Services
Groundworks
Our groundworks services include land clearance, excavation, and foundation layout for residential and commercial projects. We ensure proper site preparation with drainage installation and substructure works, adhering to strict safety standards. Our team handles projects of all sizes, from small residential builds to large-scale developments, delivering reliable solutions that meet project timelines and budgets.
Piling
We specialise in piling solutions for unstable soil conditions, using methods like Continuous Flight Auger and mini-piling. Our expertise ensures structural stability for commercial and domestic properties. With over 25 years of experience, we design and install deep foundations that extend the lifespan of buildings, working closely with engineers and architects to meet exact specifications.
Underpinning
Our underpinning services reinforce existing foundations for residential and commercial structures. We use traditional concrete methods and modern techniques like pile and needle beam systems. This addresses subsidence issues caused by soil changes, nearby construction, or basement extensions, ensuring long-term structural integrity while minimising disruption to property owners.
Reinforced Concrete
We provide reinforced concrete solutions including slabs, beams, and foundations. Steel reinforcement increases structural durability against tensile forces. Our team works to precise engineering drawings for both new builds and repair projects, ensuring compliance with safety standards. Services cover residential, commercial, and public sector contracts across the South West.
Drainage
Our drainage services prevent water damage to foundations through proper system design and installation. We handle new build drainage, remedial work, and attenuation tank installations. By addressing water runoff during foundation construction, we protect structures from long-term damp issues and foundation cracking, ensuring compliance with building regulations.
