Foundation Installations

Foundation installations are a key part of our services. They provide the necessary support to bear loads and resist environmental stresses. Our work in this area includes site clearance, excavation, and the construction of various foundation designs. By ensuring the stability and durability of your property, we prevent subsidence and structural failure.

New Utility Installations

Our utility groundworks involve excavating trenches, laying and connecting pipes or cables for water, gas, electricity, telecommunications, and backfilling and compaction. This ensures a stable foundation, proper insulation, and protection of utility lines, facilitating efficient and reliable service delivery to local homes and businesses in and around Minehead and Taunton.

Drainage Installations and Repairs

Effective drainage systems prevent water accumulation that can damage a property and cause soil erosion. Our drainage company will excavate trenches, replace damaged pipes, install new drainage systems, and ensure proper slope and grading. These repairs enhance the efficiency of water management systems and reduce the risk of flooding.

Concreting

Concreting is a fundamental aspect of any groundwork. It involves applying concrete for various applications, including foundations, driveways, and structural supports. Proper concreting ensures strength and durability, with groundwork including site preparation, formwork, mixing, pouring, and curing concrete to achieve the desired strength and finish.

Pipe Relaying

Pipe relaying is essential for maintaining and upgrading water and sewage systems. This process involves excavating existing pipelines, removing and replacing damaged sections, and ensuring proper alignment and connections. We will also test for leaks and confirm the new pipes are adequately supported and protected from potential damage.

Hard Landscaping

Hard landscaping involves constructing permanent features in outdoor spaces, such as patios, pavements and driveways. JB Jetting Services completes all excavation, grading, base preparation, drainage, and surface installations. These groundworks will enhance the aesthetic appeal and functionality of outdoor areas, providing durable, low-maintenance solutions.

Treatment Tank Installations and Replacements

Installing and replacing treatment tanks involves several groundwork tasks, including removing older systems, excavating for new installations, connecting the tanks to existing sewage works, and backfilling and compaction. This process ensures that wastewater is effectively treated and disposed of, protecting the environment and complying with regulatory standards.
