Laying the groundwork for successful construction

At Churngold Construction, we understand that a well-executed enabling works package is the key to keeping your project on track – before the first structure goes up. Whether you’re planning a major development or a smaller-scale build, our enabling works service ensures your site is safe, compliant, and ready for construction.

Enabling Works


What are enabling works?

Enabling works refer to the crucial early-phase construction activities that prepare a site for the main build. These works are often unseen but absolutely essential – from clearing ground and managing utilities, to mitigating site risks like UXO (unexploded ordnance) and poor ground conditions.

With decades of experience, Churngold acts as a trusted enabling works contractor for complex projects across the South West and beyond.
