Cornwall Civils & Construction Reviews on Google, Public and Unedited

The Cornwall Civils & Construction reviews below are drawn straight from our Google Business Profile and update the moment a new one is posted. Nothing here is selected, shortened or rewritten by us.

The star rating and the number of reviews shown are whatever Google is showing today, not a figure typed onto this page.

Architects are among the clients who have left one, David Holt Architecture included. That matters on this kind of work, because architects are the clients whose drawings we build to.

Cornwall Civils handled a tricky concrete shuttering, steel work, and pour for us on an emergency job. They stepped in at very short notice and worked through nights and weekends to get it done. The quality of their work was excellent, and their commitment was outstanding.

Proven Groundworks and Civil Engineering, Backed by £5m Public Liability

A review records what one client thought of a finished job. This is what is in place before the next one starts.

£5m public liability, including groundworks and demolition up to 15 metres

Most public liability policies in this trade stop at the demolition exclusion. This one carries it.

If we have dug, poured or built something for you, a review takes a minute, and it is worth more to the next person deciding who to ring than anything we could write about ourselves here.

Google is the place that counts, and our review page takes you straight through to it in a couple of taps. Say what the job was and how it ran, whatever stood out on it. Trade clients are as welcome to leave one as homeowners.
