About Subsoil Land & Water
We're a small, independent groundworks business based in Battle, East Sussex. No corporate layers, no call centres — just a focused local team that takes pride in every job we do across Kent and Sussex.
A Local Business, Built on Trust
Subsoil Land & Water is a small, independent groundworks business based in Battle, East Sussex. We're not a big contractor — and that's exactly how we like it. Being small means every job matters to us, every client gets our full attention, and every project is handled personally by the people you speak to from day one.
We know the ground in Kent and East Sussex better than anyone. From the Weald's heavy clay to the chalk downlands and the shifting coastal soils around Hastings and Bexhill, our local knowledge means we get it right the first time — no guesswork, no surprises.
Whether you're a homeowner needing a land drain, a farmer after new drainage, or a builder requiring a reliable groundworks partner, we'll treat your project like it's our own. That's the difference a local, independent business makes.
