Frequently asked questions
What does a reinforced concrete frame package include?
Steel fixing, formwork and concrete placement for the foundations, columns, walls and slabs shown on the structural engineer's drawings.
Do you use your own trades?
Yes. Steel fixers, shuttering carpenters and concrete finishers are all trades we hold in the business, and the same trades are available through labour hire.
Do you build below ground as well as above?
Yes. Basements, underpinning and groundworks are part of the same structural works side, so the substructure and the frame can be carried out by one contractor.
Can you supply steel fixers or shuttering carpenters only?
Yes. Both trades are available through our labour hire side for contractors who need labour for their own concrete works.
What do you need to price a reinforced concrete frame?
The engineer's drawings, the site address and the programme, with any information you hold on ground conditions and existing services. We review the drawings and arrange a site visit before we price.
