Dig-Down Drain & Sewer Repairs

Our first option is to repair a broken drain or sewer using our no-dig CIPP pipe rehabilitation system. However, sometimes the damage is too severe and there is no option but conventional excavation and repair.

Our Civils teams carry out the work to an agreed price and timetable, leaving the site in as close to the condition it was before our work commenced.

Carriageway Failures and Repairs

We can also carry out highway alterations – pot-hole repairs, duct repairs, kerb repairs, renewing or repairing slabs, tarmac and iron works.

Flood Attenuation Drainage Control Systems

Climate change and alterations to the built environment have caused more frequent flooding and the consequent damage to property as well as the risk to life.

Flood attenuation systems act as a collection area for large exceptional volumes of flood water. Water is stored and then released at a rate that the sewers can cope with.
