🎉A huge congratulations to Ian Henderson on reaching 25 years with us!

Over the years, Ian's career has taken him from working in the yard, to depot management, becoming our first multi-site manager, and most recently taking on the role of Trainer in the North. Throughout that journey, he's made a significant contribution to our business and has been a trusted source of support, advice and encouragement for so many colleagues.

We're incredibly grateful for Ian's loyalty, dedication and commitment over the last 25 years.

Please join us in congratulating Ian on this fantastic achievement! 👏

Delivering complex infrastructure projects is rarely about a single solution. It takes collaboration, technical expertise and the ability to adapt to challenges as they arise.

Working alongside George Leslie, we supported Scottish Water's rising sewer main upgrade in Saltcoats, helping to overcome challenging ground conditions and maintain safe access during a critical phase of the project.

🎥 Watch the video below to hear more about the project and the value of a collaborative approach.

This week, we're saying goodbye to Jackie Curtis as she heads off to enjoy a well-earned retirement.

Jackie is one of those people who simply gets things done. Her determination, leadership and unwavering commitment have made a huge impact over the years, and she has been a trusted colleague, mentor and source of support to so many across the business.

While she'll be greatly missed by colleagues across the business, we're incredibly grateful for everything she has contributed and the legacy she leaves behind.

Thank you, Jackie, and congratulations on your retirement. We wish you all the happiness in this next chapter. 💙

Hotter conditions can affect how temporary works and structures behave, making monitoring an increasingly important part of keeping projects safe and on track.

In our latest blog, Elliott Griffin and Dave Bradshaw explore some of the challenges rising temperatures can create for groundworks projects, from thermal expansion and changing loads to the role of real-time monitoring in helping teams make informed decisions.

Not all bridge restoration projects are straightforward... especially when the bridge is nearly 200 years old!

As part of the restoration of the iconic Marlow Bridge, our team helped support works to replace ageing bearings on the Grade I listed structure.

Alongside the propping and jacking solution, our monitoring specialists installed sensors across the bridge to keep a close eye on movement, vibration and loading throughout the works. This helped engineers understand exactly how the bridge was behaving and ensured the project could be carried out safely.

A fascinating project to be involved in and a great example of different teams coming together to deliver a complete solution.

Real-time monitoring is about more than collecting data. It's about giving project teams the information they need to make confident decisions when it matters most.

That's where Insite adds real value. Wireless monitoring data is delivered straight to a secure web portal, giving teams live visibility of site conditions as they develop.

With instant alerts when thresholds are exceeded and automated reporting available on demand, Insite helps teams stay ahead of issues rather than reacting to them, supporting safer, more informed decision-making throughout a project.

As UK summers continue to break temperature records, what could this mean for groundworks projects?

With hotter weather becoming more common, it's important to understand how changing temperatures can influence temporary works on site.

In our latest blog, Elliott Griffin, Senior Design Engineer, and Dave Bradshaw, Monitoring Manager, take a closer look at the impact of thermal expansion on propping systems, the role of monitoring technology, and how real-time data can help teams manage risk and respond proactively to changing conditions.

From intelligent monitoring solutions to hydraulic systems, the article explores practical approaches to helping projects remain safe and efficient as weather patterns continue to evolve.

Sometimes the most complex engineering challenges involve the smallest movements.

For the restoration of the historic Marlow Bridge, we provided a bespoke propping, jacking and monitoring solution to safely lower the bridge deck by just 2mm so critical bearing replacement works could take place.

Working on a Grade I listed structure while maintaining traffic flow across this iconic Thames crossing made for a fascinating project for our teams.
