Reinstatement Work
Reinstatement After Utility Works
Every trench dug in a road or pavement has to be put back so it will not sink, crack or break up. We have reinstated footways and carriageways on behalf of Kent County Council and utility companies, backfilling and compacting in layers, then laying base and surface courses to match the construction around the opening.
Our SWQR street works registration shows our operatives hold the street works qualifications needed to excavate and reinstate in the public highway.
Our WorkAbout Us
Our Experience with Reinstatement Work
We are a family run groundworks business based in Staplehurst, and we bring over 20 years of experience to every reinstatement work job across Kent, East and West Sussex and south-east London.
The same small, friendly team surveys the job, prepares the ground and finishes the surface, so you deal with the people doing the work from the first visit to the final sweep.
We have worked on behalf of Kent County Council and utility companies, our team is registered with the Street Works Qualifications Register, and we are approved under the Trading Standards Buy With Confidence scheme.

Reinstatement Work
Working to Specification
Reinstatements in England follow the Specification for the Reinstatement of Openings in Highways, which sets the materials, layer thicknesses and compaction for each type of road and footway. We work to it, and to any extra requirements in the job, so the reinstatement passes inspection.
The surfaces we reinstate include tarmac, block paving, paving slabs and kerbs, so the finished patch matches what was there before the works.
Our WorkReinstatement Work
Safe Working on the Highway
Openings are signed, lit and guarded in line with the street works code of practice, and pedestrian routes are kept open where possible. That keeps the public and our team safe and keeps disruption to the road as short as it can be.
