Concrete Structures

Reinforced Concrete Structures

Reinforced concrete remains one of the most widely used construction materials within civil engineering due to its strength, durability and versatility. We deliver reinforced concrete works for a wide variety of infrastructure and development projects, providing robust structures designed to perform for decades.

Our reinforced concrete services include retaining walls, reinforced concrete walls, structural foundations, concrete bases, headwalls and other bespoke concrete structures. Working closely with project teams and engineers, we ensure all works are delivered in accordance with project specifications and construction requirements.

Commercial & Industrial Infrastructure

Our civil engineering services support a diverse range of commercial and industrial developments, including distribution centres, manufacturing facilities, business parks, industrial estates and infrastructure improvement projects.

We understand the importance of programme certainty, site safety and effective communication throughout the construction process. By working collaboratively with clients and project teams, we help ensure projects are delivered on time and to the required specification.

Section 278 Highway Works

We undertake Section 278 (S278) highway works associated with residential, commercial and industrial developments. These works are often required where a development impacts the existing public highway network and improvements are necessary to accommodate increased traffic or provide safe site access.

Typical works include:
  • Access road construction
  • Junction improvements
  • Kerbing and edging
  • Footways and pedestrian routes
  • Highway drainage
  • Road widening schemes
  • Traffic islands and crossings
  • Associated infrastructure works
Our team understands the importance of delivering highway works safely while minimising disruption to road users and neighbouring businesses.
