FAQs
For buyers.
What size packages do you take on?
Anything from a few plots of drainage and services to a full groundworks package on a live highway scheme like M6 J10. If it's in the ground, we'll price it.
Are you pre-qualified?
Yes. We're a Constructionline Gold member, CHAS accredited and PQS (SSIP) approved, and we can send our full pre-qualification pack on request.
Which tickets do your operatives hold?
Everyone holds CSCS for their role. Across the team we hold NRSWA, PTS, SMSTS, SSSTS, NEBOSH, confined space and first aid, with entries on the SWQR.
How far will you travel?
Mostly within an hour and a half of Manchester, but we'll go nationwide for the right project.
Can you work under traffic management or at night?
Yes. We worked next to live traffic and in night possessions on the M6 J10 scheme, and we plan our sequences around TM.
