G N Groundworks Ltd in short

G N Groundworks Ltd is a St George’s civil engineering and groundworks contractor serving commercial clients across the Midlands, behind an active limited company formed in 2006. The site lists CHAS, Constructionline, Alcumus Safe Contractor, Avetta and ISO 9001 accreditation, the fullest safety shelf in this table. A pre-construction team sits behind the enquiry form. G N Groundworks Ltd reads as the corporate choice here, in our opinion.

Customer reviews are mixed: four point one out of five from eleven Google ratings, with a single five-star TradesmenUp review beside it. That headline trails the domestic firms in this table, in our view. What else counts against it is the absence of insurance detail, prices or VAT terms. Our review finds a credentialled commercial contractor with public feedback to improve.

Our verdict

Our judgement: GN suits you if you want a commercial groundworks contractor in Telford with a company record back to 2006 and named safety accreditations on its site [2] [4]. What counts against it is the 4.1 Google rating and the absence of insurance or pricing detail. Its enquiry route is clear and direct [3].
