Something else?

If it involves groundworks or building, ask. We would rather take a look and quote it straight than turn good work away.

Landscaping &
garden transformations

Hard landscaping is groundworks for gardens, and it is exactly what we are built for. We take on the structural side: levelling, drainage, retaining walls and proper sub bases, so the finished garden sits right and stays right. For planting and the soft side we work alongside a trusted local landscaper, so you get the full transformation from one team.

01 / GT

Garden transformations

Sloping or tired gardens reshaped, levelled and rebuilt into usable outdoor space, planned and dug properly from the ground up.

02 / PT

Patios & terraces

Patios and raised terraces laid on a compacted, well drained base so they do not sink, crack or pool water.

03 / RW

Retaining walls

Reinforced retaining and sleeper walls built to hold ground safely, with drainage designed in behind them.

04 / LD

Levelling & drainage

Ground levelling, regrading, soakaways and garden drainage to fix wet, uneven plots and prep for garden rooms and outbuildings.

Who you're
dealing with

Founder-led, with a background in major civil construction.

Helcon Building Limited is run by its founder, Mayo, who comes from a background in heavy civil construction. Before setting up in East Yorkshire, he worked as a leading hand and plant operator on major infrastructure, including oil and gas civil works and the Wambo Wind Farm in Queensland, one of Australia's largest renewable energy projects, where the turbine foundations alone ran to tens of thousands of cubic metres of concrete.

That background shapes how your job gets done: time on the machines and leading crews on big sites means ground and foundations to engineering standards, proper setting out and levels, and a clean, methodical site from first dig to final tidy-up. The difference here is you get that directly from the person on the tools, not passed down a chain of subcontractors.
