So, you can remain assured of getting complete protection during rainstorms when runoffs can ultimately weaken the soil, causing it to spill down slopes.
Home Extensions
There are different types of home extensions. Some people prefer extending their homes upwards while others extend into lofts, whilst others prefer side extensions and downward extensions.
When it comes to the most popular home extensions, the side extensions are generally favoured as they help homeowners in extending the sides of their homes with anything from the first or the second-floor extensions to porches and even conservatories.
With a plethora of options available, there are good reasons why homeowners might benefit from going for our home extension services.
Our home extension services will help property owners in making the most of external space; to gain another reception room or bedroom; to make a kitchen a large entertaining space, for storage, complete home remodelling or maybe an additional bathroom. Not only do home extensions maximise space and enhance your living area, they add value to your property too.
New-Builds
Our new-build solutions will help you realise all construction requirements. We deal with traditionally constructed homes and more contemporary builds.
We at Footings Direct are experts at undertaking all the different facets of building, building control and liaising with the planning departments so our clients can enjoy stress-free developments.

The experienced architects working for our firm have years of experience designing and sizing beautiful homes for our customers.
Driveways
Driveways, whether new or the old ones repaired or replaced to look new, bring in many advantages.
Crumbling driveways do not just make the home look uncared for and unattractive but might take a lot of time just to be cleaned and maintained.
Our decorative stone and block paving driveways serve as one of the best options when it comes to having long-term and low maintenance outside areas. These require a single jet wash to keep looking fantastic.
Our driveways are more affordable than frequent repairs, and they even add considerable value to homes. They can serve as a great means of personalising homes and making them look really well-cared for.
Block-Paving
The other name for block-paving is brick-paving, and it is one of the best decorative ways of creating hard-standing or pavements. One of the greatest advantages of going for brick instead of other materials is that individual bricks can easily be lifted and even replaced if they start wearing out or get damaged entirely.
Bricks used for block-paving are generally made of clay or concrete and sometimes composite materials.
