Explore our comprehensive range of expert groundwork and civils services
At United Civils, we deliver reliable and compliant groundwork solutions for public sector projects. From schools and highways to council developments, we provide the groundwork expertise local authorities can depend on.
Working across Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, and Derbyshire, we support councils, education providers, and transport agencies with groundworks that meet exacting standards. Whether upgrading existing infrastructure or developing new public assets, we work with care, precision, and full regulatory compliance.
Our public sector work spans a wide range of environments — including educational, transport, healthcare, civic, and emergency services. We deliver groundworks that support long-term use, public safety, and compliance with planning and building control requirements.
Typical works include:
School and campus groundwork packages
Road and footpath improvements
Car park construction and kerbing
Foundations for modular buildings and extensions
Drainage systems and soakaways
Ducting for lighting, CCTV, or utilities
All work is delivered under RAMS with on-site supervision, appropriate fencing, and safeguarding where required.
Our operatives are CSCS-certified and trained in working within public and live environments. For highway or footpath works, we are Street Works (NRSWA) qualified, allowing us to legally operate in and around adopted infrastructure.
Compliance includes:
Confined space and manual handling training
Chapter 8 traffic management standards
CDM compliance with method statements and risk assessments
Asbestos awareness for refurbishment sites
Environmental and waste management compliance
We ensure minimal disruption to surrounding services and coordinate with local authorities and design teams to maintain programme and safety standards.
Public sector sites often remain in use during construction. We are experienced in working around staff, pupils, service users, and the general public. Our teams are briefed on conduct, safety, and clean working practices at all times.
We implement:
Clear segregation of work zones
Signage and barriers for pedestrian control
Restricted access protocols
Out-of-hours working if required
Liaison with site managers and caretakers
We value strong working relationships with local councils, housing associations, schools, and NHS Trusts. Our repeat work reflects the trust placed in us to deliver groundworks that are clean, safe, on time, and to spec — with the reliability and documentation that public clients expect.
