Our Services

Concreting
A strong, hard building material composed of sand, gravel, cement, and water from plain ordinary concrete to lightweight, reinforced or high density forms. Lightweight concrete is often used for floor stones, window panels or roofs. Reinforced concrete is one of the most common materials used in construction, and uses steel rods, wire or cables embedded within the concrete to strengthen its overall structure and help buildings withstand strong forces such as earthquakes. High-density concrete uses larger particles of crushed rock compared to the fine aggregates that make up regular concrete, and this provides better protection against x-rays or radiation, making it particularly useful for building hospitals or nuclear power plants.

Foundations
Concrete foundations are one of the most critical elements of any project, even though they are not visible once the project is complete. Usually a large slap of concrete around 4-6 inches wide and designed to distribute the weight of the new building evenly and provide a firm footing. Foundations are generally separated into two categories – shallow foundations and deep foundations. Shallow foundations are used more commonly for small buildings and domestic projects. Deep foundations are required for taller commercial buildings or buildings built on very weak ground.

Drainage
Drainage systems allow the flow of water from one location to another, used in infrastructures and industries. Concrete drainage channels have two common purposes, to convey clean water and to divert excess water.

We fit drainage systems with a mixture of lengths of pipes and fittings such as bends, junctions and other fittings to either change the direction of the pipe or to adapt to another system.

Tarmac
Material used for surfacing roads and other outdoor areas, consisting of broken stone mixed with tar. Tarmac is an extremely strong, durable surfacing material, it offers a water-resistant surface that is excellent for areas that need good drainage.

We carefully plan and prepare our work to ensure a high quality finish that will last tailored to specific needs and requirements of each project. Tarmac is quick to lay and we only use the top grade materials to ensure that it is sturdy and solid long term.

Formwork
We build formwork structures used as temporary structures to pour concrete and to mould it to the required dimensions, until it is able to support itself. Shuttering is the most popular type of formwork and is normally constructed on site using timber and plywood. A special grade of plywood is necessary for shuttering as it must be water resistant.

We can provide the highest quality formwork to create and maintain structures no matter the shape or size. Get in contact to speak to one of our experts.
