HMS Ark Royal passing Gosport's Millenium sun dial.
Approach to the Forton Lake Bridge, Priddy's Hard.
What are you looking for when you need a contractor to carry out major civil engineering work for you? You will surely consider factors such as:
track record: the type, size and quality of previous projects
length of time in the business: bearing in mind 'there's no substitute for experience'
the people you'll deal with: their enthusiasm, stability, competence and flexibility
When you assess the merits of Graham Moyse Contractors Limited you will find all the right attributes. Established for over 20 years, our team approach and enthusiasm allows us to rise to a challenge. We are very strong on quality assurance which, coupled with employee certification plus our Health and Safety experience, means that your projects are in safe hands with Graham Moyse. We tend to specialise in 'awkward' projects that might defeat other companies. For example:
the demolition of buildings at Knowle Hospital included the safe lowering and removal of a huge 200-tonne water tank;
sea defences for the Ministry of Defence involved sheet piling;
removal of redundant overhead steam pipes at a Salisbury MOD site was a safety challenge;
the giant sun dial at Gosport - part of a £1.6 million Millennium Commission project - required specialised skills
drainage of 50 acres of swampy woodland, part of our work for the new Swanwick Air Traffic Control Centre, was far from straight forward;
decontamination work has included dealing with arsenic and cyanide.
We will be delighted to tell you about other challenging projects which have tested our experience and professionalism. The results show we are truly up to the task.
Clients find that our experience is invaluable; we feel they regard us as a company that can provide high quality cost-effective work on time. We understand that a client's requirements can vary during a project; we pride ourselves on responsiveness and in taking appropriate action quickly.
Our people are directly employed, giving us greater control over quality of workmanship and supervision generally. The company has a very low turnover of employees, which means that clients benefit from stability and continuity throughout a long project. If, as often happens, they choose us for repeat business, clients are likely to know the Graham Moyse individuals they are working with. Several staff have 10-15 years service, others have 5-8 years.
Leaving nothing to chance, we run and maintain all our own plant comprising over 30 major items of equipment.
