A J McPherson Ltd. carried out the groundworks for our self-build project, a detached domestic property in the Craiglockhart area of Edinburgh, with integral garage. The scope of the work was to excavate and level the site and remove arisings, install drainage, build retaining wall, lay foundations, and ground slabs and provide site access, ready for the erection of the external timber SIPS superstructure.

A J McPherson Ltd worked closely with us to organize and deliver this work, within a tight timescale (February to April 2017) to meet the delivery date for the SIPS panels. Alistair McPherson led the work himself and I was particularly impressed by his level of competence and experience and by the way he organised his team and communicated with us on a daily basis before and during the project. Alistair confidently addressed any problems as they arose, for example working with the structural engineer to ensure proper stabilisation of a soft spot in the ground at the rear of the property.

The team worked safely, carefully and efficiently and within our agreed budget with a clear focus on the end goal. I was particularly pleased that the finished line and levels were within tolerance (particularly given the wet conditions during construction) and there were no issues at the interface with the SIPS panels. Once the building was erected, A J McPherson Ltd sourced and installed some galvanized steel beams for the bridge up to the front door, laid the footpath, built an additional retaining wall, and generally helped to leave a tidy site ready for landscaping. Overall, we were very happy with the service provided by Alistair and his team and I would gladly recommend A J McPherson Ltd for future work of this kind

Alistair and his team were a pleasure to work with during our Self Build project. The site presented significant challenges with a steep slope from roadside to riverbank. Alistair’s work included sheet piling to retain the site at both roadside and riverbank plus a significant retaining wall at Ground floor level to support the property half way down the site.

Groundworks to include foundations, blockwork, drainage, rainwater attenuation tank, sewage pumping station, block & beam support for the drive and ground floor for the house. The work was completed with professionalism, liaising with structural Engineer, Architect and SIPS contractor to resolve issues in a practical manner, making good use of Alistair’s experience. We were informed at all times with program consequences of the challenges on site and are entirely satisfied with the job done and the handover to subsequent contractors.
