Building from the Ground Up: Intelligent, Robust Ground Engineering

At John F Hunt Regeneration, we deliver advanced ground engineering solutions that provide the stable foundations essential for sustainable development. From former industrial sites to major infrastructure schemes, our expertise helps unlock complex, high-risk land for commercial, residential, and public sector use.

Our Services

1Ground Improvement & Stabilisation

We deploy a range of geotechnical techniques to treat weak or variable soils, increase load-bearing capacity, and reduce settlement risk. Our methods include:

  • Dynamic compaction

  • Vibro stone columns

  • Controlled modulus columns (CMC)

  • Lime and cement soil stabilisation

2Deep Foundations & Piling Support

Working alongside structural and civils partners, we support the design and installation of deep foundation systems including:

  • CFA and rotary bored piling

  • Grouting and underpinning

  • Retaining wall foundations

  • Ground anchors and soil nails

3Earthworks & Reprofiling

Our in-house plant and engineering teams deliver:

  • Bulk earthworks and platform preparation

  • Surcharge loading and settlement monitoring

  • Cut-and-fill modelling and optimisation

  • Reinforced soil structures

4Mine Workings & Voids Treatment

We’re experts in managing risk from historic mining activity across the UK. Services include:

  • Void infill and grouting

  • Shaft capping

  • Shallow mine treatment

  • Geophysical investigations and monitoring

5Groundwater & Drainage Management

Subsurface water can undermine structural integrity. Our capabilities include:

  • Dewatering systems

  • Permeable reactive barriers

  • Groundwater attenuation and control

  • Interceptor drainage for brownfield sites
