Founded on solid principles, we have built a strong reputation in groundworks and civil engineering.
Our journey began with a commitment to quality and safety, establishing trust with residential clients.
Today, we continue to take pride in delivering exceptional projects that meet our clients’ needs.
For nearly 20 years, Dorrington Groundworks has built a strong reputation as a reliable, approachable, and efficient groundworks and civil engineering contractor. Led by Managing Director Joe Dorrington, alongside his brother Nick and father Roger Dorrington, the company oversees a diverse range of projects, primarily focused on residential housing developments across Hampshire, West Sussex, and Wiltshire — all within an hour of our head office.
Dorrington Groundworks is proud to have an experienced team of highly skilled professionals, including machine operators, groundworkers, street works operatives, and finishing gangs. With our team’s combined expertise, we are able to deliver a complete groundworks package from start to finish — ensuring seamless project progression without delays or the need for additional contractors.
In addition to our extensive groundworks expertise, Dorrington Homes undertakes small residential developments and house extensions. Our hands-on experience in construction and civil engineering enables us to deliver high-quality builds from the ground up.
