    Onyx Civils: Your Trusted Groundworks Partner in the South West Onyx Civils is a family-run business with a passion for delivering exceptional groundworks and civil engineering solutions. We're based in Dorset and operate throughout the South of England, providing a comprehensive range of services to meet your project needs. Our Story: From Humble Beginnings to a Leading Groundworks Contractor Our founder, Rob Williams, has been involved in the construction industry since childhood. His passion for machinery and construction led him to pursue a career in heavy plant mechanics, gaining valuable experience working on various projects for local councils and Wessex Water. In 2012, Rob established himself as a sole trader, quickly building a reputation for quality and reliability. As demand grew, he formed Williams Plant, expanding his services and fleet of machinery. In 2016, Rob and his wife Fiona, who had always been a key part of the business, decided to form a limited company. With a dedicated team of experienced operators and ground workers, Williams Plant Dorset Ltd secured significant contracts as both a main and principal contractor. In 2020, the company was renamed Onyx Civils Limited, reflecting their commitment to excellence and the values they hold dear. Onyx, meaning 'claw' in Greek, also represents a rare precious stone symbolizing positivity, determination, stamina, perseverance, and courage – qualities that define Onyx Civils' approach to work. Our Commitment to Quality and Safety At Onyx Civils, we prioritize safety and quality in everything we do. Our team is fully trained in health and safety, and our operators hold all the necessary qualifications. We are CHAS certified and members of the BSG safety group, ensuring a clean and safe working environment on all our projects. We also operate our own fleet of machinery, ranging from 1.7-ton to 25-ton machines, giving us the flexibility to handle any project. What Our Clients Say "Sanctus employed Onyx Civils to complete deep drainage amendments, snagging and pavement repairs within a live environment at ND6 in Bristol. Sanctus were impressed with the professional attitude of not only Onyx management but the site operatives whilst working alongside the public in completing the work safely and expediently, leaving each phase clean and tidy on completion, and ultimately achieving local authority sign off." - Robert Lucas, Construction Design Manager, Sanctus Limited "Since working with Onyx Civils I have found them to be nothing but a pleasure to work with. Nothing is ever a problem, they are always helpful in finding solutions to any problems that we encounter along the way, and hope to work with Rob and his team for many years to come. They are proactive, attend weekly meetings and work extremely well with our teams. In addition, they are all very nice people which really helps when working with them throughout the duration of a development." - Lee Dutton, Project Manager, Ashford Homes (South West) Ltd

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

Find answers to common questions about excavation contractors and hiring excavation professionals in the UK.

How deep can you excavate?

The depth of excavation achievable depends on multiple factors:
  • Soil Type and Stability: Stable, cohesive soils allow for deeper excavations than loose or unstable soils.
  • Groundwater Level: Excavations below the water table require dewatering techniques to manage water intrusion.
  • Equipment and Resources: The size and capabilities of excavation equipment influence the achievable depth.
  • Safety Regulations: OSHA and other safety regulations impose limitations on trench depths without proper shoring or sloping.
  • Project Requirements: The purpose of the excavation (basement, pool, foundation) determines the necessary depth.
Experienced excavation contractors can assess your site and project specifics to determine the safe and feasible excavation depth.

What are the risks associated with excavation?

Excavation, while essential for many projects, involves inherent risks, including:
  • Trench Collapses: Unstable trench walls can cave in, posing a severe risk to workers. Proper shoring and sloping are crucial safety measures.
  • Utility Damage: Striking underground utilities (gas, water, electric) can cause leaks, explosions, or electrocution. Accurate utility locates and careful digging are essential.
  • Falling Objects: Materials or equipment falling into excavations can injure workers. Securing work areas and using appropriate safety gear is vital.
  • Equipment Accidents: Operating heavy machinery involves risks of rollovers, collisions, or mechanical failures. Trained operators and proper equipment maintenance are critical.
  • Environmental Hazards: Excavated soil might contain hazardous materials (asbestos, lead). Proper testing and disposal procedures are necessary.
Reputable excavation contractors prioritize safety and have protocols to mitigate these risks.

What should I do before excavation starts?

Prior to the start of excavation, take these essential steps:
  • Clearly Define the Scope: Outline the project's goals, including the excavation area, depth, grade, and intended use.
  • Obtain Necessary Permits: Research and acquire any required permits from your local authorities.
  • Mark Utility Lines: Contact your utility companies to locate and mark underground utilities to prevent damage.
  • Communicate with Neighbors: Inform your neighbors about the project's timeline and potential noise or disruptions.
  • Prepare the Site: Clear any obstacles, such as vegetation, furniture, or structures, from the excavation area.
  • Discuss Safety Protocols: Review safety procedures with the contractor to ensure a safe work environment.
Taking these steps helps ensure a smooth and successful excavation project.

What is a soil engineer, and do I need one?

A soil engineer is a professional specializing in analyzing soil properties and their behavior under various conditions. They play a crucial role in:
  • Determining Soil Suitability: Assessing whether the soil can support the intended structure or load.
  • Recommending Foundation Types: Advising on the appropriate foundation design based on soil characteristics.
  • Addressing Drainage and Erosion Issues: Providing solutions to manage water runoff and prevent erosion.
  • Evaluating Slope Stability: Assessing the risk of landslides or soil movement on slopes.
You might need a soil engineer for projects involving:
  • Building on challenging soil types (expansive clay, loose sand, etc.)
  • Constructing large or complex structures
  • Excavating near slopes or retaining walls
  • Addressing drainage or erosion concerns
Your excavation contractor or local building department can advise if a soil engineer is necessary for your project.
