Welcome to Ellis Building & Groundworks Ltd

Based in Blandford Forum and serving Dorset and surrounding areas, we’re a local, reliable, and efficient team specialising in high-quality groundwork and building services. Whether it’s a brand-new driveway, a concrete base for your tank, or a complete groundworks package, we bring solid craftsmanship and down-to-earth professionalism to every job. Rain or shine, we get the job done – on time, on budget, and to the highest standard.

From the ground up, we deliver strong starts.
We handle all aspects of domestic and light commercial groundworks, including site clearance, excavation, foundations, drainage, and sub-base preparation. Every project starts with solid, well-planned groundwork – and that’s where we excel.

Level, durable, and built to spec.
Whether it’s for a gas tank, garden building, industrial unit, or shed, we create precision-poured concrete bases tailored to your needs. We manage everything from formwork to finishing, ensuring long-lasting performance in every installation.

Practical access with kerb appeal.
We install a range of driveways using block paving, gravel, or stone, all designed to last and complement your property. With careful attention to drainage, edging, and layout, we deliver driveways that are both functional and visually smart.

Reliable structure, clean finish.
From boundary walls to structural builds, we provide high-quality blockwork and retaining walls that serve both residential and commercial needs. Every wall is built with precision and care, ensuring safety, stability, and a tidy finish.

Secure, stylish, and built to last.
We supply and install high-quality fencing for homes and commercial properties across Dorset. From classic timber panels to custom boundary solutions, every fence is installed with care, precision, and durability in mind.

Outdoor spaces with purpose and style.
We create functional and attractive outdoor areas using timber, paving, and brickwork. Whether it’s a patio, raised beds, or garden steps, our landscaping work is practical, tidy, and built to fit the way you use your space.

Smaller scale, same attention to detail.
We also take on smaller jobs that make a big difference — from steps and shed bases to drainage fixes or wall repairs. You’ll get the same reliable service and professional finish, no matter the size of the task.
