NHBC-Compliant Groundworks
New build driveways for Abridge's village detached homes and rural bungalows—NHBC-compliant groundworks on alluvial river clay, coordinated with developer timelines.

Developer Coordination
Phased scheduling aligned with construction timeline and NHBC checks
Why Chigwell Resin Driveways
New build driveways fail when sub-base drainage doesn't account for local soil conditions—waterlogging and settlement follow within the first winter.
Abridge's river clay and gravelly loam hold water unless sub-base includes drainage channels—pooling appears after first heavy rain.
Woodland humidity and freeze-thaw cycles expand moisture in poorly compacted groundworks, causing surface cracks by spring.
Driveway installation scheduled without liaison with groundworks and utilities creates bottlenecks, pushing handover dates back weeks.
Sub-base includes drainage channels and permeable layers meeting NHBC standards, preventing waterlogging on alluvial clay soils.
Compacted aggregate base provides load-bearing stability and drainage voids, preventing settlement on gravelly loam.
