Struts, walers, shoring
A retaining wall is only as good as what is holding it. We design, supply, erect and later recover the steel that props an excavation — sized to each stage of the dig, not to a single worst case.
Where buildings stand close, the scheme starts before the excavation: pre-condition surveys, settlement markers and a monitoring regime that turns movement into a number instead of a dispute.

How we do it
Written down before mobilisation, so nobody discovers the plan halfway through the dig.
Pre-condition survey
Photographic and dimensional record of everything standing within the zone of influence.
Scheme design
Strut, waler and king post layout with a stage-by-stage load check for each dig level.
Erect & preload
Steel erected level by level as the excavation drops, preloaded where design requires it.
Monitor & de-prop
Settlement and convergence read weekly; steel released in reverse sequence as slabs cast.
Where it is used
Some of the situations clients bring this service to us for.
Tight urban plots
Excavations with zero setback from a boundary wall or an occupied building.
Metro & utility trenches
Long cut-and-cover runs propped in bays to keep traffic diversions short.
Existing structures
Underpinning and temporary support alongside live buildings and factories.
Deep pits
Lift pits, tank pits and pump chambers inside a completed basement.

On record
Verticality logs, cube results, test certificates and daily safety sheets are collected as the work happens and issued weekly — not assembled the week before handover.
Frequently asked
Something else on your mind? Call the office — an engineer answers, not a call centre.
Yes. Layouts, load checks and a written method statement come from our engineering team and are issued for your consultant to review.
It is ours. We recover, clean and reuse it — you pay for use, not for buying a yard full of sections.
Markers on adjacent structures are read weekly against a pre-agreed trigger value. Cross a trigger and work stops until the cause is understood.
Yes. King posts and needle beams are routinely used to prop through and around existing slabs and foundations.
