The Importance of Civil Engineering

Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline, dealing with the design, construction and maintenance of the physical and naturally-built environment. This sector contributes to projects in infrastructure, like highways, bridges, tunnels, drainage systems or building foundations. It is vital to infrastructure and development.

Civil engineering is crucial to sustainable growth, supporting new housing developments, transport upgrades and commercial expansion in Guildford. Through careful planning and execution, civil engineers ensure that our towns and cities function efficiently and safely.

Groundworks in Civil Engineering

Groundworks are an essential part of any civil engineering project. They involve preparing the land before construction begins and are critical to the long-term stability and success of a build. Pegley Groundworks Ltd has provided a full range of groundwork services to support many previous civil engineering projects in Guildford.

These include:
