage to adjacent structures.
Luxury Residential Foundations & Basements
Lichfield’s property market is driven by high-value, bespoke homes. Tilsley Groundworks specialises in the complex substructures required for these premium developments.
- Basement Excavation: We are experienced in constructing reinforced concrete basements and swimming pools, managing the temporary propping and waterproofing (Type A, B, and C systems) required to keep your new space dry.
- Underpinning: For period properties with shallow foundations, we provide safe, structural underpinning to stabilize the building or lower floor levels, increasing ceiling height without altering the external façade.
- Complex Foundations: On sloping sites in areas like Hammerwich, we design and install stepped foundations and retaining walls that work with the landscape, not against it.
Heritage Paving & Hard Landscaping
The finish is everything in Lichfield. We install high-quality hard landscaping that complements the local vernacular. We are experts in laying natural stone, reclaimed York stone, and traditional block paving for driveways and courtyards.
- Sub-Base Quality: We understand that natural stone is brittle. We install a fully engineered concrete or MOT Type 1 sub-base to prevent differential settlement, ensuring your expensive paving never cracks or moves.
- Drainage Integration: We install discreet linear drainage channels and permeable paving systems that comply with SuDS regulations, managing surface water without ruining the aesthetic of your heritage property.
