What Is Site Enabling?

Site enabling prepares a plot for construction work to begin safely and efficiently. It typically takes place after planning approval and before groundwork or structural work.

At South East Groundworks Ltd, our team handles every aspect required to prepare your site for handover to builders, engineers, or groundworkers. This ensures your timeline stays on track, and safety is built into your site from day one.

Our Site Enabling Services

Every project begins with a site survey and consultation to assess what is required. Our enabling packages include:

  • Traffic management planning
  • Diversion routes and temporary access roads
  • Site investigations and trial pits
  • Site clearance and muck away
  • Hoarding and perimeter security fencing
  • Scaffolding and signage installation
  • Utility isolations and service disconnections
  • Demolition and groundworks
  • Obtaining permits, permissions, and approvals

We also coordinate closely with architects, utility providers, and your project manager to ensure all enabling works are fully documented and signed off.
