Mr Oliver Lawton

Hi, I’m Oliver from O.P.L Groundwork&#39;s. We are a Staffordshire based company and have 10 years&#39; experience in the industry. We are a team of 3, this consists of Oliver (owner) also with the help of Aaron &amp; Charlie. I’ve been working on a new build site doing the bigger groundwork side of things, while on the weekends focusing on the finer detail on my private jobs. I’ve decided to go by myself full time, so I can help people build their dream gardens/drives, and this work gives me job satisfaction at the end of it knowing the hard work was all worth it. We strive to be trustworthy and reliable and will always show up when we state. We will also arrive on site every day for 8am.

O.P.L Groundwork’s

For anyone thinking of having garden work - O.P.L Groundworks have just completed an amazing transformation of our garden and we are delighted. 
Ollie was really helpful with the planning and design, as well as offering great ideas which enabled us to create our ideal garden. He provided a detailed and very competitive quote. And along with his team - Aaron, Brendan & Luke have exceeded all our expectations. 
Many thanks to you all and we would definitely recommend O.P.L Groundwork Gary & Rachel

Garden Transformation

We couldn’t be happier with our garden’s transformation. What started as a characterless, sloping new-build lawn has been thoughtfully redesigned into tiered levels.
Ollie’s quote was competitive & offered excellent value for the quality of work delivered. Ollie listened to our ideas while offering practical advice on how to navigate the slope. His recommendations for the finishes were spot on; pairing smooth porcelain paving with texture on the retaining wall - all finished with strip lighting. Team were respectful, and incredibly hardworking, even in challenging weather. Highly recommend

Excellent transformation and communication from start to finish

Great job, great price! Super quick turnaround. Overall an easy choice to make using them.

Top work

O.P.L Groundworks carried out a considerable transformation of our front garden and driveway between 19th January 2026 and 23rd January. The team were unbelievably 
terrific. The weather was the pits!!! They shrugged it all off and executed a superb job
despite the rain.
The project we knew would be difficult because of the slope of the ground. They gave us exactly what we wanted to the very highest standards. Mr Lawton and his team,  we would trust with our next project. I recommend O.P.L. to the highest level.

A project executed to perfection.

Massive shoutout to Olly and the lads O.P.L Groundworks for the works they’ve completed on our garden recently. Completely transformed the garden and great quality work too. Couldn’t recommend them enough.

Garden work

We couldn't be happier with our new garden. Olly was so flexible when we decided to break the project into two parts, and his attention to detail on our porcelain patio is second to none. They even made sure everything was perfectly clean before they left. Look forward to phase two next year!

Highly recommend!
