With over 40 years’ experience in pre-cast, reinforced-concrete basement and foundation construction, we know what works. Specialists in the field, we've delivered residential and commercial projects in subsidence areas, on slopes, and in areas with a high water table or risk of flooding.
Developers and Architects trust Glatthaar when they need experience, reliability, speed and a quality product. With a fixed-price contract and single point of contact, we take on the legal responsibilities providing the necessary engineering and structural plans, ensuring building control approval, and providing a full 10 year company warranty, with eligibility for an insurance backed warranty against any water ingress.
Our tried and tested processes developed over more than 70,000 projects, mean we’re highly efficient and can respond quickly. With all stages handled in house by our own full-time teams, we can organise schedules, H&S, and onsite activity to suit your standards, building programme and deadlines, across all of the UK.
Building plots can't always provide unlimited height and space, but there is usually room for a basement. There are virtually no geological restrictions that can prevent us from installing a basement for you.
Any time a full or partial basement is something you're considering, we can produce an initial estimate within a day or two, so you can know if it’s within budget, before spending too long on detailed plans, etc.

The benefits of off-site construction - Fast and Reliable with a Precision Finish
The advantages of a Glatthaar basement include:
Individual elements are prefabricated in our factories under optimal conditions, regardless of the weather and according to precise specifications, saving time and money, guaranteeing planning security and helping to avoid lengthy on-site construction.
Thanks to the production process using waterproof concrete, prefabricated basements offer the best possible protection against moisture penetration.
A Glatthaar basement can usually be finished within three to five days. Exact schedules will ultimately depend on specific customer requirements as well as the size of the basement.
