Property with Effective Drainage & Groundworks
Reliable Groundworks & Drainage
At Advanced Driveways and Patios, we provide professional groundworks and drainage services to create strong, stable and well-drained outdoor spaces. We work across Brighton, Haywards Heath, Horsham, Shoreham-by-Sea, Saltdean, Falmer, Newhaven, Lewes, Worthing, Steyning, Henfield, Hassocks, Hurstpierpoint, Burgess Hill and Portslade, delivering groundwork solutions tailored to the needs of each site.
Good ground preparation is the foundation of any successful driveway, patio or landscaping project. Our team undertakes everything from site clearance and excavation through to levelling and grading, sub-base installation, footings, and retaining walls—helping to prevent issues such as sinking, movement and uneven finishes later on.
Proper drainage is just as important. To reduce the risk of waterlogging, standing water and damage caused by poor run-off, we install effective systems such as soakaways, French drains, land drains and channel drainage. These solutions help manage water flow and protect your property throughout the year, especially during heavy rainfall.
With extensive experience and a focus on quality, we deliver reliable, durable and cost-effective groundworks and drainage—handling the full process from initial preparation through to the final installation.

Groundworks & Drainage Services
Our Groundworks & Drainage service is designed to provide a firm base and dependable water control for your outdoor areas. From ground preparation through to drainage installation, we help reduce the risk of standing water, flooding and erosion, protecting both your surfaces and the ground beneath them.
Groundworks
Good groundworks are essential for any long-lasting driveway, patio or landscaping project. We carry out site preparation, excavation, levelling, sub-base installation and foundation works, ensuring the ground is properly built up, compacted and ready for the next stage. This helps prevent common problems such as movement, sinking and uneven finishes over time.
Drainage Solutions
Poor drainage can cause puddling, soft ground and damage to hardstanding areas. We design and install practical drainage systems to manage excess water and direct it safely away. This can include soakaways, French drains, land drains and channel drainage, depending on your property and the layout of the site. The result is a drier, safer outdoor space that performs better throughout the year.
Repair & Maintenance
Drainage and groundwork can deteriorate due to blockages, ground movement or general wear. We provide reliable repairs such as clearing and correcting drainage issues, strengthening weakened areas, and making good any subsidence. Routine maintenance helps avoid costly problems and keeps your outdoor areas working as they should for the long term.
