Foundations are vital to the long-term condition of homes and commercial buildings across the UK. Without the right support, the property may sink or lurch as the soil beneath it shifts. Here at JPD Developments, we provide the care needed to ensure this doesn’t happen. Our groundworks team brings over six decades of experience to foundation installation, having achieved success across projects over a wide service area. Although based in Bromley, we lay firm, reliable foundations in various locations, including:
We don’t just lay a concrete slab and call it a day. In truth, new foundations demand a great deal of planning and decision making. It involves assessing both the site and needs of the upcoming build before pressing onward with the ideal foundation method. No matter the size of the home or commercial premises, we deliver the right solution every time.
Beyond footings and foundations, we can also offer a wider range of services. We provide the deep foundations and concrete underpinning needed to support even the largest of superstructures. Please visit our piling services page for more details.
Additionally, we offer a complete service for the property developments, new builds and refurbishment projects. Call us on 07732 342 786 to learn more.

Please contact JPD Developments to discuss your foundation needs. Our groundworks team deliver the full process, from excavation up to the damp-proof course.
Each build needs a foundation that bears the load of the structure above, transmitting the weight into the ground without compromise. This could prove difficult in soft or wet ground conditions, in which case your foundation installation team will be able to plan accordingly. Additionally, the foundations must anchor the property and prevent damage from ground-based moisture.
A firm set of foundations will keep your build safe as time goes on, even if the soil around it settles or shrinks – a process referred to as subsidence.
We offer a complete range of foundation services, including:
Shallow foundations come in various forms. We can build strip foundations that act similarly to individual footings, transferring the load above to the ground underneath. Our groundworks team also lays raft foundations that spread the weight evenly across a wide surface area, working much like a raft on the ocean. This type of foundation proves ideal for poor soils like clay and peat and features less pressure than other methods.
Trench fill foundation installation is also common in Bromley, Sevenoaks, Bexley, Surrey and the surrounding areas. We create a large trench that we then fill with concrete. This is often best for environments with loose soil or a high water table.
