Our Company

We are one of the UK’s leading specialist ground engineering contractors, based in Scotland and delivering projects throughout the UK. Our services include earthworks and a full range of ground improvement techniques, including soil modification and stabilisation, deep soil mixing and vibro stone columns. Since we offer a range of techniques, we can choose the right solution for each site rather than fitting every problem to a single technique.

Ground risk is one of the biggest threats to programme and budget on any development. Contractors and designers regularly approach us to review difficult sites and propose complete ground engineering solutions. We get involved early, working with project teams during pre-construction to find options that reduce material movements, cost and environmental impact. In suitable circumstances, we can work on a fixed-price basis, giving clients cost certainty when planning their budget.

We deliver across a wide range of sectors, including new build housing, energy, schools and community buildings, commercial and industrial developments, roads and infrastructure and flood defence. Our experience on complex projects, from HVDC converter stations and substations to housing and education sites, means the same engineering team and techniques are available to every client, whatever the size or sector. We have a growing track record in the energy market, and we continue to work with our housing, commercial and public sector clients. Explore our applications.

We invest in modern plant and the latest technology so we can deliver value-engineered solutions that are safe, on programme and built to a high standard.

Why clients choose us

• • One team, many techniques: earthworks, stabilisation, soil mixing and stone columns, so we choose the right method for your ground, not the one we happen to offer.
  • Early engineering input: our in-house design team works with yours before the design is fixed.
  • Material kept on site: we treat and reuse site-won material rather than exporting it and importing replacement, which cuts lorry movements and disruption for neighbours.
  • Safe and accredited: Constructionline Gold, SMAS and BSI certification.
