Groundworks & Landscaping Services in Midhurst

Built for South Downs conditions — neat, durable, compliant

Your local experts for stress-free outdoor projects

Having professional Groundworks & Landscaping in Midhurst is important due to the mix of river soils, slopes and National Park sensitivities calls for work that’s planned properly from the outset. We handle groundworks, patios, landscaping, driveways and drainage under one organised programme, so you get clear scope, tidy sites and a finish that stays looking good. Expect accurate setting-out, controlled excavation, compacted sub-bases and discreet water management to protect structures and surfaces. You’ll get straight advice, clear pricing and a clean handover from first dig to final sweep. We start with a measured survey and a clear phasing plan, coordinate any services or access constraints, and keep neighbours informed. Materials are ordered to programme, waste is removed responsibly, and every stage is checked against levels and drawings for a faultless result.

Close to the River Rother we pay extra attention to levels, outfalls and attenuation, so heavy weather doesn’t disrupt everyday living. Where plots sit lower or near flood routes, we specify SuDS-appropriate solutions, permeable options and correctly sized soakaways to manage run-off safely. Within the National Park context we favour natural stone, clay pavers and sympathetic edging, pairing traditional character with modern performance. Subtle falls, frost-resistant bedding and colour-matched jointing complete a smart, durable finish. If you’d like to see options, we provide samples and lay out small test areas so you can choose with confidence.

Update: We recently had T&K HUMPHREY LTD for a second Job, to lay a new patio as we were so pleased with their pevious work they did for us - And again they were excellent - Competitively priced (not the cheapest, but by far the best value), kept great communication and did an amazing Job, leaving the site spotless. I can highly recommend them, an absolute delight to work with. --- We were very happy with the recent work carried out by T & K Humphrey. They built an Oak Sleeper retaining wall in our garden which we are delighted with. The team were really friendly, professional and hard working. T & K Humphrey have been a pleasure to work from start to finish. They offered us great advice along the way, and went above and beyond. I highly recommend them.

We recently had Jon and Tim to re-landscape our garden comprising a large expanse of lawn that had particularly poor drainage. From the beginning, Jon and Tim were very professional and easy to communicate with. We ended up having the central lawn dug up and drainage placed into our soak away along with new top soil and lawn placed - this was a last minute decision that they easily accommodated. Along with that, we wanted gravel areas around this with paving next to one of our garden rooms. Jon and Tim worked extremely hard and the project was completed in 3 weeks. We were worried the garden works would be extremely messy work, especially given it was February but they kept everywhere very clean and tidy and cleaned down everything at the end. Jon and Tim were great to work with, very thorough and genuinely nice people! Plus after receiving other quotes at the beginning, they were also very reasonably priced. We’d highly recommend them and would use them for any other garden/ grounds work needed. Now for us to start adding plants! Thank you

First class work from T&K Humphrey, couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We had foundations laid for a two story extension. Communication was great on all aspects of the build, all services were coordinated and punctual. They left the site immaculate and were flexible throughout. I would highly recommend if you want your work done, on time, to spec with an experienced team. Lovely fellas too!

Tim and John interpreted my brief perfectly and the end result exceeded my expectations. Their work has completely transformed my house and it was carried out quickly and efficiently with minimal disruption or mess. The loveliest people to deal with. I am delighted. Thank you.

We couldn't recommend Jon, Tim and their team highly enough after recently completing our landscaping project in Haslemere. It has been a real pleasure working with them. The project involved clearing and major levelling works, which involved 21 grab lorry movements of soil removal and building a retaining structure comprising approx 150 vertical oak sleepers. In addition, laying new turf and the installation of drainage beneath the new lawn, tree felling and relocating numerous shrubs to the perimeter of the garden, levelling a section of patio and installing a new pond. Everything was completed to the highest standard and the team worked professionally and efficiently throughout, completing the work in the time quoted and despite wet weather, keeping the site tidy at all times. Nothing was ever too much to ask. From our first meeting and introduction to Tim and Jon, when we discussed the brief we got a good feeling about the friendly yet professional approach and we would have no hesitation recommending them to others and working with them again.

We are BEYOND thrilled with the works T&K Humphrey completed for us on our new build in Haslemere, Surrey. This included the complete groundwork’s package for the new house, grubbing up the existing drive and hard standings, installing all new external finishes including permeable block paved drive way with granite setts border, porcelain tiled patio area and surrounding paths, sleeper retaining walls and steps to a split level rear garden, as well as soft landscaping including spread and level of topsoil and turf finishes to some areas. Tim, John, Tiny and Micky have been an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the build. The attention to detail, professionalism and communication has been absolutely top notch! They played a major part in us achieving our build on programme and on budget 👌🏼 We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend T & K Humphrey to anyone and everyone! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm very pleased with the work done, my decking was removed and replaced with a Sandstone patio. I was happy with the price the skip and materials turned up and the work was started and finished no mucking about.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work in Midhurst and nearby villages?

Yes we regularly carryout Groundworks & Landscaping in Midhurst. We know local access, boundary layouts and soil conditions, which helps projects run smoothly.

What fencing styles work best locally?

Closeboard and featheredge are popular for privacy and strength. We size posts, rails and gravel boards for wind load and ground conditions, and we’ll suggest options that suit your garden and budget.

How soon can you visit and how long will it take?

Site visits can usually be arranged quickly. Smaller projects often complete within a few working days; larger ones depend on scope, access and weather. You’ll get a clear programme, fixed price and tidy handover.

Can you coordinate with other trades and local suppliers?

Absolutely. We liaise with your builder, electrician or plumber to schedule trenching, ducts and bases, and we source from nearby merchants to keep lead times sensible.

Will a new driveway cope with frequent traffic and rain?

Yes—provided the groundwork is done correctly. We install a proper sub-base, set true levels and integrate drainage to protect thresholds and reduce run-off towards the lane.

Can drainage be retrofitted to fix problem areas?

Often, yes. A mix of channels, re-levelled surfaces and a soakaway can transform how a plot handles water. We’ll assess soil type and available outfalls on survey.
